Policy
The Policy Working Group is currently structured around two main Task Forces. These are:
- The Science Policy Task Force for ‘Research Careers and Research Assessment’, which supports researchers' careers and focuses on research assessment and European science policies.
- The Science Diplomacy Task Force for ‘Capacity Building and Training’, which focuses on science diplomacy and provides support to the capacity building activities.
Previous interests of the working group have included questions such as researchers' mental health, refugees in higher education, career development of MSCA fellows and climate change.
Members with an interest in science policy and a modicum of time to dedicate to our activities (~2 hrs/month) are always welcome to apply to join us.
