These grants aim to promote this dialogue and carry out specific activities of particular interest to the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food and Environment (MAPAMA) related to the role of rural women in rural economic development. Specifically, those related to the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD), the LEADER approach, Shared Ownership of Farms, and the incorporation of women into agricultural activity.
