Inclusive Research Assessment in the European Research Area: From Evidence to Policy Action

Part of the CoARA TIER Dissemination Tour

Have you ever wondered how can science and innovation strengthen global cooperation and help address shared challenges such as climate change, emerging technologies, resource security, and sustainable development?

If yes, join us for an insightful discussion in our upcoming webinar on the evolving landscape of Science, Technology and Innovation (STI) Diplomacy, and explore how researchers, policymakers, and international organizations can work together to shape responsible innovation and evidence-informed solutions.

The webinar "Advancing Science, Technology, and Innovation Diplomacy for Sustainability" organized in collaboration with MCAA Policy WG and UNESCO Venice, will bring together experts from UNESCO and UNESCO-TWAS to discuss:
🔹 The role of STI Diplomacy in global challenges
🔹 International scientific cooperation and science-for-policy approaches
🔹 Responsible governance of transformative technologies, including AI and Quantum Technologies
🔹 Inclusive and gender-responsive innovation ecosystems
🔹 Opportunities for researchers to engage in global policy discussions

So, whether you are a researcher, policymaker, or science communication enthusiast, this webinar offers an opportunity to connect with leading voices shaping the future of science diplomacy.

The webinar will provide the wider research community with an interdisciplinary perspective on the connections between cultural diplomacy and science diplomacy. It is particularly relevant for internationally mobile researchers, offering insights into how cultural engagement can serve as a bridge for mutual understanding, trust-building, and collaboration across different political, social, and cultural contexts.

During the one-day hybrid event, we will be introduced to the narrative CV, its impact on research culture and years of experience using it on a national scale in two keynote presentations. Following these introductory talks, a high-level panel discussion will explore, how the use of the narrative CV might fit the Slovenian context as a valuable tool. In addition, the Peer Exchange Platform for Narrative-style CVs (PEP-CV) will be presented as a digital platform supporting the pratical use of narrative CVs as an impactful assessment tool.
