QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE TOOLS FOR SOCIAL ANALYSIS IN NATURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT
2025-07-16 15:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Rome)
JULY 16 | 3:00 PM
Registration: https://seminaricreaunitus.crea.gov.it/
The seminar aims to illustrate the main tools used to develop socioeconomic analyses in the field of natural resources management. The difference between quantitative and qualitative tools will be explained, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each technique and providing elements to evaluate the appropriateness of their use. Specifically, attention will be focused on two main data collection tools: structured and semi-structured questionnaires and in-depth interviews. Both questionnaires, used to collect qualitative information, and interviews, used to collect quantitative data, will be described. A focus will serve to clarify when it is more appropriate to adopt one or the other tool and the precautions to follow in their use. The methods to follow for the collection and processing of the data obtained will then be described.
The webinar is part of the training project “Towards Green Horizons”, organized within the framework of the excellence project D.I.Ve.r.So.
The Order of Agronomists and Foresters of Viterbo will grant 0.25 Professional Training Credits (CFP) for each seminar; the Territorial College of Graduate Agricultural Experts of the Province of Rome will grant 2 CFP per seminar; the National College of Agrotechnicians will also grant 2 CFP per seminar.
The training project counts toward the annual 40-hour training performance target outlined in the Directive of the Minister for Public Administration dated January 16, 2025. Credit recognition is subject to passing a final assessment test administered at the end of each event.

CARBON FARMING AND THE CERTIFICATION METHODOLOGY FOR THE AGRICULTURAL AND FORESTRY SECTOR: A FOCUS ON EU REGULATION July 21
2025-07-21 15:00 - 17:00
JULY 21 | 3:00 PM
Registration: https://seminaricreaunitus.crea.gov.it/
The European Green Deal aims to make Europe climate neutral by 2050 and, to make this objective legally binding, the Commission has issued the European Climate Law which also sets a further and more ambitious target of reducing net greenhouse gas emissions by at least 55% by 2030 compared to 1990 levels. Achieving this target would require amendments to a number of existing legislative proposals, including the Efforts Sharing Regulation (NO-ETS sector), the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry Regulation (LULUCF sector) and the Renewable Energy Directive. In the Land Use, Land Use Change and Forestry Regulation, more ambitious targets are proposed to expand the EU’s natural carbon sink, which is essential to offset emissions and achieve climate neutrality.
The webinar is part of the training project “Towards Green Horizons”, organized within the framework of the excellence project D.I.Ve.r.So.
The Order of Agronomists and Foresters of Viterbo will grant 0.25 Professional Training Credits (CFP) for each seminar; the Territorial College of Graduate Agricultural Experts of the Province of Rome will grant 2 CFP per seminar; the National College of Agrotechnicians will also grant 2 CFP per seminar.

EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL POLICIES FOR ENERGY TRANSITION IN THE AGRI-FOOD SECTOR
2025-09-11 15:00 - 17:00
CREA-UNITUS SEMINAR SERIES | EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL POLICIES FOR ENERGY TRANSITION IN THE AGRI-FOOD SECTOR
SEPTEMBER 11 | 3:00 PM
Registration: https://seminaricreaunitus.crea.gov.it/
The global events of recent years – from the pandemic to the instability of energy and raw material supplies – have highlighted the need to establish a more sustainable relationship with the environment, through a substantial paradigm shift in the way we consume and produce. This transformation, or rather transition, is aligned with the path outlined by the new PNIEC, and it fully involves the worlds of production, services, and households. Such a situation calls for a new approach, in which productivity and economic growth must be reconciled with the goals of environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and energy transition. RSE’s contribution will focus on assessing the role of the agri-food sector, across its various supply chains, in achieving decarbonization targets.
The webinar is part of the training project “Towards Green Horizons”, organized within the framework of the excellence project D.I.Ve.r.So.
The Order of Agronomists and Foresters of Viterbo will grant 0.25 Professional Training Credits (CFP) for each seminar; the Territorial College of Graduate Agricultural Experts of the Province of Rome will grant 2 CFP per seminar; the National College of Agrotechnicians will also grant 2 CFP per seminar.
