Connecting #research with policy starts with understanding how decisions are made.
On 8 October 2026, Ana Ismailaja represented the Center for Comparative and International Studies (CCIS Albania) at the #COST training “Understanding EU decision-making processes – how to advocate your interest.”
The training explored the roles and competences of EU institutions, how to identify policy stakeholders relevant to #COST Actions, and practical approaches to engaging with them.
Ana’s participation reflects #CCIS’s commitment to strengthening its capacity to connect research, institutional cooperation and policy engagement. These skills are valuable for communicating research priorities, building meaningful partnerships and bringing scientific knowledge into European policy discussions.
