Agenda ONekin!

Since 2023, the European Council of Young Farmers (CEJA) has held its own capacity-building programme for young farmers across Europe, with the aim of training the next generation of agricultural leaders in the skills of today and tomorrow.The EU Young Farmers Leadership Programme is an annual three-day capacity-building initiative for leaders of young farmers’ organisations, empowering those organisations through the empowerment of individuals, showcasing the work of CEJA to national leaders and, ultimately, facilitating the visibility of their organisations. This leadership programme will last for three days and will be held in Brussels, at the EU CAP Network premises. It will include approximately 50 participants sent from CEJA’s Member Organisations and additional guest organisations (i.e., young farmers’ organisations established in EU candidate countries, non-members with whom CEJA has contact), the selection of whom will be based on diversity rules, including geographical balance and gender balance. The theme of this third edition in 2025 will be ‘Future-proof strategies for generational renewal’.
