Towards levelling up the EIP-AGRI – a common framework for multilevel functional capacity development

This Policy Brief is the result of cooperation between the two European Union funded projects LIAISON and PREMIERE.

PREMIERE (Preparing Multi-Actor Projects in a Co-Creative Way) receives funding from the Horizon Europe research and innovation programme. It aims to foster the development of sound, coherent and well-prepared multi-actor projects for
innovation in agriculture, forestry, and rural businesses.

LIAISON (Better Rural Innovation: Linking Actors, Instruments and Policies through Networks) received funding from the previous Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme. It aimed to develop methods and tools for the enhancement of the EIP-Agri, an initiative launched by the European Commission in 2012 with its goal of fostering competitive and sustainable agriculture and
forestry that “achieves more and better from less”.
