6. CAP monitoring & evaluation framework handbook and CMEF/PMEF guidance (agricultural policy indicator logic)
This framework provides indicator-logic-oriented guidance underpinning the EU’s Common Agricultural Policy, setting out clear intervention logics and indicator typologies (context, output, result, impact), and is relevant as an MEIA reference for structuring, selecting, and justifying indicators in agri-food and agricultural system interventions.
7. European Environment Agency / European Topic Centre report on food systems transition monitoring frameworks and indicators
This report provides a comparative review of existing indicator frameworks used to monitor food systems transitions, synthesising approaches, indicator types, and assessment criteria across initiatives, and is relevant as an MEIA reference for positioning and justifying indicator choices by drawing on an established “menu” of frameworks and selection rationales.
8. EJP SOIL Deliverable 6.5: Guidelines for accounting and mapping agricultural soil carbon, fertility and degradation changes
This deliverable provides practical guidance developed under the EJP SOIL monitoring and information harmonisation work, setting out methods, definitions, and change indicators for assessing agricultural soil carbon, fertility, and degradation, and is relevant as an MEIA reference for environment-focused monitoring system design, particularly as a concrete protocol example for defining and operationalising soil-related change indicators.
9. CORE Organic official document repository
This repository contains official call documents and reporting templates from CORE Organic ERA-Nets (I, II, Plus, and Cofund), including mid-term and other reporting formats that illustrate how monitoring and reporting requirements were structured in practice, and is relevant as an MEIA reference for understanding applied monitoring approaches, indicator expectations, and funder-aligned reporting structures in transnational agri-food research programmes.

15. BOOST4BIOEAST Deliverable D3.1 – Results from Multidimensional Competency and Biomass Mapping (2025)
This deliverable presents a multidimensional indicator framework designed to assess national bioeconomy readiness across four dimensions: workforce skills, technological readiness, business and innovation environments, and national biomass potential. Developed through literature review, partner consultation, and testing across four regional HUBs, the framework includes a structured set of competency and biomass potential indicators. It provides a practical methodology for assessing bioeconomy development gaps and opportunities, supporting national bioeconomy action planning and policy development. As such, it offers a relevant MEIA reference for the design of multidimensional indicator systems and readiness assessments in bioeconomy and sustainability-oriented initiatives.
