EASAC Secretariat and Programme Contacts
The EASAC Secretariat is hosted by the Austrian Academy of Sciences and is based in Vienna, Austria. EASAC’s Programme Directors lead EASAC’s programmes in producing independent, evidence-based reports. The Steering Panel Co-Chairs lead EASAC’s Steering Panels in advising EASAC on potential projects where EASAC can add unique value and have high impact on EU policy.
The Secretariat's responsibilities include:
- Maintaining the working process of EASAC's groups, including the organisation of meetings of Council, Bureau, Programme Steering Panels and working groups
- Project management of EASAC working groups' outputs towards publication, launch & dissemination of EASAC Reports and Statements
- Liaising with EU policy-makers, EU institutions and other EU and national agencies of relevance to EASAC's work
- Maintaining close contact with EASAC member academies and liaising with other academy networks, e.g. IAP, NASAC, ALLEA
- Organising EASAC's communication activities, such as press releases, newsletter and website
