“In keeping with the #neoliberal approach that has dominated #economic #policymaking for the past half-century, #governments have generally been expected to intervene only after #markets fail. But when it comes to #AI, a wait-and-see approach could prove catastrophic.”

“In effect, it reflects an approach to #policymaking that sees the meeting of basic needs, like good wages and affordable housing, as secondary to—or, at any rate, downstream from—the well-being of large firms and institutional investors.” #MarkCarney #Canada #CanadaSky #cdnpoli

🤔 Wondering what #SciPol activities we have during the #EGU26 week?

This #GeoLog highlights #sessions that focus on science for policy, showcasing how researchers can start engaging in #policymaking, connect with decision-makers, and create #policy impact.

Quoting his behavioural science colleagues: “People under pressure tend to revert to behaviours they are familiar with, rather than being open to experimentation or innovation.” – @[email protected] from EU #Policy Lab at #PolyFutures on behavioural resistance in #policymaking

On the acceleration of #policy timelines: “Compared to previous legislative terms, the time elapsed from draft to adoption has almost halved.” @[email protected] in a panel discussion on time in #policymaking at #PolyFutures with @[email protected]

How does time feel in your #policymaking work? Under time pressure, what do you end up sacrificing first? ‘Long-term thinking’, ‘Consultation and participation’, ‘Evidence and analysis’ or ‘Nothing, we adapt’ — questions for the audience in a panel discussion on ‘Can policy keep up with time?’

We’re starting! PolyFutures kicks off. 3 days on #foresight, behavioural insights, futures thinking and #policymaking in Brussels. Some familiar faces and many new people to meet and have an exchange with. Today and tomorrow, focus on trusting, sensing, experiencing, and daring.

En route to Brussels, for ‘PolyFutures’ to discuss “reimagining #policymaking for Europe”. As usual, I’m having a 7-hour train journey via Cologne. I’m very much looking forward to all the exchanges in the coming 3 days. I am hoping for some optimism! knowledge4policy.ec.europa.eu/major-event/...

On #policymaking in the age of AI: “we need to stop specifying processes that sound reasonable but have not been tested in the real world, do not have built-in mechanisms for revision and adaptation, and will not survive the transformation that’s already underway —@pahlkadot.bsky.social

Poll about participation of the public in policymaking in the European Union:

Do you think that the public (which means you and other people) has a well enough representation when it comes to policymaking at EU institutions like the European Commission, or the European Parliament?

PS Feel free to express your opinions in the comments.

Suing the European Commission because of an agreement giving the European Parliament, a body directly elected by EU citizens, more powers and equal treatment in legislative process is against democratic values.

The European Parliament, in fact, should have more powers and stronger position in lawmaking. This would increase the trust within the EU as the public prefers elected representatives to have more say. Moreover, more transparent lawmaking process and increased role of the EP regarding international agreements is another positive development.

Healthy democracy requires balance of powers and prerogatives as well as taking steps to strengthen public trust in EU institutions. https://www.politico.eu/article/eu-countries-threaten-take-commission-court-giving-parliament-extra-powers/

Wish we had an overview like this for every country! How sustainable are our universities and research organizations?

Which initiatives are there (e.g. on replacing plastics in the lab)? And which are ignored?

Where could small investments save bigger money (and could come up for bigger investments)?

Lets Rethink Housing: Surely we can do something now? Without new laws?
Say we’ve agreed on a better housing system.

The laws are coming.
The machinery is spinning up.

But while we’re waiting…
surely we can start doing something?

Watch our #Video about the RIFS-Conference “Tough Conversations in Tough Times”. It took place in December 2025 in Berlin. The conference brought together over 300 experts from #academia, #science, civil society, #policymaking and practice. Participants explored the growing opposition to #sustainability policies and possible responses to the changing landscape of public debate.

“ #Warsh might surprise us all by showing unexpected integrity, but don’t count on it. He may be better than the alternatives, but that’s a very low bar, which mainly tells us how sorry a state #economicpolicymaking — actually, #policymaking of any kind — has reached in the age of #Trump.”
