Fuelling the potential of advisors for innovation

i2connect 

 “Connecting advisors to boost interactive innovation in agriculture & forestry”

Start-End: 2019-2024

APCA coordinates the European i2connect project which aims to promote interactive innovation between the different actors of agricultural and forestry advisory services. Designed at European scale and working in a collaborative way, we wish to make interactive innovation a lever of action in the advisory services. This project is part of the Chambers of Agriculture Strategic Project and will contribute in particular to amplify the support of groups of farmers on innovative themes and to accelerate the knowledge sharing within the network of Chambers of Agriculture and with its partners. The expected results are, among others:  the creation of an online database of advisory organisations and advisors in Europe; the elaboration of 30 national reports and inventories (AKIS); the training of trainers (50 people), advisors (600), managers of advisory services (80) and other stakeholders.
