for STI Policymaker and Administrators
10 - 12 November 2001
CIPRE (Centre for Innovation Policy Research and Education for Central and Eastern Europe) held its first Mentor Seminar for STI Policymakers and
Administrators on 7-11 November 2001 in Hotel Gellért, Budapest, Hungary.
In June 2000, with the support of the NATO Program on Science and Technology Policy and Organization, CIPRE held a planning workshop in Budapest
to assess the interest of CEE nations in a range of topics under the general heading of science, technology, and innovation policy and to set priorities
for its future activities. This workshop was attended by about 30 people, including members of CIPRE's International Advisory Board as well as
invited participants representing government agencies, universities, and academies of science in the CEE nations. Participants agreed that CIPRE should
give highest priority to cultivating policy leadership through educational programs for early and mid-career professionals, including short
courses, summer workshops, and policy fellowships. (More)
