1 Science in Society Steve Parker - DG Research Directorate L – Science, Economy and Society European Commission

2 Science in Society Background lPolicy context èLisbon and Göteborg Strategies (knowledge-based society, sustainable development) : political priorities of the European Union. èThe success of these strategies require the involvement and active participation of citizens in the creation, sharing and dissemination of knowledge. è(Increasing?) distance and distrust from society regarding science and research.

3 Science in Society Work Programmes 2007 - 2010 lWork Programmes 2007 - 2010: èFollow the action lines of the Science in Society Specific Programme adopted in 2006 èSet out the actions to be undertaken during the year lProgression in total budget: è2007: € 29.9 million (21.8 for the calls for proposals) è2008 : € 41 million (29.9 for the calls) è2009: € 34.5 million (31.8 for the calls) è2010: € 51.5 million (46.6 for the calls)

4 New approach from 2009 2009 Work Programme presented a significant change in our approach. Prioritising more focused and structured actions with greater European added-value and impact. A more effective critical mass of projects involving a wide range of key actors This approach is developed further in 2010 and beyond

5 Work Programme 2010 Greater research component Pursuing broader public engagement in science and research – Mobilisation and Mutual Learning actions More focused work on ethics Engaging with and modernising universities Science Education: in-service teacher training Reinforcing links between science education and careers Gender and Research Science and the Arts
