Event details

It is with great pleasure and enthusiasm that we invite you to the follow‑up of the Utrecht, Heidelberg, and London meetings. Because multistakeholder exchange is essential for shaping the position of funders, we are organising two connected days in Amsterdam.

On 28 May, we will host an open multistakeholder event: the Green Science Festival (programme: click here). On 29 May, we will continue with a dedicated session for the Heidelberg/London participants

For this second day we will be using the insights gathered on the 28th as input for our discussions. We will take a deep dive into our shared experiences: successful practices, leverages, as well as the hurdles, points of resistance, and how to address them.

Together, we will work towards concrete next steps and reflect on the potential role of this group moving forward. We look forward to welcoming you in Amsterdam on 28 and 29 May!
