The AKIS for a modern and sustainable agriculture: The role of advisors, supporting CAP interventions and Horizon Europe projects
Agricultural production is undergoing a systemic transformation and effective Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKISs) are key to achieving visionary goals like the European Green Deal. AKIS success relies strongly on advisors, as acknowledged by the crosscutting objective "Modernization of Agriculture" of the new CAP policy framework. For this goal, it requires all advisors to be fully integrated in the AKIS. However, how this can be achieved in an EU-wide system marked by diversity at national, regional and even local level, with ongoing trends towards decentralization and privatization is yet to be fully understood.
The workshop aims to offer a platform for advisors and other AKIS stakeholders to discuss the opportunities of new CAP interventions, explore advisors' expected role in AKIS, the barriers and opportunities they face as well as to understand how Horizon Europe projects can support them navigating this transformation process. After two keynotes and 3 inputs on national AKISs the participants will engage in group discussions and experience exchange, followed by a final session which will synthesize the findings and feed them back in the appropriate AKIS channels.
It will take place at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in Lugo on 22 June 2022 at 14:00 in the auditorium and will be held in English with simultaneous translation into Spanish and German.
