The Erasmus+ project “Enhancing Institutional Capacities for Policy Engagement for Green and Digital Transitions” (ENGAGEgreen), funded by the European Commission, is being implemented by the Rhine-Main Universities (RMU) in cooperation with five European partner institutions.

Running from October 2023 to March 2026, the project focuses on piloting and implementing a range of dialogue and engagement formats, developing good practice examples, a policy engagement toolkit, and training materials for the delivery of in-person and virtual workshops. The activities are aimed at researchers at all career stages (R1–R4), students, and representatives from politics, public administration, and professional practice.

ENGAGEgreen seeks to enhance researchers' knowledge, skills, and competencies for policy engagement, thereby supporting effective knowledge transfer for evidence-informed policy-making in the areas of environment, fight against climate change, and digital transformation. Additionally, the project will strengthen universities' institutional capacities of policy engagement as they will be able to offer innovative trainings in these areas for researchers, students, and research managers.
