RURITAGE participated in the 2023 edition of EU Agriresearch, held on 31 May and 1 June, in Brussels, Belgium.
This year’s edition of EU Agriresearch gave participants the opportunity to engage with scientists, farmers, rural communities, industry, advisors, policymakers, citizens and NGO representatives. It provided an overview of European research and innovation activities and their achievements in agriculture, forestry and rural development. Participants were invited to share their views on how to shape the future EU agricultural research and innovation agenda. Field visits were organised after the conference.

“It has been great to meet and learn with other projects working on rural opportunities – Hanna Elisabet Åberg, representing the network, explained -. RURITAGE was showed as a video: in the photo you can see Ralph Lister from Take Art“.
Building on the success of the 2016 and 2018 editions, participants found out how research and innovation activities are enabling farmers, foresters and people living in rural areas to meet the environmental, social, economic and sustainability goals of the EU and its links through the common agricultural policy. The conference was also be a great occasion to network with over 500 peers, with many more participants following live online.
