Final Conference

ISEED’s Final Conference

Fostering Participation in Science and Democracy

Background

From June 11th to June 12th, 2024, the Norwegian University of Science and Technology hosted the ISEED Final Conference, in Brussels, Belgium. Entitled “Fostering Participation in Science and Democracy”, this meeting was a culmination of our groundbreaking research and innovative findings.

The meeting spotlighted the project’s outputs and opened the floor for discussion, including proposals and recommendations that have evolved from our diverse research efforts. This event was a fantastic opportunity to review our accomplishments, consider their practical applications, and share insights with a wider audience beyond our project’s consortium.
