This event will explain how Public Engagement (PE) can best be shaped, implemented and embedded in Research & Innovation (R&I) policy and practice. Knowledge and recommendations from the Mutual Learning Exercise (MLE) on PE in R&I will be shared, as well as best PE practices from across Europe. Participants are invited to co-create the content and contribute with their own experiences and ideas.
The MLE on PE in R&I ended in 2024. A facsheet and 5 thematic reports can be consulted on the European Commission DG R&I website here.
This event is co-organised by the European Commission, Belspo (the Belgian Science Policy) and Scivil (the Flemish Knowledge Centre for Citizen Science).
Participation is free. Registration is required (here). Registration deadline for on-site participation is 17 March and for online participation 31 March.
All details about the event and the programme are available in the announcement on the Scivil website.
What are MLEs?
The MLEs are one of the services of the Horizon Europe Policy Support Facility (HE PSF) for which the European Commission Directorate-General R&I is the lead DG. Funding for HE PSF is foreseen via the Horizon Europe Work Programme.
HE PSF provides good practice, independent high-level expertise and guidance at the request of national administrations with R&I competences of Member States and Associated Countries to Horizon Europe on R&I policy reforms across the European Research Area.
The MLEs are focused on specific and operational R&I challenges of interest to several volunteering countries and aim to identify good practice, lessons learned and success factors. Examples of MLE topics are Research Careers, Citizen Science Initiatives and EU Missions implementation at national level. On the Policy Support Facility web page all past and ongoing exercises are documented with reports and presentations.
We offer news and event updates, covering all domains and topics of Horizon Europe, Digital Europe & EDF (and occasionally, for ongoing projects, Horizon 2020).

Only for stakeholders located in Flanders
The Horizon2020 twinning project ScreenME has as its objective to enhance excellence in screen media entrepreneurship at Tallinn University (TLU). To do so, ScreenME has established a network of universities across Europe that aim to improve research into and teaching of entrepreneurship for the screen media industry. ScreenME will develop a teaching course and will kick off research initiatives and projects on entrepreneurial activities in media organisations. The research group on ‘Studies in Media, Innovation and Technology (SMIT)’ of the Vrije Universiteit Brussel (VUB) is partner in the network and is involved in two cross-cutting activities of the project: support for early stage researchers and developing stakeholder involvement.
