Cop-Evidence4Policy_1422x817px_plan on policy impact (2)

The Commission is trying to promote excellence in policymaking through anticipating, developing, implementing, and evaluating policies in an evidence-informed, transparent, and collaborative way with stakeholders, citizens and experts. Key to achieving this goal is developing the capacity and skills of both policymakers and researchers.

The JRC is leading the development of two “competence frameworks” capturing the collective set of transversal skills, attitudes and knowledge for both policymakers and scientists at the science-policy interface. 

Looking for feedback on these beta versions

What competences does it take to work with evidence and tackle wicked policy problems? Help us find out by sharing your insights 

The two draft frameworks are now open to your feedback and comments. Deadline: 8th September 2021.  If you would like to know more about the project or get involved, please get in touch with us by sending an email to florian.schwendinger@ec.europa.eu or lene.topp@ec.europa.eu.
