The second takes place on 21 April, also in Cheltenham, and is entitled ‘Understanding European rural policy and programmes: the future of rural development under the CAP’. This short course will to provide a general introduction to the Rural Development policies of the EU and how they have been developed in the UK, in comparison to other EU countries. It will also provide an overview of the longer term significance of this element of EU policy and funding, and what is likely to happen to it, in future, after 2013.
