municipal-level community leadership campaigns/events (at the municipal level)
If I understand the source text correctly, the idea would be that via such campaigns (or events) organizers would create interest in community involvement at the municipal level. And I think that emphasizing 'municipal level' may be important, as the idea of 'local' within rural communities may be conceptualized in different ways en zonas rurales de algunos países de habla hispana. I came to appreciate this first-hand (when I was teaching at the Universidad del Papaloapan) in rural Loma Bonita, Oaxaca (Mexico), where some of the terms were especially nuanced in this regard.

'(municipal-level) community leadership campaigns/events (at the municipal level)'
In this context, I think either of the two might be helpful.
