This report and the factsheets on the three breakout groups discussions summarise the outcomes of the EU CAP Network workshop on Durability of Investments. It took place in Brussels, Belgium, on 14 December 2023.
- 2023-2027
The overall aim of the workshop was to exchange best practices among EU Member States (MS), particularly regarding the durability of public and private productive investments and investments for non-agricultural enterprises in rural areas under the 2014-22 European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), and to consider MS approach under the 2023-27 CAP Strategic Plans (CSPs).
Specifically, the workshop based on the European Court of Auditors' recommendations aimed to:
- Target better spending on viable projects,
- Mitigate the risks of diversion of funded assets for personal use,
- Identify relevant approaches and sources of information on assessment of the continued operation of EU funded projects.
The workshop was open to stakeholders from all Member States, both those who have included specific durability conditions in their CSPs 2023-2027 and those who have not. The event was of particular interest to Managing Authorities, Paying Agencies, evaluators and organisations representing members who make CAP-supported investments as well as National CAP Networks.
