ALLEA

What We Do

Our activities aim to improve the conditions for research, to provide the best science advice available for citizens and policymakers, and to strengthen the role of science in society. In doing so, we channel the expertise of European academies for the benefit of the research community, decision-makers and the public. ALLEA produces science-based advice in response to societally relevant topics and encourages scientific reasoning and values through public engagement.
