EGU26: Policymaker registration waiver request
To promote knowledge exchange and a culture of evidence-informed policymaking, EGU26 will offer free registration (either on-site or virtual) to European policymakers. We hope that this free registration will enable policymakers to attend scientific sessions that are relevant to the legislation that they are working on and meet researchers who may be able to answer any additional scientific questions that will support their decision-making. Furthermore, we hope that this free registration will allow policymakers to be integrated into sessions throughout EGU26, allowing them to connect with the research community, share their policy work, and support future opportunities for science-policy interactions and engagement.
While we acknowledge that some geoscience researchers play an active role in EU policymaking, this waiver aims to encourage greater participation and interaction with those who work outside of the geoscience community. This registration waiver is therefore only available for those who do not conduct geoscience-related research and whose primary function is to establish, implement, or improve European legislation. If you are unsure if you meet the criteria for a free registration, please get in touch with zsanett.papp@egu.eu.
