InsSciDE Case Studies: Published Papers

Over the course of four years, the InsSciDE project develops a library of case studies on its five targeted thematic areas (Heritage, Health, Security, Environment and Space) as well as on its transversal research strand ’Science Diplomats’. The case studies draw on extensive field and desk research and on interviews and archives, and are carried out in direct contact with practitioners.

Through multidisciplinary and integrative research, the case studies cast new light on Europe’s science diplomacy experience, and feed into the development of a new theory-based strategic framework for a shared European Science Diplomacy, and inform guidance documents and best practice reviews for policy- and decision-makers.

Once published, the case study papers can be found here. See Case Study Pitches to learn about the cases still being developed.

Look for ’OA’ next to the titles for Open Access articles.
