Responsible Research and Innovation
ü a transparent, interactive process by which societal actors and innovators become mutually responsive to each other
üwith a view to the (ethical) acceptability, sustainability and societal desirability of the innovation process and its marketable products.
(Renè von Schomberg, EC – 2011 - http://about.me/Rene.vonSchomberg)
4
Ø Ethical acceptability of R&I:
Ø EU charter on Fundamental Rights
Ø EU risk based regulations & directives
(precaution, safety, acceptable risk of products)
Ø Sustainability and societal desirability:
Ø R&I policies driven by societal needs and challenges (e.g. H2020)
Ø Sustainable development
Ø Treaty on European Union (gender, quality of life, etc)
RRI: normative points and policy actions
à RRI, stakeholder and public engagement (and similar concepts such as co-creation
and open innovation) gaining interest in policy and business strategies
à Majority of research lines in H2020 WPs including at least some aspects on RRI
Integrating RRI along the value chain
• Anticipate ethical and social impacts• Engage stakeholders to align R&I process with users and societal needs• Promote diversity (e.g. gender aspects) in R&I processes• Openness and transparency in information and communication on R&I• Pursue excellence in R&I (science, ethics, social aspects)• Foster scientific education

RRI, CSR & S-LCA
• CSR: ‘The responsibility of enterprises for their impacts on society’ (European Commission 2011)
• S-LCA: ‘a method to assess the social aspects of products, their actual and potential positive as well as negative impacts along the life cycle’ (UNEP, 2009)
àRRI provides a focus on R&D and innovation processes, and early stage intervention in the R&I value chain (anticipation of impacts)
The Prisma project (2016-2019)
• Evidence on how RRI can improve the innovation process• Integration of RRI in the R&I and the CSR policies of 8 companies
active in the field of transformative technologies• CSR/RRI Prisma exemplar roadmap, based on the 8 pilots roadmaps,
that helps industries to implement RRI
Transformative Technologies (TT): Transform production and change the relation of the company with users,
suppliers and stakeholders. Contribute to a sustainable society and to competitiveness of Europe
• MEDIUM COMPANY: Advanced medical therapies for cancer diseases • SMALL: Safer and more effective dermo-cosmeticsNanotech
• MEDIUM: Sustainable Production of synthetic agarwood products• PPP: sustainable packaging, coatings from waste algae biorefineriesSyn bio
• SMALL: IoT distributed data platform for increased personal control ofdata• MEDIUM: IoT in cleaning, to improve public health and hygieneIoT
• MEDIUM: automated vehicles to reduce traffic, pollution, land use• SMALL: drones, artificial intelligence and IoT solutions toward for safe, and
acceptable use of drones in cities

Prisma pilots: Company size, R&I project and (initial) RRI vision
Prisma methodology (1): workflow
ASSESSMENT (COMPANY, R&I PROJECT)
REFLECTION(strategic level)
EXPERIMENTATION (operational level)
ROAD-MAPPING (Long term strategy building)
R&I Project: technology, TRL (Tech Readiness level), ethical and social uncertainties, stakeholders mapping
Company: Values and stakes, resources, capabilities
Perform RRI actions(stakeholder dialogues, design for values, etc.)
RRI vision, links between technology and societal goals, embedding RRI in the R&I project/company, RRI Keyperformance indicators
Prisma methodology (2): actions and ways of interaction with the company
Ø Support ethical analysis, value scenarios to reflect on ELSA (ethical, legal, social aspects and impacts) of the R&I project
Ø Organize dialogues and co-creation initiatives on ELSA with stakeholders (partners, professional users, users and association of users, regulators, authorities, local communities.…)
Ø Advise on RRI and CSR tools, including social responsibility, sustainability, innovation management, safety tools and methods
Ø Awareness-raising and training initiatives for personnel on ethical and societal aspects of R&I
Ø Reflection and support on design for values (include values and social considerations in the design of R&I products)
Interaction with the company: expert advice, support and monitoring; embedded ethicists,
