Policy Impact in China
I’m really delighted to share the news that on 3 January 2019, Ministry of Science and Technology in China has officially accepted a set of policy recommendations on increasing transparency and public accountability of Chinese science and have circulated these recommendations in their Neican. ‘Neican’ refers to valued policy submissions which are put forward to ministers and other high-level officials.
These recommendations are based on the ESRC project, Governing Scientific Accountability in China. So this amazing outcome is a collective effort and is a result of the contributions made by everyone involved in this project, especially all interviewees and participants of our workshop and conference.
Details of these policy recommendations can be found here: https://www.kent.ac.uk/gsa/whats-new/?view=258
