Event details
This ‘how to’ session on engaging with EU policymakers will start with a short introduction to the EU policymaking framework and institutions. The aim is to give participants a greater understanding of the target audience, such as European Parliament, European Commission, etc. We will then dig into how EU institutions interact with science and how the policymaking process works at EU level. This will help participants to better select their stakeholders and the type of interaction required. The second half of the session will be reserved for open discussion and questions from the audience.
