RTI Strategy
The working group takes the necessary action in a timely and flexible manner in order to provide the best possible advice to the federal government and the responsible authorities.
Focus
2025 will see important decisions being made regarding the further implementation of the RTI Strategy 2030. FORWIT has set up a working group chaired by Sylvia Schwaag Serger, which can take the necessary action in a timely and flexible manner in order to provide the best possible advice to the federal government and the responsible authorities.
In the first half of the year, the working group was primarily involved in discussing the results of the mid-term evaluation of the RTI strategy. Over the summer, the working group developed a recommendation for the creation of the RTI Pact 2027-29.
