Assistance in developing the Walloon Rural Development Strategy for 2014-2020

The Walloon Region requested assistance to prepare its Rural Development Programme in the framework of the programming of European funds over 2014-2020. Several tasks are undertaken to do so. First of all, an analysis of the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) of the Region was performed taking account of the objectives of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD) and the EU 2020 Strategy. This analysis lead to the establishment of a list of priority issues. This basis was then used to develop a Strategic Orientations Project, with proposals of priorities, measures and indicators for the 2014-2020 Rural Development Programme. The results of this analysis were then presented to various stakeholders concerned by the EAFRD. The results of these consultations are taken into account to write the Strategic Report, provided to the Region with a list of priorities, measures and indicators, as well as an analysis of their coherence with reference documents (Regulation proposals for the CAP and the EAFRD, and the EU 2020 Strategy)
