In the context of digitalisation of rural areas, the intersection of scientific innovation and policy development is crucial. Join this CODECS Science-Policy interface meeting, exploring how science and policy intersect in the digitalisation of agriculture and rural areas.
By fostering discussions among experts, policymakers, and stakeholders, this session aims to deepen our understanding of how digitalisation can enhance rural economies, agriculture, education, and overall community well-being. Through this collaborative dialogue, we seek to inform evidence-based policies that harness the benefits of digital innovations for sustainable and inclusive rural development.
This webinar will also explore the role Multi-Actor Approach (MAA) in European projects and the role of Agricultural Knowledge and Innovation Systems (AKIS) in digital ecosystems.
The event will be interactive, fostering discussions and peer-to-peer learning. It is a unique opportunity to interact with stakeholders from diverse backgrounds and contribute to the public conversation able to shape most relevant policies that impact the lives of people in rural areas.
