https://enrd.ec.europa.eu/greening-rural-economy_en‘Greening the Rural Economy’ is one of the broad themes of the European Network for Rural Development (ENRD) in the 2014-2020 programming period. This theme directly links to the following two EU Rural Development policy priorities: Priority 4: Restoring, preserving and enhancing ecosystems related to agriculture and forestry.Priority 5: Promoting resource efficiency and supporting the shift towards a low carbon and climate resilient economy in agriculture, food and forestry sectors.So far, work under the theme of ‘Greening the Rural Economy’ 2014-2020 has focused on the following sub-themes:1. Transition to the Green Economy2. Resource Efficiency 3. Water and Soil Management

The Livestock environmental Assessment and Performance (LeAP) Partnership members called for sound recommendations on nutrient accounting and impact assessment for inclusion into the LEAP guidelines. To get to a global consensus in the field, this TAG will build a common ground by facilitating technical dialogue between the relevant scientific communities, practitioners, and LEAP stakeholders.More information about LEAP: http://www.fao.org/ag/againfo/home/en/news_archive/2016_LEAP_call_technical_cooperation.htmlMore information about the TAG on Nutrient Cycles Accounting and Impact Assessment:http://www.fao.org/3/a-be805e.pdf

www.whattodowithpoo.comWhat is the Challenge?Sanitation Programs face different challenges to optimize the sanitation value chain aiming for minimizing costs and maximizing value creation from human waste. Key challenges are mainly in the marketing, distribution and selling of end-‘products’ from the processing units (compost & urine).In this challenge people were challenged to participate in addressing this challenge of the Sanitation Program by going beyond the marketing, distribution and sales of compost and ‘urine’ for agricultural purposes and generate ideas and business concepts for innovative products and services using human waste:What is your business concept for a product or service using human waste?The winning team got- Business Development support to improve the business concept anda plan for starting up a business;- An opportunity to proof the concept in Kenya;- The announcement of the concept at the International Water Association (IWA) Development conference 2013 in Nairobi, Kenya;• An investment pitch.
