Expected outcomes:

• New and strengthened connections among participants that may prove useful in view of elaborating RRI issues and its operationalization in practice;
• Workshop report on inclusive and responsible research and innovation in MSCA programming and related policy areas—presenting results from the workshop, as well as from research conducted in advance by UvA and the NewHoRRIzon Consortium;
• Identification of a number of useful activities that participants may (like to see) develop further to foster inclusive and responsible research and innovation.

Workshop Objectives:

• To convene a diverse group of researchers, policy advisors, funding brokers and other stakeholders related to European research, in particularly the MSCA funding scheme;
• To explore and connect ideas on and experiences with fostering responsibility and associated themes (e.g. public engagement, gender equality, open access, science education, ethics, responsiveness and others) in research and funding practices;
• To develop and share knowledge about what RRI may entail in practice;
• To elaborate potential actions (‘pilot actions’) and options for collaborations to support a further elaboration of responsibility in research and innovation, and its uptake in the MSCA funding scheme.
