The Cork iNet Scoping Seminar was held in the city of Olbia in Sardinia (Italy) at Grand Hotel President (July 11, for the meeting) and in Bono (July 12, for the field trip).

As in previous Scoping Seminars, this one was useful to focus on first priority themes and knowledge gaps for this iNet identified by participants, who included forest owners, forest owners, cork industry, research and development, wine industry, national and regional governments and chamber of commerce.

Tunisia hosted the Aromatics & Medicinal Plants iNet Scoping Seminar on 27 and 28 June, with the participation of various stakeholders from Tunisia, Greece, Spain, Portugal and France. The seminar was launched by three presentations to introduce the actual situation of AMPs sector in Tunisia, Spain and Greece. These presentations were very inspiring to open the debate.

The INCREDIBLE Innovation Network (iNet) on Wild Nuts & Berries brought together stakeholders from Portugal, Spain and France to map value chains and mark priority themes for the sector.

Forest owners, collectors, entrepreneurs, researchers and public managers joined the workshop, which took place in Coruche (Ribatejo), Portugal, on 14 June, to validate common narratives for chestnuts and Mediterranean pine nuts, as well as the strawberry tree.

INCREDIBLE iNets gather good practices (both practical and science-based) related to production, collection, processing and trade channels of respective NWFPs. Joining an iNet is the best way to establish priorities for each sector related to all aspects of the value chain, focussing on the most urgent needs and challenges for the production, supply and sustainability of NWFPs.
