This Big Data for Migration Alliance (BD4M) event is a space to reflect on how data innovation can concretely help to improve evidence on migration for policymaking.
It brings together experts in governments, international organisations, the private sector, and civil society.
Due to current COVID-19-regulations, in-person participation will mostly be limited to speakers and co-organisers.
Improving transport efficiency and reducing its negative impacts is a major political objective of the European Union.
Connected and Automated Vehicles (CAVs) promise to play an important role towards this goal. CAVs are indeed expected to be safer and more energy efficient than existing conventional vehicles and to increase the road network capacity. However, the effect of introducing new technologies and solutions in the transport system depends from a multiplicity of factors due to its intrinsic complexity.
The 15th Strategic Energy Technology Plan (SET Plan) conference will take place in Bled, Slovenia on 25-26 November 2021.
The conference will be co-organised by the Slovenian Presidency of the Council of the European Union and the European Commission.
This year’s hybrid conference will bring together high level speakers, policy makers, industry, researchers, academia and general public on important energy related topics in the new post-COVID policy realities.
In this course, participants receive a general introduction to:
Employment remains the best route out of poverty but the phenomenon of in-work poverty has become all too real in the recent decades.
Since the European Union added a new indicator of “in-work poverty risk” to the European list of social indicators in 2003, the share of employed persons aged over 18 at risk of poverty increased from 8.2% in 2005 to 9% just before the Covid-19 pandemic in 2019 after reaching a peak of 9.8% in the aftermath of the Global Financial Crisis.
The event is part of a webinar series on fairness and related issues organised by the Fairness Community of Practice.
The course will be held at the INSTN site in Marcoule and addresses the general dismantling process as well as the main regulatory, organizational and technical aspects that govern it. Different methodologies are presented in response to the specific challenges of nuclear decommissioning.

CONCORDi 2021, the biennial European conference on corporate R&D and innovation takes place next 22 - 25 November.
The Conference aims to identify the research, business and policy challenges in this area for the decade to come, and to provide guidance to the EU industrial research and innovation policy agenda.
Models are extensively used to analyse the environmental, economic, and social impacts of policies.
The European Commission makes use of models throughout the policy cycle.
Our online conference brings together researchers and policymakers to identify common challenges and solutions when using models to support policymaking.
Recent years have seen high levels of polarisation, rapid spread of misinformation, a decrease in willingness to compromise, and a historic low in satisfaction with or even outright attacks on democracy.
Politics itself is increasingly turning on a new axis. On top of traditional economic conflicts, cultural values and identity issues have become just as or even more important for policymaking and politics today.
