🔬🤝 The NRP 80 Pairing Scheme connects Swiss researchers & MPs to bridge science & politics. On Sept 9 & 10, Rulla Sutter and Annika Rohrmoser met with MPs Samira Marti & Christine Bulliard-Marbach to discuss COVID-19’s impact on poverty and loneliness. #NRP80 #PairingScheme #Covid19 #SNSF

50 years of National Research Programmes The NRPs develop solutions to the challenges of our time and foster dialogue between researchers, policymakers and society.

Since 1975, the National Research Programmes (NRPs) have connected scientific research with society's challenges. From climate change to the pandemic, 84 programmes have shaped Swiss policy. Learn how NRP 80 fosters dialogue between science and politics. 📖 Read more: shorturl.at/xAGm9 #NRP80 #SNSF

🚨 The NRP 80 synthesis is underway! 15 research groups discussed COVID-19’s impact on inequalities and welfare, highlighting the role of civil society in crisis support. Their insights are guiding the development of the synthesis. Looking forward to the next steps! #NRP80 #SNSF
