The Science of Decisions DESCRIPTION:Date: 22 september\nTime: 16:00-20:30 CET\nVenue: Permanent Representation of Estonia to the EU\, Rue Guimard 11-13\, Brussels \nWhat shapes decisions? And why is evidence alone often not enough?\nJoin us in celebrating the 14th anniversary of the Estonian Research Council’s Brussels Office with an evening that brings together the worlds of science\, policy\, and innovation. \nWHO DECIDES? The Science of Decisions is an interactive experience where\, together with researchers\, policymakers\, and innovators\, we’ll tackle some of the biggest questions on Europe’s agenda: \n\nCan evidence drive better policy?\nWhy do people make irrational decisions?\nHow do we build trust in an age of misinformation and AI?\nWhat does effective science advice look like in today’s World?\n\nVote\, challenge your assumptions\, and discover why people don’t always make the best decisions. Expect surprising insights\, lively debate\, and a seminar that puts you\, not just the speakers\, at the heart of the conversation. \nWhether you work in EU institutions\, research\, government\, industry\, or the wider policy community\, this is an opportunity to experience the science behind decision-making! \nJoin us for an evening where your decisions become part of the experiment!\nProgramme\n \n15:30 | Doors Open\nRegistration opens. Join us for coffee and informal networking before the seminar begins. \n16:00–16:15 | Welcoming Words \n16:15–17:05 | The Science Behind Decisions – Live Experiments with Experts\nBecome part of the experiment. Through live audience polling\, behavioural science demonstrations\, and expert insights\, discover how cognitive biases\, trust\, narratives\, and AI influence the decisions we make. \n17:05–18:00 | Decision-Making at the Highest Level\nHow does scientific evidence inform decisions when the stakes are high and uncertainty is unavoidable? Drawing on decades of experience in leadership\, diplomacy\, and security\, the discussion will explore how research\, expert advice\, and judgement come together in shaping public policy and national security decisions. \n18:00–18:15 | Closing Remarks & Thank-yous\nKey takeaways from the discussions and experiments\, reflecting on what it takes to bridge science and policymaking in an increasingly complex world. \n18:15–20:30 | Networking Reception\nContinue the conversation over drinks and refreshments with colleagues from the European institutions\, research organisations\, academia\, industry\, and the wider Brussels science and innovation community. \n\nRegistration\nRegistration is open until 15 September. \n\n \n \n \n "*" indicates required fields \n \n Full name*E-mail*\n \n Organisation*Position*Country*Any dietary restrictionsAny questions or remarksProcessing personal data at the Estonian Research Council*\n \n I agree\n Processing personal data at the Estonian Research Council \nCAPTCHA\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nEntry upon for registered participants with ID card/passport only. \nFor further information please email carmen.kivistik@etag.ee (Head of Office\, Estonian Research Council in Brussels) \n  \n  \n  URL:https://etag.ee/en/event/whodecides/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
