The @MSCActions Postdoctoral Fellowship call 2022 offers researchers the option of being placed up to 6-month at a non-academic organisation. Have you considered spending that time at a public administration? Deadline for applications: 14th September 2022. ec.europa.eu/info/funding-t…
We had researchers of all scientific disciplines meeting with representatives from national public administrations, international organisations and NGOs. But you may also consult this #MSCA matchmaking platform by @MSCANetwork@EEN_EU@madrimasd for hosts. msca.b2match.io/home
You may also download this pdf presentation with supporting information of the #MSCA application process and this placement option, as well as about existing fellowships schemes for researchers to work in public administration. #Science4Policyknowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/sites/default/…

.@strandroger remarks 3 key discussions:
1⃣ Science Doesn’t Speak Truth to Power. As US President Eisenhower warned, science advice has a risk of making public policy captive of a scientific-technological elite.
Transparency, reflexivity, and contextuality may prevent this risk.
2⃣ Control is a False Ideal. Any evaluation framework may be useful, but not to fulfill a Cartesian dream of commanding and controlling policymaking and systems. Relying on pluralism and network approaches to governance may be more relevant for #Science4Policy ecosystems.
