Agri&Tour

The #AGRI&TOUR project aims to strengthen agritourism by advancing applied research and developing targeted education and training for youth and other agritourism stakeholders. The project will contribute to evidence-based agritourism practice and promote pathways that support rural development and youth engagement.

The project’s objectives are to:

• Develop and validate agritourism micro-credentials that support skills acquisition for learners and professionals.
• Design and deliver a specialised agritourism summer course, providing structured experiential learning for youth and stakeholders.
• Generate robust agritourism insights through research on market needs, opportunities, and good practice.
• Facilitate knowledge exchange and collaboration among project partners, educators, practitioners, and rural communities.
• Promote agritourism as a viable rural development pathway that enhances opportunities for youth and rural stakeholders.

The #AGRI&TOUR project will deliver the following results and outcomes:

• Evidence-based insights into agritourism, including market research and applied research outputs that inform education, practice, and policy.
• Development of agritourism micro-credentials, providing structured, flexible learning opportunities that support skills development for youth and professionals.
• Design and delivery of a dedicated agritourism summer course, offering intensive, practice-oriented learning for students and other agritourism stakeholders.
• Research and knowledge outputs, including papers, articles, and accessible content that disseminate project findings to academic and practitioner audiences.
• Stakeholder engagement and exchange, through round tables, talks, and a professional congress, supported by synthesis and summary outputs.
• Project communications and outreach, including a project website, social media presence, and branded materials to support visibility and uptake.
• Capacity-building outcomes, strengthening agritourism knowledge, teaching capability, and innovation across partner organisations and rural communities.
