In 2004, Joniškis LAG was founded in Joniškis District Municipality for integrated solution of rural problems. Its establishment was based on the principle of horizontal and vertical partnership, covering the entire territory and population of rural residential area of Joniškis Municipality, bringing together representatives of governmental, business and non-governmental sectors for the purpose of implementing more rapid rural development. In the established management structure priority is given to rural inhabitants and it encourages “bottom up” initiative of rural inhabitants and gives them an opportunity to implement their ideas, which would contribute to rural development. The established management structure and capabilities of management staff enables successful achievement of objectives set for the LAG.

The proportions respected in constitution of the LAG, board comply with the requirements imposed on the partnership principles. Represetatives of social society make not less than 35 percent, not more then 49 percent, whereas the businessmen - up to 35 percent and local authority representatives make up to 30 percent each. They ensure the principal requirement set for the LAG, namely the observance of partnership principle. The LAG meets all requirements imposed on sex balance and the field of engaging the youth into the LAG activity.

The area of the considered territory covers 1 143.05 km² or 99,2 per cent of the area of Joniškis District Municipality, populated by 15 000 or 61,7 per cent of Joniškis District Municipality population (total 24 300 inhabitants).
