JRC Evidence for Policy Summer School

JRC Evidence for Policy Summer School: a professional training which offers policymakers and scientist the opportunity to develop skills for creating robust policy solutions.

 

This year, the event is taking place in Slovakia on 6-8 September 2017, where we will count with policymakers and scientists from Central and Eastern Europe and selected EU neighbouring countries.

 

The programme is co-designed with the Commission's Knowledge Centre on Migration and Demography, and will be of particular interests to scientists and policymakers working in this thematic and regional context.

 

Using the lens of migration and demographic change as a common domain of policy interest, participants will learn about the tools and approaches to better inform the policy making process. They will also identify and address universal issues in data and evidence gathering and communication between researchers, policy makers and the general public. 

 

The priority for participation will be given to applicants from Central and Eastern Europe, including full funding for selected non-EU nationals.

 

The call for applications is now open, with all the background information available HERE.

EU4FACTS: Evidence for policy in a post-fact world

The interaction between science and policy has never been straightforward. But this relationship has been further complicated by the current post-fact debate.

 

Policy making needs to find the balance between facts and values. Linear thinking cannot be applied to the relationship between science, society and policy anymore. Scientists, politicians and citizens need new models and processes to connect, to develop new thinking and to communicate new narratives.

 

The conference aims to produce a set of clear recommendations for successful evidence-informed policy making institutions, processes and individuals. It will offer a frank encounter between leading experts from the fields of science, policy and media.
