- Story Map of the Royal Netherlands Standardization Institute on Institutionalizing Responsibility The Royal Netherlands Standardization Institute (NEN) has started various research projects to explore how standardization can be made more socially responsible. The Delft University of Technology has explored what factors motivate, obstruct, and facilitate social responsibility in standardisation processes. As such, it supports NEN in understanding how it can better align its activities with the values, needs, and expectations of society. 2022. 07. 25. view

- Story Map of Tecnalia on Shaping Responsibility in an Applied Research Center The Change Lab of TECNALIA aims to systematically introduce and implement RRI principles and reflect on the relationship between science and society in TECNALIA. The Lab is led by POINT (Policies for Innovation and Technology), a cross-cutting policy team from Tecnalia, which enriches TECNALIA’s value proposition due to its capacity to incorporate diverse political, social, and economic dimensions based on a better understanding of the innovation ecosystem dynamics. TECNALIA is the largest centre for applied research and technological development in Spain, a benchmark in Europe, and a member of the Basque Research and Technology Alliance. 2022. 12. 08. view

- Responsible Innovation and De Jure Standardisation: An In-Depth Exploration of Moral Motives, Barriers, and Facilitators Standardisation is increasingly seen as a means to insert ethics in innovation processes. We examine the institutionalisation of responsible innovation in de jure standardisation as this is an important but unexplored research area. In de jure standardisation, stakeholders collaborate in committees to develop standards. We adopt the anticipation, inclusion, reflexivity, and responsiveness responsible innovation framework as our theoretical lens. Our study suggests that responsible standardisation processes should embody forms of these four dimensions. We investigate the institutionalisation of these dimensions and identify 96 factors that can motivate, hinder, or facilitate responsible standardisation. Factors were found through in-depth interviews with managers of a standard developing organisation. These are subsequently validated/rejected using surveys completed by committee representatives. The results suggest that the social desirability of standards is not self-evident. This study could pave the way for future research on responsible standardisation processes, complementing research on legitimacy, responsible innovation, and standardisation. 2022. 12. 07. view
- Ethical AI: Why and How? Given the numerous opportunities provided by rapidly evolving digital innovations, we need to address and assess the social and political risks that come with naively applying AI algorithms, especially in high-risk sectors. We argue that though the existing guidelines and regulations are a good starting point, we still need to implement effective solutions that can be integrated into the current workflow of developing ethical AI applications. We introduce the idea of AI Ethics Labs as institutionalised “spaces for doubt” providing platforms for a frequent and intensive collaboration between developers and social scientists, thus reducing the potential risks of developed algorithms. 2022. 10. 13. view
- Public participation in mission-oriented innovation projects Mission-oriented innovation policy is currently gaining renewed interest as an approach for addressing societal challenges. One of the promises is that missions can mobilise and align diverse stakeholders around a shared goal. Recent literature underlines the importance of public participation (e.g. municipalities and civil society organisations) in the socioeconomic transformations required for attaining missions. We ask how public participation differs among (non-)mission-oriented innovation projects. Drawing on a database containing Dutch government-funded innovation projects, we investigate whether mission-oriented projects are associated with earlier, more open, and more influential forms of public participation than conventional projects. 2023. 03. 28. view
- Co-Change animation video This is a short animation film about responsible research and innovation (RRI). The video shows why it is important for researchers, research institutes to build relationships with society and how to integrate this into their institutional operations. The video was created by the Co-Change Project which supports the implementation of institutional change among research and innovation actors in the areas of research ethics, open science, science education, gender equality, and sustainability. 2022. 11. 06. view
- A comprehensive appraisal of RRI: From roots to leaves Responsible Research and Innovation and Responsible Innovation, as academic endeavours, have grown substantially since their birth in the previous decades. They have been used as synonyms on a structural basis, and both concepts have been studied from various disciplinary backgrounds. This paper identifies Responsible Research and Innovation’s and Responsible Innovation’s shared research topics, knowledge base, and academic organisation as a common ground for scholars to further their individual or joint research. It does so by conducting a keyword analysis and a collaboration analysis, combined with a reference analysis of their academic literature. 2021. 07. 28. view
