BCSP Director participated in the panel ““New ways of creating policy – Bridging the gap between researchers and policy makers”. The panel was focused on theoretical and practical contributions in building connections between evidence based research and policy for more effective policy decisions. Participants shared their experiences about the effectiveness of link between researchers and policy makers in the WB and Europe.
Also, in the “open space training” part of the conference Stojanovic Gajic was the moderator of one of the sessions, during which brainstorming and exchange of ideas unfolded about the possibilities of constructive solution of the conflict between Serbs and Albanians over the situation in Kosovo.
