project - Research and innovation
VALERIE
VALERIE
Objectives
Many EU and nationally funded research projects in the fields of agriculture and forestry provide excellent scientific results. However, outreach and translation of these results into farming and forestry practices is limited. The challenge is to boost innovation by facilitating the uptake of formal and empirical knowledge, and its integration into field practices.

Activities
The VALERIE project develops a series of activities to:
? develop and implement a method to drive innovation - in case studies with stakeholder communities - through an iterative process of articulating the demand and tailoring the supply of specific knowledge (using a stakeholder-driven method)
? translate research outcomes with innovation potential into formats for use by end-users (farmers, advisers, and enterprises in the supply chain)
? establish a generic infrastructure that will enable ?fresh? stakeholder communities to apply our method, beyond the life of the VALERIE project.
