Types of Policy Windows
Key Events – Strategic spaces (such as consultations, policy forums, high-level meetings, or conferences) where proposals can be presented, discussed, or promoted directly with decision-makers.
Ongoing Political Processes – Policy reforms, government programmes, or strategies under development or revision, including national or EU initiatives, that create opportunities to provide timely input.
Receptive Actors (Potential Takers) – Public authorities with the mandate, interest, or capacity to adopt, adapt, or scale up project results (e.g., municipalities, ministries, regional governments, inter-municipal platforms).
Gaps in Policy Frameworks – Missing or insufficient instruments or legal frameworks that hinder the implementation or scaling of solutions (e.g., regulatory inconsistencies, lack of enabling legislation, outdated policies).
