Über die Veranstaltung
Description
Would you like to learn what you should consider when preparing for an expert hearing in a committee of the Swiss federal parliament? Or how to ensure your statements are understood in the right context and preempt instrumentalisation?
The Franxini Simulation – Expert Hearing in a Parliamentary Committee (workshop in English) will offer exactly that. The workshop gives an introduction to the Swiss political system and to impact-oriented communication, providing you with the essential knowledge and practical tips for interactions between researchers and policymakers. These skills can then be trained directly and immersively in a simulation of a committee hearing in the Swiss Parliament, where each participant will take on the role of either an expert or a parliamentarian.
This Franxini Simulation is open to researchers of all career levels and disciplines at UZH. It is organized by the Department of Political Science (IPZ) at the University of Zurich…
