SAPEA Workshop

23. 04. 2026

On 29 May, a SAPEA workshop titled Diversity in science advice for strengthened trust, public confidence and legitimacy will take place in Warsaw.

The SAPEA workshop is organised jointly by YASAS and ALLEA as part of a broader series of events designed to share knowledge and good practices among Europe’s academies.

Processes and practices of science advice, as well as the individuals engaged in them, are under increasing political, financial, and societal pressure. These pressures, which reflect wider challenges affecting science more broadly, influence how science advice is produced, which experts are involved, and the conditions under which they participate. 

This workshop intends to provide a space for academics and actors engaging at the science-policy interface or interested to learn more, including early-career researchers and displaced scientists, to exchange experiences, surface practical solutions and identify concrete actions that strengthen inclusive, resilient science advice practices.
 
Venue: Staszic Palace, Maria Skłodowska-Curie Hall, Warsaw, Poland
Date: 29 May, 2026, 9:00 - 12:00
