Agrienergy
AGRINERGY (EU Bioenergy Policies and their effects on rural areas and agriculture policies) is a Specific Support Action (SSA) within the Sixth EU Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development (FP6). The project aims to analyse and understand the socio-economic, environmental and societal issues of EU bioenergy policies and their effects on future Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), and how they fit into the concept of sustainable rural development.

Climate change adaptation by spatial planning in the alpine space
Climate change will affect spatial development, including land use, socio-economic activities and life-sustaining ecosystem services, in the Alpine Space more severely than in other European regions. Temperature increase, changes in amount, distribution and intensity of precipitation, decreasing snow cover, and more severe weather extremes are expected to cause a variety of adverse climate change impacts, but may also present new opportunities. Growing risks from water scarcity, heat waves and natural hazards (floods, landslides, storms, rockfalls, forest fires) will threaten settlements, physical infrastructure, utilities, material assets and human lives. As a consequence, future development options may be confined and new spatial conflicts, e.g. between risk prevention and land use interests, may emerge. Doing nothing will increase vulnerability of Alpine regions and municipalities, and therewith damages and costs. Spatial planning has major steering capacity in accomplishing adaptation, containing vulnerability and increasing resilience. However, the knowledge, procedures and tools required for fulfilling the key role in adaptation attributed to spatial planning by the EU Green Paper on Adaptation and the EU Territorial Agenda are still widely lacking.

Faro
FARO-EU (Foresight Analysis of Rural areas Of Europe) is a EU FP6 Specific Targeted Research Project, with a two year duration (Jan 2007-Dec 2009).
The main questions to be answered in the project are:
- What are major trends and driving forces affecting rural regions?
- At which scales do they operate?
- Which of these processes are amenable to change through RD policies and where? i.e. where EU support for rural development will create the most value added at EU level?
- How rural policies might be adapted in the future to take account of these processes?

Carpathian project
The CARPATHIAN PROJECT was a project co-financed by the EU-Community Initiative Programme for
transnational cooperation: INTERREG CADSES in the Programming Period 2000-2006. The objective of the Carpathian Project was to enhance the sustainable development of the Carpathian region based on its rich natural and cultural heritage.
