1.‐ Responsible Research and Innovation 2.‐ RRI Tools, a project to foster Responsible Research and Innovation for society, with society
Tackling Societal Challenges Horizon 2020 reflects the policy priorities of the Europe 20201 strategy and addresses major concerns shared by citizens in Europe and elsewhere. A challenge‐based approach will bring together resources and knowledge across different fields, technologies and disciplines, including social sciences and the humanities. Funding will be focused on the following challenges: ‐ Health, demographic change and wellbeing; ‐ Food security, sustainable agriculture, marine and maritime research, and the bio‐economy ‐ Secure, clean and efficient energy; ‐ Smart, green and integrated transport; ‐ Inclusive, innovative and secure societies; ‐ Climate action, resource efficiency and raw materials
“We need ambition at a policy level to support the
best science for the world and not just the best
science in the world”
Morten Østergaard “Science in Dialogue Conference”.
Opening session. Denmark
“The dialogue between science and society has
never been so important”.

Polemics on the scientific method and science comm., specially Open Access
Education Gender equality
• For every male member of a
commitee of seven, a woman
candidate has 14% less chance
of being promoted than a male
candidate. (Spanish study)
• Between 1997 and 2000, ten
drugs were withdrawn from
the US market because of life‐
threatening health effects –
four of this were more
dangerous to woman. Part of
the problem is that preclinical
research uses primarly male
animals
Structural change in research institutions:
Enhancing excellence, gender equality and
efficiency in research and innovation. EC.What is the level of involvement citizens should have when it
• 77% of Europeans comes to decisions made about science and technology?
believe that science Answer: Public dialogue is required (Req: 55% ‐ Not Req: 37%)
and technology have
a positive impact in
society
• 62% agree that
science makes our
way of life change
too fast
• 55% think that
public dialogue is
required when it
comes to decisions
made about science
and technology
Special Eurobarometer 401. Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI), Science and TechnologyESF Science Policy Briefing 50
Responsible Research and Innovation “RRI is a transparent, interactive process, by which societal actors and innovators become mutually responsive to each other with a view to the (ethical) acceptability, sustainability and societal desirability of the innovation process and its marketable products (in order to allow a proper embedding of scientific and technological advances in our society)” (Von Shomberg definition) RRI DIMENSIONS: Anticipatory, reflective, deliberative, responsive. (Owen et al. framework)
La RRI tiene 5 componentes:
Public Engagement
• “Escojamos juntos, diseñemos la ciencia
para y con la sociedad”: Hay que involucrar a
toda la sociedad en los procesos de Gender equality Education
investigación e innovación.
• “Desarrollemos todo el potencial”: Todos –
tanto hombres como mujeres‐ deben estar a
bordo. Se ha de afrontar la infra‐
representación de la mujer en la ciencia. Ethics Open access
• “Aprendizaje creativo, ideas frescas”: Hay
que fomentar las vocaciones científicas. Se ha
Governance
de mejorar el proceso de educación desde las
edades más tempranas.
• “Hagamos lo correcto y hagámoslo bien”: La sociedad europea se basa en valores
compartidos. Hay que respetar los derechos fundamentales. El 4º componente es la Ética
• “Compartamos los resultados para avanzar” El acceso abierto a los resultados debe ser una
realidad.Inspired in Phillipe Galiay presentation at EC and EFC Workshop RRI & Foundations, Brussels, 2013

in Europe into a process targeted at the grand
challenges of our time (science for society)
where deliberation and reflection are coupled with
action (science with society)
by training science leaders in the RRI process and by
raising awareness of the concept through Europe.

Easy?Challenges
• I am already responsible!
• Tension between science for society and the
principle of scientific freedom
• Lack of knowledge and capacity for RRI
• What is RRI in the different domains of science?
• What is a tool? Which are the most needed tools?
• Regional diversity
• ...

What is a tool in RRI Tools?
“Stakeholdarized” tools
1. Self‐assessment tools: To auto evaluate performance on RRI
2. RRI Digital capsules: From text to video, guidelines on specific
actions to “become RRI”
3. Good Practice Standards: Good practices with guides for
application
4. Training and advocacy resources: Sets of instructions for trainers of
the toolkit
5. Library: A repository of reports, papers, handbooks, books… on RRI.
