Call
Summary
The general objective of the call is to build trust within the EU and amongst all citizens, farmers and non-farmers alike and to promote information about the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) (i.e. the policy and its benefits for the citizens of the EU). The focus should be on addressing misperceptions and disinformation about European agriculture and the CAP, using facts and backed up with data with a view to raising public awareness on the relevance of EU support to agriculture and rural development through the CAP.
Detailed Call Description
The information measures should include one or several activities such as:
- the production and distribution of print, multimedia or audiovisual material;
- web and social media outreach activities;
- media events;
- conferences, seminars, workshops;
- studies on CAP-related issues (if required to support the implementation of the information measures).
The target public for the themes is the general public (in particular young people in urban areas) and/or farmers and other parties active in rural areas. More specifically:
- For school children, teachers and university students: novel approaches should be used to engage with young people and raise their awareness of the new CAP and the contribution that it makes in many areas such as the climate change challenge, food, healthy and high-quality eating as a lifestyle choice, in relation also with the EU School Scheme for Milk, Fruit and Vegetables and the Tartu Call.
