How does evidence-based policy-making work, and how can it be made impactful? What are the challenges and possible solutions when bridging science and policy mindsets? In the lecture, Vladimír Šucha explains what needs to be taken into account when creating policies and what the policy cycle looks like in practice. As an example, he presents initiatives launched by the EU to enhance migration data and evidence in response to the migration situation in 2015-2016.
This lecture was part of the 10th EMN Educational Seminar on Migration 2024 entitled “Demystifying Migration and Harnessing Its Power”. We recommend following the lecture together with its presentation which you can find together with all podcasts from the seminar at www.emnseminar.sk.
The seminar is organised by the International Organization for Migration Slovakia as the coordinator of the Slovak EMN National Contact Point. This activity is funded by the European Union and co-funded by the Ministry of Interior of the Slovak Republic.
