- Risk and uncertainty
- Research methods, evaluation and impact
- Science advice
- Science diplomacy

Case studies
Colleagues in STEaPP worked with the University of Rwanda and Rwanda's National Council for Science and Technology on the delivery of a training programme for Science Granting Councils and other science system actors in Sub-Saharan Africa.
A training module for strengthening science system interactions in Sub-Saharan Africa was developed, as well as two one-day, hands-on training sessions in Rwanda.
