We’re in the RRI Tool(s)kit

Editorial Team RRI

The STARBIOS2 guidelines on implementing responsible research and innovation have been picked up by RRI Tools and are now included in their toolkit. Follow the link below for practical guidance, inspiring cases and experiences, as well as materials, methods and tools!

We are also looking forward to our final event, where we will present the guidelines in detail and discuss with stakeholders. Join us in Brussels 27-28 April! Learn more and register for the STARBIOS2 final event.

STARBIOS2 is also organising a workshop in Cape Town, South Africa in March titled “The African and European Experience in Responsible Research and Open Science in Health and Biosciences: Towards a Common Vision?”

Get a sneak peek on what we will be talking about in Brussels and Cape Town by downloading our guideline from RRI Tools.

The guidelines aim to help readers formalize and trigger structural change aimed at introducing RRI-related practices that are appropriate to their own organisations. The  Guidelines are not a series of prescriptions, but an itinerary of reflection and self-interpretation that is addressed to different actors within the Biosciences.

From the RRI Tools summary about the guideline

The guidelines aim to help readers formalize and trigger structural change aimed at introducing RRI-related practices that are appropriate to their own organisations. The  Guidelines are not a series of prescriptions, but an itinerary of reflection and self-interpretation that is addressed to different actors within the Biosciences.

To support this itinerary of reflection and self-interpretation, the document provides (i) a description of a general RRI Model for research organisations within the biosciences, that is a set of ideas, premises and “principles of action” that define the practice of RRI in Bioscience research organisations, (ii) some practical guidance for designing interventions to promote RRI in research organisations in the Biosciences, putting into practice the RRI Model, (iii) a set of useful practices in implementing the structural change process, and (iv) information on particular STARBIOS2 cases and experiences, as well as materials, tools and sources, are also provided in the Appendix and in the Annex.
