Tools4CAP

💡 Have you checked out the #Tools4CAPacademy report on the #Inventory of methods & tools? In this inaugural module, we dive into its 4 tool categories, exploring their purpose and practical applications in #CAP Strategic Plans. Additionally, we take an in-depth look at some inventoried tools, exploring a few of them in more detail. The report is available in 16 languages, ensuring accessibility for a wider audience. ➡ Don't miss the opportunity to learn more: https://lnkd.in/d6SeJqWj

🚧 Work in Progress! The #Tools4CAP project is making significant strides in enhancing our inventory of methods and tools, assessing the potential of existing and innovative modeling tools, co-designing participatory and multi-level governance decision tools, and advancing the integration and interoperability of new data, technology, and #digitalisation for #CAP monitoring and evaluation.

🔍 Analysing data gaps for policy monitoring is one of the key objectives of #Tools4CAP. The #CAP 2023-2027 is ambitious in setting new performance indicators, so it is necessary to integrate additional sources of information and data into the policy monitoring framework. How will Tools4CAP address the integration and interoperability of new data sources and technology? • Focusing on technical agricultural technologies utilised by farmers in their daily activities. • Evaluating the potential of the valuable data sets generated and underexploited. • Analysing the use of landscape monitoring technologies and looking at how to integrate these data sources into the scope of monitoring some of the CAP performance indicators. • Specifying technical requirements, principles and an observation system for combining these data sources for use in monitoring the CAP Strategic Plans. Our partner Nikos Kalatzis from NEUROPUBLIC S.A. expands on the answer! 🧐 https://bit.ly/4dMDWCO Ecorys GAIA ΕΠΙΧΕΙΡΕΙΝ AEIDL (European Association for Innovation in Local Development) ITACyL (Instituto Tecnológico Agrario de Castilla y León) Abaco & Agronica Institute for Rural Development Research (IfLS) International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) CzechGlobe Wageningen University & Research Wageningen Economic Research OREADE BRECHE European Rural Development Network Teagasc AKI - Institute of Agricultural Economics EU CAP Network EU Science, Research and Innovation Slovak University of Agriculture

The European Commission has released a new study on funding for EU rural areas. The 2023-2027 programming period marks a shift in how rural development is approached, with national #CAP Strategic Plans designed to align with broader EU objectives. 🔎 Member States are required to evaluate their CAP Strategic Plans during and after the 2023-2027 period to assess contributions to CAP objectives. In such a way, CAP Strategic Plans requires a collective effort to embrace change, innovate, and leverage the best practices and tools available. In this context, the project #Tools4CAP – which stands for “Innovative Toolbox empowering effective CAP governance towards EU ambitions” – appears to support the improvement of the CAP governance and sustainability by aiding the implementation of 2023-2027 national Strategic Plans and preparing for post-2027 Plans. In the last year, Tools4CAP has published different deliverables that help to understand the scale of the current CAP and what tools are available for the design and monitoring of CSPs.  Learn about the contributions of the different CAP interventions analysed in the study as well as the work of the #Tools4CAP project and latest deliverables 👉 https://bit.ly/3AEKNj7

📢 The EU CAP Network's Evaluation Helpdesk has released a guideline aimed at enhancing the evaluation of #CAP income support instruments. With CAP income support interventions now incorporated into Member State CAP Strategic Plans (CSPs) for 2023-2027, their effectiveness and efficiency must be evaluated to comply with EU requirements for CAP assessment.  This guideline includes: 🔸 Judgment criteria and technical guidance for quantitative analyses. 🔸 General principles of assessment, effects on income levels, income volatility, and income disparities in supported farms. 🔸 Method for netting out the CAP impact on farm income. Discover the usefulness for #Tools4CAP project and how the project equips Member States with essential tools and methods for effectively designing and monitoring their CAP Strategic Plans. 👉 https://bit.ly/4duAFrd
