From research to policy brief - IEP@BU monthly brainstorming sessions

IEP@BU is conducting monthly hybrid meetings, in which IEP@BU Fellows are able to present projects they either want to publish or have already published as IEP@BU Policy Briefs.

The goal of these meetings is to foster engagement among IEP@BU Fellows, thereby leading to collective learning, increased policy-relevance and hopefully future collaborations within the IEP@BU community. As such, we strongly encourage in-person presence despite the hybrid format.
