LAG Podisul Mediaşului

Founded in November 2007, the association has the mission of developing the territory of the Mediaș Plateau, composed of 13 communes and 1 city: Dumbrăveni, Alma, Aţel, Axente Sever, Bazna, Blăjel, Brateiu, Dârlos, Hoghilag, Micăsasa, Moşna, Şeica Mică, Târnava, Valea Viilor (SB), Viişoara and Zagăr (MS).

Fortified Churches Foundation

The Saxon fortified churches are administered by the Evangelical Church of CA in Romania. Due to the emigration of the Transylvanian Saxons, the number of parishioners decreased drastically, so that many of the churches are no longer used at all or only very rarely. At the same time, the very population that erected and maintained the monuments disappeared from the villages. This is the reason that led to the establishment of the Fortified Church Foundation, which is an institution specialized in preserving the church's cultural heritage.

Hârtibaciu Microregion Local Action Group

The Hârtibaciu Microregion LAG was born in 2006 in order to protect the special but sensitive nature, to keep alive the local traditions and to offer a better perspective to its inhabitants. The association is an instrument, financed by the LEADER program, for the realization and concretization of the common principles from the 15 administrative units from the LAG territory.
