Union européenne 

    Le CIHEAM entretient depuis longtemps des relations solides avec les organes de l'Union Européenne (UE), notamment avec la Commission et ses Directions (DG Recherche, DG Agriculture et DG DEVCO) et le Parlement européen. Afin de renforcer le dialogue et la coopération avec la Commission et pour bénéficier des opportunités dans le cadre de la coopération déléguée, le CIHEAM a fait une demande de reconnaissance. Cela permettra à la Commission Européenne de confier au CIHEAM l'exécution du budget dans le cadre de la gestion indirecte de son budget. La première étape de la procédure de reconnaissance relative au statut juridique du CIHEAM a été achevée avec succès en mars 2015. La deuxième étape liée à l'évaluation des piliers est en cours.

Projets conjoints de l'Union européenne et du CIHEAM 

 

Projet "RELACS" (outils et technologies au service de l'environnement)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM Bari    Replacement of Contentious Inputs in Organic Farming Systems' (RELACS) will foster the development and facilitate the adoption of cost-efficient and environmentally safe tools and technologies, to phase out the dependency on and use of inputs considered contentious in organic farming systems.   RELACS website       Projet "SMARTAL" (gestion des zones rurales et agricoles en Albanie)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM Montpellier    Designing a Master for 3 Albanian Universities in European innovation for a sustainable management of Albanian territories, rural areas and agriculture in the context of the decentralization process as well as the accession to the European Union process.   SMARTAL website.       Projet "ENPARD" (politiques agricoles et rurales)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM Montpellier   Launched in 2012 by the European Union, the European Neighbourhood Programme for Agriculture and Rural Development (ENPARD) is a policy initiative to strengthen the partnership between the European Union and EU Neighbourhood countries in the field of agriculture and rural policies, recognising the major contribution these areas can make to the development and stability of countries.   ENPARD website.       Projet "EDAMUS" (politiques d'alimentation saines et qualitatives)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM Montpellier   The "EDAMUS" ("May we eat" in Latin) MASTER in Sustainable Management of Food Quality is an Erasmus Mundus (Action 1) Master. It is intended to meet the increasing need to better understand and anticipate the complex problems of food quality management in the European Union or at international level. Food quality and food health policies must take account of various factors related to socioeconomic, social, technological and biological issues.   EDAMUS website.       Projet "ECOWASTE4FOOD" (gaspillage alimentaire)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM Montpellier    Implemented in the framework of the Interreg European Programme (2017-2020), the ECOWASTE4FOOD project aims to address the crucial issue of food waste, not only to put an end to an unacceptable situation which leads to the loss of up to 30% of the agricultural production that is not consumed or is consumed in a wrong way in terms of health, but also to demonstrate that food waste could be at the source of a resource efficient and environmentally friendly economy for territories.   ECOWASTE4FOOD website.       Projet "EULEBPOT" (amélioration des qualités phytosanitaires dans le secteur de la pomme de terre)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM Bari   This project (EU-Lebannon Potato project) aims to support and foster quality improvement and phytosanitary safety in the potato sector through the reinforcement of the Lebanese Network for Phytosanitary Control, a proper legal and procedures framework and the provision of technical assistance to potato producers and a diagnostic laboratory in condition to assess the Lebanese potato safety in accordance with international standards and the Lebanese-European Union Association Agreement.   EULebPot website       Projet "HNV LINK" 

 

Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Montpellier   “High Nature Value Farming: Learning, Innovation and Knowledge” is dedicated to developing and sharing innovations that support HNV (High Nature Value) farming systems and communities by simultaneously improving their socio-economic viability and environmental efficiency.   HNV-LINK website

 

 

 

Projet "ACLIMAS" (ressources en eaux et changements climatiques)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Bari   Funded within the Sustainable Water Integrated Management (SWIM) programme of the European Commission, ACLIMAS addresses water and climate change by promoting in 6 Mediterranean countries / areas the demonstration, implementation, dissemination of the research results of previous EC-funded initiatives. The project is aimed at sustainable improvement of the agricultural water management and a broader socio-economic development of target areas in the context of adaptation to climate change, increasing water scarcity, and desertification risks.    ACLIMAS website       Projet "MED-SPRING" (défis tels que l'énergie, la nutrition qualitative à prix abordable, la raréfication des ressources)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Bari   The Mediterranean Science, Policy, Research & Innovation Gateway (MED-SPRING) project - is a coordination and support action built on the previous experience of the INCO.NET MIRA, but adapted to the new reality of the Euro-Mediterranean policy and the general orientations defined in the Euro-Mediterranean Conference of Barcelona (2-3 April 2012). MED-SPRING is focused on three societal challenges (Energy, High Quality Affordable Food, and Scarcity of resources) and aims at tackling policy objectives by creating a dialogue and coordination platform of governmental institutions, research organisations, associations and civil society.   MED-SPRING website     Projet "ERANET-MED" (innovation et recherche compétitive en zone Euro-méditerranéenne)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Bari

 

The main aim of the project ERANET-MED is to enhance Euro-Mediterranean co-ownership through innovation and competitive research in the societal challenges of the region. The project aims at reducing fragmentation of programming in the Mediterranean by increasing coordination among national research programmes of European Member States, associated countries and Mediterranean partner countries.   ERANET-MED website

 

    Projet "FORESTERRA" (coordination scientifique et intégration des forêts méditerranéennes)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Zaragoza   Part of the ERA-NET initiative, Foresterra aims to reinforce the scientific coordination and integration of Mediterranean forest research programmes as well as scientific cooperation with Mediterranean countries (including EU and non-EU member states) and with other Mediterranean Climate Areas (MCA) like Australia, South Africa, Chile and California.  FORESTERRA has partners from twelve countries: Spain, France, Italy, Turkey, Portugal, Tunisia, Morocco, Bulgaria, Slovenia, Croatia, Greece and Algeria, as well as two international institutions, the European Forest Institute (EFI) and CIHEAM-Zaragoza.   FORESTERRA website       Projet "LEGATO" (promouvoir la culture des légumineuses en Europe)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Zaragoza   The LEGumes for the Agriculture of Tomorrow (LEGATO) project has been conceived to promote the culture of grain legumes in Europe by identifying priority issues currently limiting grain legume cultivation and devising solutions in terms of novel varietal development, culture practices, and food uses. LEGATO will develop tools and resources to enable state of the art breeding methodology and to exploit fully the breadth of genetic resources available.   LEGATO website       Projet "MEDISLANDPLANT" (variétés de plantes en voie d'extinction)   Coordinateur : CIHEAM-Chania   The project aims to ensure the survival of threatened plant species in the Mediterranean through ex-situ conservation measures. The initiative is led by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew (UK) in collaboration with six conservation organisations on the main Mediterranean islands (Sicily, Sardinia, Cyprus, Corsica, Crete, and Mallorca). The key outcomes of the project will include the protection of 900 endangered plant taxa, the development of seed specialists in the region, increased collaboration between plant conservation agencies and public awareness on the value and vulnerability of local flora.   MEDISLANDPLANT website
