All participants will have the opportunity to actively meet and exchange ideas.<\/p>\n<p>The event will explore how forest innovation takes place by focusing on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Bringing innovation closer to rural areas by learning how to stimulate cooperation amongst different actors in forest value chains, and enhancing \u00a0positive spill-over effects, such as new products or value chains, services or business models, local jobs, or the valorisation of local biomass and resources.<\/li>\n<li>Stimulating 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.<\/li>\n<li>Bridging 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.<\/li>\n<li>Contributing 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.<\/li>\n<li>Inspiring 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.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<a href='https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&#038;id=aef6fd6339&#038;e=229d1c7ae8' class='small-button smallgreen' target=\"_blank\">You will find more information on the seminar event page<\/a>\n<p>If you\u00a0are interested in participating, <a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=839167e617&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"> <strong>please fill in the application form before 17 October 2021, 23:59 CET<\/strong><\/a>.<br \/>\nPlease note that, given the limited number of available places, we cannot accommodate all requests for participation.

The EIP-AGRI aims to foster innovation in the agricultural and forestry sectors by bringing research and practice closer together \u2013 in research and innovation projects as well as via the EIP-AGRI network.<\/p>\n<p>EIPs aim to streamline, simplify and better coordinate existing instruments and initiatives, and complement them with actions where necessary. Two specific funding sources are particularly important for the EIP-AGRI: the EU Research and Innovation framework, Horizon 2020\/Horizon Europe, as well as the EU Rural Development Policy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stay up to date<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you would like to be informed on the EIP-AGRI you can<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>visit our\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=6d4e50571c&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"><strong>website<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li>join the EIP-AGRI Network and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=60a8136ecf&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"><strong>register<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=0b856df350&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"><strong>www.eip-agri.eu<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li>subscribe to our monthly newsletter via\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=5f11089ba5&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"><strong>this link<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li>follow us on twitter\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=6ba86c5922&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"><strong>@EIPAGRI_SP<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li>join us on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/eip-agri.us7.list-manage.com\/track\/click?u=c40406f3cb81288b4051d5632&amp;id=ad76126d8b&amp;e=229d1c7ae8\"><strong>LinkedIn<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Request for expression of interest to the EIP-AGRI Seminar &#8216;Turning forest innovation into practice&#8217; Dear\u00a0Madam \/ Sir\u00a0.\u00a0, The European Commission&#8217;s Directorate-General for Agriculture and Rural Development (DG AGRI) and the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1418,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","_tribe_events_is_hybrid":"","_tribe_events_is_virtual":"","_tribe_events_virtual_video_source":"","_tribe_events_virtual_embed_video":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button_text":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_at":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_to":[],"_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_event":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_views":"","_tribe_events_virtual_url":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"class_list":["post-1419","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/1419","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=1419"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/1419\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1424,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/1419\/revisions\/1424"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=1419"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=1419"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.eriaff.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftribe_events_cat&post=1419"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
