As the science and knowledge service of the European Commission, the Joint Research Centre's mission is to support EU policies with independent evidence throughout the whole policy cycle. The JRC has a long-lasting cooperation with several EU Delegations and supports them through its wide-ranging expertise. Several activities have the potential to strengthen the impact of programming, implementation and monitoring as well as building partnerships. These presentations were delivered during a series of workshops presenting JRC’s tools with the aim to establish a more structured and strategic dialogue with EU Delegations and INTPA staff.
