Original Kurzfassung:
The European Commission set up informal working groups composed of individuals from both, the science and diplomacy communities, to develop potential elements of a future European framework for science diplomacy. The main aim of the working groups is to bring together the relevant stakeholders in an innovative format, to develop jointly recommendations in a co-creation process.Following an open call for expressions of interest, to which almost 600 experts applied, the Commission has established 5 Science Diplomacy Working Groups
? each one co-chaired by a scientist and a diplomat ? which developed until the end of June 2024 concrete recommendations for a potential future European Framework for Science Diplomacy. The Working Groups tackled the above-mentioned four work strands as well as a cross-cutting one on definition, principles, and EU added value of European science diplomacy.
A Drafting Team is currently working on the final report of the EU Science Diplomacy Working Groups which is due to be published by the end of January 2025 and will inform the next steps to be taken at EU level.
