This report describes how four major developments are changing the functioning of science and its relationship with society, posing challenges for science policy. These developments are: advancing digitalisation and artificial intelligence, increased direction in coordination and collaboration in the organisation of science, an increasing urgency of societal challenges, and changing international relations.
The exploration shows that more variety and new instruments in science policy are needed and provides tools for a dialogue about the future of science.
