Multifarm_EU: Spreading Multifuncionality in the European Union
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014,

Helping rural areas to meet the economic, social and environmental challenges of the 21st century has become an overall EU priority. The Rural Development Policy (2007-2013) focuses on three thematic axes, of which especially the third axis ‘improving quality of life and diversification of the rural economy’ promotes training, information and entrepreneurship for women, young people and older workers (EU Council Decision, 2006). Our project aims at addressing these priorities by disseminating, and thus providing European young farmers with a training tool based on case studies designed to adapt a farm to the multifunctionality concept or to start a multifunctional farm. The objectives of the project are: - To disseminate further the training product of the Agri-Mutltifunctionality II project; - To raise awareness among European young farmers on the concept of multifunctionality; - To provide evidence that these practices can improve economic and social sustainability of the rural areas; - To help young farmers to become ‘greener’ in line with the Europe 2020 priorities and through the application of the multifunctionality concept on their farms. The project will be developed in the following implementation Work Packages based on different kinds of dissemination activities: - Dissemination through ICTs; - Mainstreaming; - Dissemination Events. The profiles of the core partners involved in the project are the following: CEJA: is the European Council of Young Farmers. It is “the voice” of the young European farmers and gives them consultancy, training and orientation. It gathers 30 members associations from 24 European countries. GRANAFORMA: is a vocational and continuous training centre that has developed important programmes for farmers.
