The BRiDGE Project, launched in 2023 as an Erasmus+ Higher Education Cooperation project, addresses critical gaps between the knowledge and expertise of researchers, policy makers and civil society organisations that often prevent effective connection of evidence with policy and practice.
Looking ahead to 2025 – 2028, the BRiDGE Project will focus on establishing a more formal network structure, including through expanded training that includes mid-career researchers, civil society actors and knowledge brokers, and strengthening engagement with policy makers. We recognise the challenges inherent in this work, particularly in establishing sustainable funding mechanisms. However, our experience demonstrates that meaningful intersectoral collaboration is both possible and essential for more effective,evidence-informed policy and practice.
This sustainability strategy outlines concrete steps for maintaining and expanding the BRiDGE Project’s work. We are guided by our shared mission to improve the relevance and visibility of evidence-informed education policy and practice. Our approach emphasises gradual, sustainable growth while maintaining our commitment to open science principles and democratic engagement.
