DG AGRI hosted the “CAP post 2013” conference on the public debate in Brussels on 19-20 July. PREPARE was represented in this event by its coordinator, Mr. Goran Šoster (PP presentation; speech summary). Also Michael Dower, Hannes Lorenzen and Urszula Budich Szukala from PREPARE network attended the important event.
The aim of the conference "CAP post-2013" was to bring together the varied elements of contributions presented during the debate period and to provide the opportunity for further discussion around the following broad themes: Why do we need a common agricultural policy? What do citizens expect from agriculture? Why reform the CAP? What tools do we need for the CAP of tomorrow?
The conference was also an important step in the Commission's preparations for a Communication to be issued later in the year that will prepare the ground for proposals for the CAP post-2013.
