ENRD Workshop on ‘Generational Renewal through Rural Development’

This workshop, jointly organised by the ENRD Contact Point and the European Council of Young Farmers (CEJA), focused on identifying how various Rural Development Programmes Measures could support generational renewal.

The workshop discussed challenges faced by young farmers and new entrants, such as access to land, finance, training, and knowledge. It facilitated cooperation and exchange between Network Support Unit representatives and young farmers and new entrants, taking into account examples from across the EU and the outcomes from both Cork 2.0 and the EIP-Agri Focus Group on "New entrants into farming".
