A Strategic Community of Practice and Observatory for the Agrifood P4S
AGRIFOODSKILLS contributes to a strategic development of the community of practice among the members of the Agrifood Pact for Skills (Agrifood P4S) to reskilling and upskilling the workforce in the plant and animal production, agrifood and veterinary sectors, with innovative content (deep tech, AI, future foods, digital and green skills), considering the outcomes of past blueprint projects.
AGRIFOODSKILLS project aims to act as a backbone for the Agrifood P4S, by sharing the outcomes generated by the project to the members of the community of practice. Long term sustainability of the action is guaranteed by the Observatory, a virtual light but effective structure organised in working groups that will bring forward the activities carried in the project with a strong connection with the members of the Pact.
The members of the Agrifood P4S will be engaged in the activities of the Observatory by means of annual meetings and dissemination events. The 29 partners consortium from 13 countries have a vast experience in Erasmus+ projects, and will collaborate to identify skills needed (including urgent ones) and gaps, apply new lines of competences, update the EU strategies on skills and country roadmaps to reflect the country’s needs and diversities while keeping EU quality standards (ESCO, EQAVET) to address the mobility of learners through Europe.
The AGRIFOODSKILLS project, complementing and strengthening the FIELDS and I-RESTART Blueprints on agriculture and veterinary activities, will provide the tools to tackle the future challenges by offering microcredentials grouped in lines of competences (EQF levels 3-5, 6-8).
The Policy Forum 2050 will serve as a strategic platform for guiding the direction and resources of working groups within the Observatory, offering vital corrections and proposals to its activities. With input from EU Commission DGs and international experts, the Forum 2050 is uniquely positioned to address global challenges and shape future policies.

Curricula
The Curricula/courses database complements the information on VET schools, VET providers and other educational providers in general.
Best Practice
The best practices database provides information of successes in the project areas: sustainability, digitalisation, bio-economy, soft-skills, new technologies and training in agriculture, forestry and related sectors (agri-food and forest-based industries).
Funding Opportunities
Partners studied and listed the funding opportunities available to support the skills strategies and the future use of FIELDS’ outputs at regional/national and EU levels.
Projects
The projects database provides information on the state of the art of the European projects with reference of agriculture, forest and related sectors (Bio-economy, Digitalisation, Soft skills and Sustainability).
Regulatory Frameworks
The regulatory framework is studied to make sure that the strategy can be implemented locally, to ensure that the results of the project will continue to be used after its completion
Newsletter
The newsletters report the main developments achieved in the project and presented in the dissemination plan as well as through the stakeholders from each partner database.
