Collect insights, experiences, examples of good practice and innovative ideas from members of the Thematic Group on how the role of farmers is recognized and how it could be recognized in their country and/or across Europe.
Investigate existing and innovative ways of raising awareness and recognizing the wider social contribution of farmers, as well as how to give greater importance to the profile of the agricultural profession and attract new people to the field of agriculture.
