On November 26-28, 2024, the General Assembly of the Horizon Europe project "Tools4CAP - A toolbox of innovative tools to enable effective management of the CAP to achieve EU objectives" gathered at the Hungarian Institute of Agricultural Economics (AKI) in Budapest, Hungary. During the two years of project implementation, the following core project results were achieved, in addition to other ongoing project results: An inventory of over 70 quantitative and qualitative instruments used in EU countries for the formulation of the Common Agricultural Policy, was created; 13 tools in total have been selected to be tested in 15 combinations (5 tests of qualitative/participatory tools; 5 tests of modelling tools; 5 tests of monitoring tools) in 10 EU Member States in the next project phase in (Poland, Spain, France, Hungary, Czechia, Italy, Slovenia, Netherlands, Germany and Greece); Training modules for the selected instruments have been developed and training has started - Tools4CAPacademy. The next stages of the project will include testing the application of the selected tools in the CAP process and making recommendations for improvement accordingly. Training will be provided on how each of the selected innovative tools could be applied to facilitate the CAP process in the Member States.
