Support for information measures relating to the common agricultural policy (IMCAP)

The IMCAP-2025-INFOME program is designed to fund comprehensive information measures that elevate public awareness and understanding of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP) throughout the European Union. It targets a diverse audience, including the general public, young people, farmers, and other agricultural stakeholders, aiming to clarify the CAP's extensive benefits and strategic contributions.

This program supports information and communication activities designed to inform citizens about the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP). It focuses on illustrating how the CAP supports various critical areas within the EU's farming sector and rural regions. The funding primarily covers broad outreach initiatives and, if necessary, supporting studies related to CAP issues, while excluding certain routine or legally mandated activities.

The IMCAP-2025-INFOME program provides financial support in the form of grants. For the year 2025, a total budget of 4,000,000 € has been allocated to support these vital information measures concerning the Common Agricultural Policy. The document does not specify a maximum funding amount per project or the exact funding rate.

Applicants to the IMCAP-2025-INFOME program must adhere to specific conditions regarding admissibility, eligibility, and financial capacity. While single applicants are permitted, the nature of large-audience information measures often lends itself to collaborative efforts. Projects are also required to define clear impact indicators and demonstrate novelty if building on previous co-financed campaigns.

The application process for the IMCAP-2025-INFOME program involves submitting proposals through a dedicated system, adhering to specified formats and deadlines. The evaluation of applications is based on clearly defined award criteria, with various templates and guidance documents available to support applicants throughout the process.

The IMCAP-2025-INFOME program operates under a robust legal framework established by key European Union regulations. These foundational documents provide the authority and guidelines for the program's objectives, implementation, and financial management, ensuring consistency with broader EU policies.
