Happy #EuropeDay from the #CODECS project!

We celebrate collaboration and innovation 🤝As we work to maximize the CO-benefits of agricultural digitalisation through enabling digital ecosystems, we are proud to be part of EU's journey towards a sustainable & resilient future🌱

🟢How are European countries governing agri and rural digitalisation❔

🟢Is digitalisation supporting specific agri models❔

🟢What are the main challenges and opportunities for digitalisation in agri❔

Some anwers in the blog post and deliverable.

Athena RC Fondazione Bruno Kessler - FBK CODECS SMART ERA We had 2 breakout sessions to have a dialogue between policy analysts and researchers on:

*Multi Actor approach and how the digitalisation can bring transformative digital solutions

*How AKIS can be a driver for sustainable transformation
Thanks to Emils Kilis & María Alonso

Two interesing dilemmas emerging from the CODECS Knowledge transfer accelerator webinar focusing on sustainable digitalisation in rural areas:
1. Providing DIRECTIONALITY towards sustainable digitalisation and Multi-Actor Approaches leading to wider options (@gbrunori)

Muy contenta de ver que los resultados preliminares de nuestro estudio cualitativo dentro de CODECS a nivel europeo, está alineado.

Un avance: la digitalización en la agricultura se puede ver como un proceso con distintas fases, cada una, con sus barreras

Athena RC Matteo Gerosa from Fondazione Bruno Kessler - FBK presents at the CODECS Science Policy webinar on rural digitalisation the innovative approach pioneered by SMART ERA Projects to develop Smart Innovation Packages to develop and revitalise rural communities.

Athena RC 'Twin Skills for the Twin Transition' Report:
Defining Green Digital Skills and Jobs👇

Moving from policy to science Eleni Toli from Athena RC urges us to think rural in terms of #system interrelating:
*digital transition and transformation
*climate resilience
*and just transition,
where #digital is a #means to an #people -centred end, not and end in itself.

Francesco Iadecola from the European Commission´s EU Agriculture🌱 joins our CODECS Science Policy meeting on digitalisation in agriculture and rural development, showcasing the diverse and interrelated of policies, programmes and research from the EU working towards this goal.

What does a green and digital future means for the EU´s Future? EU_ScienceHub has a number of key reports on #EUForesight #twintransitions

It's happening!

Stefan Muench and Katrine Jensen from JRC EU_ScienceHub discuss at the CODECS Science-Policy-Interface their recent work on Foresight by 2050 on Green and Digital Transition in Europe and then more specifically in Agriculture.

We start a packed Science Policy CODECS webinar with contributions from policy and science on Sustainable Digitalisation Agriculture and Rural Development. Our coordinator Professor gianluca brunori, starts off aiming high, outlining an EU 'Agricultural Digitalisation Utopia'.
