Conferences

Three thematic conferences form the backbone of EPIGOV and are held over the duration of the project. The conferences bring together all project partners as well as external academics, policy-makers and other stakeholders. Discussions focus on the research papers presented at the conferences and on future research needs and initiatives. Each conference addresses two main themes:

• Stockholm conference (12-13 June 2008): EPI at global level; EPI and multi-level governance;
• Milan conference (22-23 November 2007): EPI at local/regional levels; EPI at national level;
• Brussels conference (15-16 February 2007): EPI at EU level; EPI and modes of governance.

A Final Policy Conference presenting the overall EPIGOV results to interested parties (academic community, policy-makers and other stakeholders) was held in Brussels (23 January 2009).

Note: this information will be updated regularly in the course of the project.
