The 2nd International Netwrok for Government Science Advise Conference “Science and Policy Making: towards a new dialogue” will take place in Brussels, Belgium, on Thursday 29th and Friday 30th September 2016. Jointly organised by the European Commission and the International Network for Government Science Advice (INGSA), the conference will bring together users and providers of scientific advice on critical, global issues. Policy-makers, leading practitioners and scholars in the field of science advice to governments, as well as other stakeholders, will explore principles and practices in a variety of current and challenging policy contexts. It will also present the new Scientific Advice Mechanism of the European Commission to the international community. Through keynote lectures and plenary discussions and topical parallel sessions, the conference aims to take a major step towards responding to the challenge best articulated by the World Science Forum Declaration of 2015.

The conference seeks to:

  • Identify core principles and best practices, common to structures providing scientific advice for governments worldwide
  • Identify practical ways to improve the interaction of the demand and supply side of scientific advice
  • Describe, by means of practical examples, the impact of effective science advisory processes
