Abstract:
During this panel, a reflection will be initiated by collecting comments from different actors of the academic, governmental, diplomatic sectors and civil society sectors on their practice in terms of science diplomacy and what they would like to find in a possible Canadian policy or strategy. It will also discuss the close links that exist with national security issues. The balance between these two visions can have an impact on the vitality of the Canadian research and innovation ecosystem. It is our responsibility to document our practices in this area and to build, thanks to our knowledge, a strong vision which will transform our society of tomorrow and which will send a strong signal to global partners such as Europe or the United States which have already adopted clear positions on science diplomacy.
