    The DAERA Innovation Strategy is an operational strategy of the DAERA Science Strategy Framework. It focuses on two aspects

    1. The establishment of an enabling environment within DAERA to support innovation and the implementation of innovation actions within the Department and
    2. The development of an enabling external environment to encourage and support the implementation of innovation actions across the sectors DAERA serves.

It also defines milestones to reach the goals including providing senior and dedicated resource for innovation, developing effective stakeholder engagement mechanisms, establishing Task Forces to explore innovation opportunities and proposals for exploitation, development of capacity and capability and addressing barriers to innovation.
