On 22 January 2019 ENERGISE lead Dr Frances Fahy will be participating and presenting in Brussels at the final SHAPE ENERGY conference. The overall objective of the event is to help create better energy policies with contribution from social sciences and humanities.
Energy policies cannot fulfil their maximum potential if the knowledge stemming from social sciences and humanities research is not factored into the decision-making process. Citizens should be at the core of all policies – including those to do with energy. This conference will underline how crucial social data is to accelerating the decarbonisation of our economy and making a real dent in climate change. It will also present concrete recommendations on how to advance and better design future European energy policies in the context of the upcoming research and innovation framework; Horizon Europe.
