Kick off meeting in Vienna
In September 2007, the current ERA-NET project period ended; at the same time eight transnational research projects initiated under the auspices of CORE Organic was launched. In order to start the new research projects, a two-day kick-off meeting was held in Vienna on 13-14 September 2007
> See the programme (PDF)
During the meeting the eight new transnational research projects were presented and potential benefits and constraints of transnational research cooperations in organic food and farming through an ERANET were discussed. Furthermore, the outputs, findings and the "lessons learned" during the 3-year period of the ERA-NET project CORE Organic were presented and discussed.
Below you will find all presentations given at the Vienna kick-off meeting in PDF format.
