  • EU Policy Brief on Food & Cultural Heritage
    EU policy brief on food & cultural heritage 1 with the contribution EU policy brief on food & cultural heritage EXECUTIVE SUMMARY _________________________________________________________________________ Citizens across Europe are paying increasing attention to their food choices, partly out of concern for their health, but also for ethical or sustainability considerations. This trend has been strongly reinforced as a result of the COVID-19 crisis which disrupted food supply chains, but also reminded Europeans of the contribution of food to their physical and mental well-being. In parallel, culture remains a paramount underlying factor influencing citizens’ food choices, and an important link to traditions and cultural representations. However, in an era where global supply chains are standardising the food most easily accessible to consumers, the link between citizens and their food heritage deserves to be better protected. Food heritage can and must play a key role in the shift towards sustainable food production and consumption that is needed to address today’s key societal challenges, such as Europe’s post-pandemic recovery and the fight against climate change, in line with the Commission’s Green Deal commitments. At the same time, food culture must be part of the discussion on the wide- ranging immediate impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures implemented to contain it, which are taking a considerable toll on the agriculture and heritage worlds. The links between food and culture are too often overlooked in policy-making although the production and consumption of food are strongly influenced by our cultural environment. In EU policy terms, this translates into a lack of coherence between food, agricultural and cultural policies.

European science and innovation in a new geopolitical arena. The Hague (authors: Hessels, L., S. Y. Tjong Tjin Tai, J. Jansen & J. Deuten) European research and innovation in a new geopolitical arena 3 Foreword This publication brings together information of relevance to the European Union’s research policy. In particular, the Rathenau Instituut aims to describe what research cooperation in the EU (the European Research Area) means for academic research in the Netherlands. In the coming months, the European Commission will be presenting the successor to the Horizon 2020 Framework Programme for Research and Innovation, called ‘Horizon Europe’. The EU has become more important than ever as a source of research funding since the launch of Horizon 2020. Horizon 2020 had a budget of 78.6 billion euros for the 2014-2020 period. Dutch researchers have been relatively successful at obtaining funding from the programme, making the EU an important source of funding for research in the Netherlands. But the EU has become more than simply an additional source of funding for researchers. It also influences the agenda setting, programming, organisation, utilisation, and infrastructures of scientific research. For example, the Horizon 2020 programme identified societal challenges as guideposts for research. The European Research Council encourages research ‘excellence’ by organising funding across the EU on a competitive basis.

  • Farm to Fork Strategy May 2021 - (AAC 2021-07)
    Farm to Fork Strategy May 2021 - (AAC 2021-07) The Aquaculture Advisory Council (AAC) gratefully acknowledges EU funding support. The Aquaculture Advisory Council (AAC) welcomes the European Commission’s Farm to Fork strategy for a fair, healthy and environmentally friendly food system (COM(2020), 381 final). The AAC has discussed the strategy, and this recommendation summarizes the position of the AAC. Framework for sustainable aquaculture: 1. Recognizes the strategic intent that the transition to a sustainable food system will deliver affordable foods, improve the incomes of primary producers, improve environmental and animal welfare outcomes and reinforce the EU’s competitiveness. 2. Calls on the Commission to substantiate the claim that human and financial investments in new solutions for aquaculture promise higher returns by creating added value and reducing costs. 3. Stresses that sustainable growth must be based on business investment predictability and legal certainty. 4. Welcomes an action plan for organic aquaculture involving promotion campaigns and green public procurement, recognizes that the Strategic Guidelines and the action plan for organic aquaculture shall play an active role in eliminating the bottlenecks for growth in organic aquaculture, supports a ‘significant increase in organic aquaculture’ by 2030 to ensure that organic aquaculture keeps pace with the Farm to Fork objective for organic agricultural land. 5. Stresses the need to also support and promote greater sustainability in aquaculture, which is essential to improving the EU’s aquatic food self-sufficiency. 6. Stresses that expansion of sustainable marine aquaculture (e.g. extractive aquaculture) could help alleviate the land constraint relative to other animal-based foods and their associated emissions from land-use change1.

  • Creative Europe Programme 2021-2027
    BRIEFING EU Legislation in Progress 2021-2027 MFF Creative Europe programme 2021-2027 OVERVIEW Having considered the possibility of merging the Creative Europe programme with other programmes supporting European values, rights and justice, the European Commission has decided to continue the Creative Europe programme as a stand-alone programme, increasing its budget by 17 %. The only programme focusing exclusively on cultural and creative activities and enterprises, it falls under the 'Cohesion and values' heading of the 2021-2027 multiannual financial framework. The previous programme focused on the economic dimension of the cultural sector and its contribution to job creation and economic growth. Some stakeholders had voiced concern at taking such a strongly economic approach to culture. Under the new programme, the economic dimension is one axis alongside the social dimension, as well as culture's contribution to international relations. The new framework for cultural policy therefore highlights not only the economic dimension of the cultural and creative sectors, but also the role of culture in social cohesion and its relation to creative and artistic freedom and diversity, and freedom and plurality of media. The Parliament, Council and Commission started trilogue negotiations in autumn 2019. After an almost year-long break, the negotiations resumed in the second half of 2020 when the Council, the Commission and the EP reached a common agreement. The new programme was then finally adopted in May 2021, but applies with retroactive effect

  • Creative Europe Programme Lead DG: EAC Associated Dgs: CNECT I
    Programme Statements DB2021 HEADING 3: Security and citizenship Creative Europe Programme Lead DG: EAC Associated DGs: CNECT I. Overview What the programme is about? With a budget of EUR 1.46 billion, Creative Europe is the European Commission’s framework programme for support to the Europe’s culture and audiovisual sectors. The programme is divided into two sub-programmes, Culture and MEDIA, and is supported by a cross-sectoral strand. Its objectives are to promote cultural and linguistic diversity and enhance the competitiveness of these sectors, by supporting small independent production and distribution companies in the audiovisual field as well as a wide range of operators in the cultural field. The Creative Europe programme contributes to the political priorities of the Commission, in particular relating to jobs, growth and investment and the European Digital Single Market. By allowing participation of non-EU cultural and creative operators, the programme also contributes to making the EU a stronger global actor. At the same time, the programme helps address current political and societal challenges through the power of culture to reach the hearts and minds of citizens and boost confidence in our shared European values. The MEDIA sub-programme provides added value through supporting independent producers and distributors and their audiovisual works (mainly films and TV programmes including live action, animation, fiction and documentaries as well as some video games) in order to ensure that they operate and circulate across Europe and globally, through financial support to the development and creation of audiovisual works, their cross-border distribution, including online, financing of promotional activities and building the skills and talents in the sector.
