The project’s main objective is “to provide scientific evidence, data, analysis and policy intelligence to support directly Directorate General for Research and Innovation (DG-RTD) research funding activities and policy-making activities in relation with Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI)”.

The broad objective implies a cascade of work that includes conceptualising and operationalizing, de-veloping a sound data collection approach before data can be collected and analysed, and conclusions and recommendations can be drawn.

The study will cover defined RRI dimensions. In terms of geographic scope, the assignment will cover all EU-28 countries and as far as possible and relevant, countries associated to FP7 and H2020.

Expected results will be disseminated through annual monitoring reports on the developments of RRI dimensions, scientific notes will that will address individual RRI dimensions and a summarising policy note. Furthermore there will be reports on RRI benefits and a final report.

The project will use a mix of methods such as a literature review, interviews, case studies, surveys and it will explore future trends in a visioning workshop and discuss the outcomes in a larger dissemination context.
