EIP-AGRI Workshop 'Operational Groups: First experiences': Final report

After several years of preparation of the EIP-AGRI, the very first Operational Groups (OGs) are now established and they are running projects with funding from national and regional rural development programmes. In April 2016, DG AGRI organised a two-day workshop in Italy to explore the initial experiences of setting up OGs and the early stages of project implementation. This report gives a brief overview of the presentations and discussions that took place.
