This training is organised in the framework of the Innovation Agenda for the Western Balkans with the aim to build and establish better connections between scientific knowledge and policymaking.
The JRC is pleased to announce the 2 days online training course for Western Balkans scientists on evidence informed policy making, assessing science, understanding policymaking processes and gaining insight into the interaction between the different paradigms in which scientists, policymakers and politicians operate. It will help scientists to become reflexive practitioners, mastering the complex task of providing the appropriate knowledge and services with confidence, skill and respect for their scientific and institutional values.
Participating in this 2 days online training course you will learn to become more effective in informing policy through evidence and better capable to select and use effective methods and tools for informing policy. This course is essential for researchers who would like their research results to have greater policy impact, but may not have the know-how to communicate effectively with policy makers.
