Dear EUFRAS Members,

we cordially invite you to the 2025 international annual conference of rural advisors in Brussels. The exchange on the current and future role of rural advisory services in relation to agricultural policy objectives is the focus this time. The conference topic is ‘Strengthening the role of advisors and educators in the CAP - now and in future’. The Free State of Bavaria is organizing the 2025 conference, supported by many valuable contributions from IALB, EUFRAS and SEASN representatives, various country representations and the Boerenbond Flanders. On 25 June 2025, the plenary event with keynote speakers, presentation of the position paper of the advisory networks, poster session and the agricultural policy evening will take place at the Representation of the Free State of Bavaria to the EU in Brussels. On 26 June 2025, best-practice examples of professional support through advice, training and innovation projects will be discussed in workshops, and approaches to further developing the role of advice in various policy and thematic areas will be developed. On the afternoon of 26 June, visits to EU institutions will take place.
