  WHO ARE WE  


 
The latest trends of thought confer a growing importance to the local scope both in the management and optimisation of the economical resources.
The prominence of the local institutions in the generation of wealth, jobs and distribution of social welfare is defended at the international forums. Their closeness to the life in the town allows these Agencies to adapt policies to the reality of their environment.

The Development Agencies have developed in this ideological context and, together with them, the need to find an institution able to become a common place for all of them, a place where to exchange information, to offer support and to take advantage of the best of each Agency for the benefit of all of them.

Garapen was founded in 1992 as the Basque Association of Development Agencies.
 
  To support the establishment of new Development Agencies in the Basque Country and to consolidate the ones already established.
To generate forums of discussion where the activities carried out by the Development Agencies can be dealt with.
To consolidate the task that the town councils are carrying out through the Development Agencies in order to improve the economical context of the small and middle-sized companies and to create employment at the local scope.
To serve as a representative set of proposals of all the agents and entities involved in the Local and Regional Development before the Civil Administrations and the international Institutions.
