As International Relations and Communications Manager, I work mainly on VA’s European projects and international collaborations such as ORION Open Science, Allthings.Bio and Hub Sweden of the Falling Walls Engage network. I also work on EU policy issues through the national reference group for the WIDERA-programme within the EU framework programme for research and innovation, Horizon Europe
As a Swedish expert organisation for open science, citizen science, science communication and public engagement, VA has an important role to play in promoting and enhancing collaboration and dialogue between different stakeholders such as; academia, policy, civil society and business at national, European and international levels.
Science, research and innovation have no borders. Through collaboration, inclusion and knowledge exchange at different levels, we seek to achieve sustainable societal development.
