SUMMARY:The Farm-to-Fork Strategy and cooperation in the agri-food supply chain- ENRD-supported virtual webinar
DESCRIPTION:The launch of the European Commission’s Forum on Best Practice in the AgriFood Supply Chain gathered expertise from across Europe at the ENRD-supported virtual webinar on 2 December. \nMore than 80 participants took part in the Forum’s first session which combined keynote perspectives from different European Commission services and practical experience from successful producer organizations. The event was opened by Maciej Golubiewski\, Head of Cabinet for Commissioner Wojciechowski\, and Michael Scannell\, Deputy Director General\, DG AGRI. They highlighted the value of sharing good practices in transparent supply-chain cooperation that strengthens positions of producers and others during the EU’s transition\nto more sustainable food systems. Delegates taking part included producers\, processors and retailers with information being provided about relevant Farm to Fork tools that can help drive a transition to sustainable food systems – such as the Code of Good Conduct for Responsible Food Business & Marketing Practices to which over 100 organizations have already signed up to. See the Forum event webpage to learn about its findings regarding CAP mechanisms available for supporting producer organizations (POs) and more. \n  \n

The main aim of the event was to support the strengthening of the ‘Forest Knowledge and Innovation Systems’ through knowledge exchange\, contribute to fostering cooperation\, education\, training and advice to support sustainable forest management\, and unlock the socio-economic and environmental potential of forests for EU rural areas. \nThe seminar specifically looked at the role of social innovation in supporting sustainable forest management. It considered four themes that are related to key priorities for forest management in the EU: \n\nAdaptation and mitigation of climate change\nCircular bioeconomy\nMonitoring in forest management\nForest biodiversity\, ecosystem services and multifunctionality\, including agroforestry\n\nThe specific objectives of the seminar were: \n\nBringing innovation closer to rural areas by learning how to stimulate cooperation amongst different actors in forest value chains\, and enhancing positive spill-over effects\, such as new products or value chains\, services or business models\, local jobs\, or the valorisation of local biomass and resources.\nStimulating the uptake of innovations and fostering cooperation in sustainable forest management practices\, by connecting relevant projects and initiatives in the domain of the 4 proposed themes.\nBridging knowledge and practice\, with a particular focus on a supportive environment for social innovation and on small and/or unmanaged forest holdings. Exploring ways to scale-up forest management\, foster cooperation or promote vocational training or advice.\nContributing to the research agendas and implementation of the new EU forest strategy for 2030 by identifying needs from practice that are related to the supportive environment for innovation.\nInspiring the setting-up of new initiatives that address key challenges of European forests\, and particularly the creation of new EIP-AGRI Operational Groups (OGs)\, especially in those countries and regions with a lower ratio of OGs on the subject.\n\nParticipants included forest owners\, foresters\, farmers working on aspects linked to forestry\, schools\, vocational education and training organisations\, advisory services\, researchers\, EU regions and Member States amongst others.
