We only had three years for the #PRORES project, says @GabiLombardo2, and we need a PRO-RES 2 because there is a great deal still to be done.

"We are not going to solve the challenges that Europe faces without a massive injection of #science to help us understand these complex problems and come up with viable solutions", reminds @DavidMair4 (@EU_ScienceHub) during our Final @ProRes14 Conference.

"Politicians have gotten out of the habit of being able to think critically. We need evidence-based policy making but also intelligence-based policy making - we need trustworthy evidence but also politicians that think straight." @rogercasale, Executive Director at @NewEuropeans

☝️ Knowledge doesn’t just come from the scientific environment ➙ think tanks & other non-research organisations. ➙ “Policymakers should cite their sources. Then you know the pathway from evidence to policy. You need that to build a community of trust.” @GabiLombardo2 @epc_eu

In the non-academic sector, says @FabianZuleeg, there are incentives to behave unethically and far less transparency because much of the work is done in informal ways #PRORES

A view from @GabiLombardo2 that politicians are in office for such a short period that they don't think it matters if they tell lies because by the time the truth comes out they will have moved on. #PRORES

Question from #PRORES conference moderator Jacki Davis: how do we incentivize the policy makers? @rogercasale suggests that the incentive is to avoid the potentially catastrophic consequences of policy that is not based on evidence from ethical research.

A call from @DavidMair4 for more work to build on #PRORES progress, and in particular for funders to take note - structural incentives are needed within the research community.

And @FabianZuleeg extends this to thinktanks, consultancy etc - the influential but inconsistent and unregulated advisory sector #PRORES

Now @GabiLombardo2 who is part of the #PRORES project says scientists need to cite their sources - and moderator Jacki Davis says all knowledge producers need to do this.
