Pairing schemes offer a valuable platform for policymakers and scientists to collaborate, fostering a deeper understanding of complex issues and driving evidence-based policymaking

Guided tours are a great interactive experience: Scientists can present their research and policymakers can ask questions.

Hearings and similar formats like expert talks in parliament are important formats for members of parliament to receive scientific evidence from scientists.

This format enables scientists to conduct face-to-face meetings with policymakers in one day or over several days – and vice versa.

Science shops are organisations that make knowledge available to civil society organisations that don’t have the means to pay or perform research themselves.

Policy sessions at academic conferences are a great way to gain policy perspectives on current research issues.

The Public Factory offers modular, user-friendly spaces for student and teaching communities, as well as local stakeholders (government departments, local authorities, businesses, associations).

A Hackathon combines the words “hacker” and “marathon.” It’s an innovation competition where participants come together to brainstorm ideas and create solutions in a short period of time.
