Energy-SHIFTS scoping workshop – ‘Evidence in the energy policy process’, Brussels (Belgium); 18 June 2019

In the Spring and Summer of 2019, Energy-SHIFTS undertook four scoping workshops based around the multi-stakeholder exploration of four ‘SSH Priority Themes’. Each workshop involved 20-30 participants, plus 2 Early-Stage Researchers, and resulted in tangible recommendations for the organisation of, and maximising the impact of, the rest of Energy-SHIFTS’ project activities.<br><br>The core purpose of these workshops was to open up discussion around some of the big energy-SSH issues being funded by the European Commission. We were therefore intentionally exploratory and open-minded in how these workshops were practically organised, in addition to also ensuring that a variety of voices were present.<br><br>Some of the key plenary and breakout sessions were audio recorded and subsequently transcribed, and then analysed by our partners as data.<br>
