Commissioner hearing tomorrow – Ecsite got science and society question lined up

Commissioner-Designates of the Juncker Commission team are being auditioned by the European Parliament as of today. These public hearings are preceding a plenary vote on 22 October – this is the time for MEPs to raise issues. Carlos Moedas, Portuguese Commissioner-Designate for the Research, Science and Innovation portfolio will be interviewed tomorrow. Polish MEP Michał Boni agreed to ask Moedas about his roadmap on ‘Science with and for society’ – a part of the Horizon 2020 framework dear to Ecsite and the science engagement sector at large. Special thanks to Robert Firmhofer from Copernicus (Warsaw, Poland) who was instrumental in putting this question on the agenda. Watch the hearing live (starting at 9am Brussels time, our question should be asked after 10am) and stay tuned – we will be reporting on it.
