Regional Action Plan to support the governance of Responsible Research & Innovation in the Southern & Eastern Regional Operational Programme 2014 - 2020
RRI dimensions are considered in the process of evaluation, selection and impact assessment of RDI co- funded projects. However, there is a need to integrate a more comprehensive system to embed the RRI dimension in the management, delivery and governance of the process (designing calls for projects, evaluation criteria for RRI elements, supporting potential applications in understanding the new procedures, monitoring metrics) and to raise awareness of policy managers of the RRI dimension and its potential application. This will assist the S&E region of Ireland to increase the level of commercialisation of research by the HEIs in the programme area in line with the S3 strategy.
MARIE is the first project in Ireland to directly address the lack of RRI in regional policy giving it much needed visibility.
