What to Expect:

In this capacity-building session, we’ll explore how you can effectively include citizens in your research programmes and why citizen engagement is crucial to Open Responsible Research and Innovation (ORRI). The workshop will cover essential topics like:

• Why citizens engage in research & innovation
• The motivations behind citizen involvement
• The impact of citizen participation in research
• The potential risks of over-exploiting public involvement in ORRI

The Session Includes:

• Workshop (1.5 hours): Dive into key aspects of citizen engagement in research programmes, featuring 10-minute presentations, practical examples, and interactive exercises.
• Clinic (1 hour): A peer-learning session for sharing challenges and ideas. Together, we’ll find solutions in a collaborative environment.

Who Should Attend?
This session is tailored for researchers, innovators, and Open Research & Innovation intermediaries looking to improve their participatory processes and engage citizens in research & innovation.

Meet Your Trainers:
The session will be led by the Stickydot team, experts in facilitating participatory dialogue and processes.
