Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)
The Responsible-Industry project will design an Exemplar Implementation Plan of RRI in Industry to demonstrate how industry can work productively together with societal actors and integrate principles and methodologies of Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) into research and innovation processes. To achieve maximum impact where it is most needed, the implementation plan will focus on the grand challenge of health, demographic change and wellbeing. More specifically the project will focus on the role that research and innovation in ICT can play in addressing this challenge.
Responsible-Industry will guide interactive discussions between leading industry partners, established RRI experts, policy advisors and civil society organisations to drive the research and innovation process with the principles of RRI in mind. In doing so, Responsible-Industry will achieve the following objectives:
- Synthesis of current discourses on RRI in the industrial context, based on an extensive literature review, 30 in-depth interviews with industry thought leaders, 5 bottom-up case studies and 2 Horizon Scanning reports.
- Investigation, through practical cases and in depth dialogue with stakeholders (industry, CSOs, policy makers and emerging global stakeholders), of processes, challenges and opportunities leading to responsible innovation along specific value chains of products and applications.
- International Delphi Study of RRI in industry involving 130-150 stakeholders and an international Multi-Stakeholder workshop. - Development of a detailed implementation plan to be tested in at least 4 pilot projects.
- Reflection on the viability of the implementation plan, supported by least 15 industry-driven focus groups.
- Development of models of RRI in industry as a basis of specific recommendations to be disseminated to the various stakeholders through an Exemplar Implementation Plan of RRI in Industry.
Introduzione (Teaser)
More responsible research and innovation (RRI) can help incorporate social issues with democratic accountability with governance.
Descrizione progetto (Article)
Research and innovation (R&I) is the medium for modern society to address some of the world's most critical problems. These are related to a change in demographics, security, and environmental or social sustainability. One key area worth exploring is how R&I can be directed to tackle grand challenges in a responsible manner.
The EU-funded RESPONSIBLE-INDUSTRY (Responsible research and innovation in business and industry in the domain of ICT for, health, demographic change and wellbeing) project explores the shape of RRI in industry. RRI is an effort to shape, maintain, develop, coordinate and align existing and novel R&I-related processes. The idea is that RRI should merge social concerns and social accountability with R&I.
Work in the first six months of the project involved setting up a structure and taking initial steps that included literature-based work to arrive at an agreed interpretation of RRI. Case studies have been successfully launched thus far, and processes and procedures have been finalised to ensure smooth collaboration. The project has undertaken a Delphi Study of more than 150 experts and interviewed 30 industry experts. On this basis it is developing an implementation plan for RRI which is to be tested in 4 in-depth case studies and 15 industry-led focus groups.
This initiative will result in a better understanding of customer needs and thus foster customer satisfaction. It will show companies that hold corporate social responsibility in high regard that RRI is a good way of putting it into practice.
