Outreach
Many of MERGE's researchers are involved in different types of stakeholder activities. Find more information about policy briefs, stakeholder reference group and other activities here.
The activities can be anything from steering committees and networks, to participation in workshops, hearings, debates and conferences or seen in media. These are some examples of outreach activities that MERGE researchers have organized and worked with.
In March 2012 MERGE organized a stakeholder dialogue workshop in Jönköping, together with the strategic research environment BECC (also coordinated at Lund University). The purpose of the workshop was to present the research within the research environments but also to improve the dialogue and map expectations and preferred ways of communication with relevant stakeholders.
