Abstract

Establishing mechanisms for involving scientists in policymaking for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is a long-term requirement. The Zurich-Basel PhD program Science and Policy involves early-stage scientists in science-policy boundary work through internships and co-supervision at academic and policy institutions. In a Delphi study, students reported to have acquired new skill sets for science-policy dialogue. However, challenges remain, including the lack of time for policy work during a PhD project or the different incentive systems in academia and policy.
