"Even if some policy decisions are not publicly scrutinised the evidence should still be transparent as:
1. It is good practice
2. You never know when an individual may become interested in a policy because something has happened in their life"
Camilla Arvidsson, at #ESOF2024
ALT Five speakers at the EuroScience Open Forum Conference in Katowice, Poland on 14 June 2024. These five individuals spoke at a panel session titled 'Science for Policy: In the service of society. The five speakers are Camilla Arvidsson from Sense about Science, Janusz BujNicki from IIMCB, Agnieska Gadzina-Kolodziejska from the JRC, Eduardo Oliver from Ciencia en el Parlamento, and Leonor Sierra from Ciencia en el Parlamento.
"Science cannot take a political decision, but instead inform a political decision"
Agnieszka Gadzina-Kolodziejska at #ESOF2024 raised an insightful point about the role of science in policy in this morning's session.
#ESOF2024 is exploring how to connect science, the government, and society for a better future.
We are excited to contribute to this conversation in our panel sessions on Friday, 14 June: 'Science for policy: in the service of society' & 'Is risk communication prepared for AI?'
