Project website

Project website to communicate the project and its findings. A plug-in will be added to translate content into national languages.

Practice abstract - Batch 1

Practice abstracts (PAs) in the EIP-AGRI format with the aim to facilitate the flow of information from projects to end-users (farmers and foresters) and share relevant innovative and practice-oriented knowledge developed in the projects.

Communication kit

Creation and delivery of the complete visual identity materials to partners in order to ensure the transfer of a recognisable and coherent image of the project in all communication and dissemination activities.

Documents, reports (18)

Mapping of AF stakeholders
