SCIENCE ADVICE FOR POLICY
BY EUROPEAN ACADEMIES

Janusz Bujnicki on developing science advice in Poland

From Brussels to Warsaw, Professor Janusz Bujnicki is helping to shape the future of scientific advice.

In this episode, he compares his experiences advising the European Commission with current efforts to develop more high-level science advice mechanisms in his home country of Poland. With Toby Wardman of SAPEA, he discusses the value of transparency versus discretion, the distinction between policy-for-science and science-for-policy, and how to make mistakes gracefully as part of the learning process.
