The European Commission should harness networks of European scientists living outside the EU and train more of its own diplomats in science, to bring the full weight of science diplomacy to bear in foreign policy. That is the conclusion of 130 or so experts who have spent the past year working on what an integrated framework for EU science diplomacy could look like.
