He shares an upcoming document for #ISPCWP national focal points by @unitar.bsky.social with the support of #Switzerland ahead of #ISPCWP1. It provides a practical guide based on best experiences of other science-policy interfaces to equip governments for effective stakeholder engagement.

Stephen Joyce of @unitar.bsky.social presents key functions that #ISPCWP national focal points could undertake as primary links between the government & the scientific community:

🔹 Nomination & selection of experts
🔹 Scoping of deliverables
🔹 Drafting & preview of deliverables

"Our responsibility is ensuring governments and stakeholders are prepared to participate meaningfully."

Jorge Ocana of @unitar.bsky.social highlights #ISPCWP is a step in the right direction for coordinated action on pollution, based on robust scientific advice.

Michel Tschirren of #Switzerland underscores that the #ISPCWP is a landmark achievement, providing a space where science informs policy.

He reiterates Switzerland's 🇨🇭 commitment to host the panel's Secretariat, building on #GENeva ecosystem for chemicals, waste & pollution governance.

"Carry forward the #GENeva spirit of cooperation, dialogue and shared responsibility."

We thank everyone for joining #SciencePolicy Day that aimed to build more bridges between science & policy and transform knowledge into action & action into hope.

Throughout the day, scientists, policymakers and science-policy interface focal points held Lightning Talks, underscoring the importance of collaboration among the various #SciencePolicy interfaces, scientific disciplines and to make the panels inclusive and intergenerational.

During the Interactive Science Policy Fair, participants had the chance to interact & exchange with over 20 organizations working on the interstices of #SciencePolicy, showcasing how #GENeva advances #SciencePolicyForPlanetaryCrisis through the work of experts in Geneva & beyond.

Speakers in various discussions underscored the importance of collaboration among #SciencePolicy interfaces, meaningful inclusion, robust procedures, including on conflicts of interest, and stronger financial support for the different panels.
