Evolving Policy Settings Sample Clauses

Evolving Policy Settings. The SUPER MoRRI project consortium recognised the need for reflexivity about its own assumptions from the outset of the project. This was not least due to uncertainty regarding future policy settings and the currency of the concept of RRI as based on the six ‘key areas’. Accordingly, from the outset, SUPER MoRRI adopted a broad and open definition of responsibility in research and innovation cultures and practices. This was believed to increase the potential for the outputs generated to have relevance and value beyond the lifespan of the project itself. At the time of the Second Interim Review of SUPER MoRRI in March 2022, it was suggested that the project should indeed pay close attention to the changing policy environment in Europe and within the European Commission. The conceptualisation of responsibility adopted in the project thus seems justified in retrospect. Through the formal project review process for SUPER MoRRI, the Consortium received advice that the policy climate had shifted toward a heightened emphasis on the value of Open Science and Citizen Science as drivers of responsible practices and cultures in R&I. This shift seems to reflect and understanding of different areas of focus for institutional change as valuable in their own terms, rather than as components of an overarching concept (RRI). Whilst RRI may now be a less prominent concept in institutional change processes addressed to R&I, its constituent elements and principles were continued in the ongoing development of PROMISE. While some adjustments to planned outputs were made that increased the resources eventually provided in relation to Open Science, more work is required to enhance the monitoring of Citizen Science. This remains an opportunity for the next iteration of PROMISE under its new management. A general point that can be noted is that the project format as managed under Horizon 2020 (as was SUPER MoRRI’s case) included some rigidities that did not make adaptation to take account of shifting policy priorities as easy as it might have been. Changes to funding arrangements that have now been made may assist in improving the need for flexibility and adaptability that can arise under such evolving policy conditions.
