The Universitat Jaume I has launched the sixth edition of its Summer University in Benicàssim with the course “Science and Public Policy.” The event opened with remarks by UJI Rector and CRUE President Eva Alcón, alongside top representatives from the national and regional university systems and the Benicàssim city council. The programme, which runs until June 6, focuses on how to bring science closer to society. Alcón emphasized the importance of integrating university research into political decision-making and highlighted the need to enhance knowledge transfer, attract and retain research talent, and ensure sustainable public investment in science.

The opening keynote was delivered by Josep Lobera, director of Spain’s new National Office for Scientific Advice (ONAC), who discussed the role of scientific advisors in policymaking and the need to build trust in this process. The program continued with a roundtable featuring experts and scientific advisors reflecting on their experiences connecting science and decision-making, and called for long-term support for ONAC. The day concluded with a second roundtable on citizen science and its role in public policy, featuring perspectives from researchers and university leaders across Spain. The event will continue with a keynote by former Universities Minister Joan Subirats and a final session led by Spain’s OECD ambassador, Ximo Puig.
