We are delighted to announce that the 7th TRAMI EMiN Meeting will take place on the 23 January 2024 from 14:00 to 16:00 pm. The workshop is organized online. With its missions, the EU has set ambitious goals to address current societal challenges. In order to achieve these goals, the integration of all stakeholders, in particular citizens and business, is of great importance. Co-creation can serve as a tool for facilitating inclusive processes on our way to finding joint solutions to complex social issues. Co-Creation: best practices and challenges The EMiN Network brings together various actors from the field to communicate and discuss current challenges and progress in implementing co-creative methods and processes. This edition of our EMiN Meeting will be held in cooperation with our colleagues from DLR Projektträger. On Tuesday, experts and stakeholders will discuss the topic: “Co-Creation in the EU Missions: Opening up policy making processes”. We will focus on various tools and methods you can use to unlock the potential of co-creation in your projects and implementation experiences and practices. The event offers you the opportunity to exchange ideas, learn from best practice experiences of our experts and jointly develop new insights. The EMiN meeting is open to all official EMiN members, the TRAMI consortium and the general public. If you wish to participate, feel free to send us an Email via info@missionnetwork.eu.

On 9 November, the mission data platform went online!   The Mission Data Platform was launched In the TRAMI Mutual Learning Event on National Mirror Board Structures for EU missions on the 9th of November. The Mission Data Platform is a repository and database that brings together multi-component knowledge on mission-oriented policies in the EU Member States and associated countries. The launch is the completion of an intensive process of framework and database development carried out by the TRAMI mapping team (contact: mapping@trami.eu). The platform provides knowledge on Governance structures, like central strategic coordination, its organizers or legal basis; on Governance activities, like awareness building or national goals; an overview about e.g. financial, regulatory or soft instruments and actors that are involved in mission coordination or implementation. These data can be approached via dashboard both, per EU mission or per country and allows for overviews, comparisons, and targeted networking. For example, in the Mutual Learning Event, data of the Mission Data Platform on mission governance approaches has provided input for a focussed comparison across Countries. This facilitates co-operation between stakeholders and supports the successful implementation of EU missions and mission-oriented policies. Please access the Platform here
