abstract: Communities within rural areas are facing complex challenges. Dealing with these challenges requires the cooperation of various actors. Coalitions can be considered a step in the spiralling process towards sustainable and place-based development. The aim of this study is to identify coalitions to support sustainable development in the area around Allardsoog and to analyse the role of place leadership. This research is conducted in the context of the Radius project started by the theatre group The PeerGroup. In addition, semi-structured interviews are conducted with local governments and organisations. The findings indicate that if leadership roles are not taken up by local actors, an external actor can initiate actions by performing place leadership and contribute to a joint spirit within the area. In order to support coalition building within an area across borders it is crucial that the actors involved look beyond the geographical and sectoral borders and seek collaboration.
