PoliRural Future Oriented Collaborative Policy Development for Rural Areas and People

Coordinator: CESKA ZEMEDELSKA UNIVERZITA V PRAZE (CZ)

Policymakers can steer these developments in order to reduce their negative impacts but this requires knowing whether current policy instruments are effective, who is benefiting from them and in what measure, what driving forces will be most influential and how they will affect people, planet, profits and land-use.

About Horizon 2020 (2014–2020)

Horizon 2020 was the EU's flagship research and innovation programme for 2014–2020, with a budget of around €77 billion. It bundled FP7's strands with the EIT and the Competitiveness and Innovation Programme, introduced a stronger societal-challenge orientation, and pushed the funding logic toward closer-to-market innovation. New calls closed in 2020 but funded projects continued through 2024.

EU contribution: €6.0M awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 3.3 years from 2019-06-01 to 2022-09-30.
