Living rri:
opening research to the needs and values of society
In a world where perspectives are becoming increasingly polarised, our ability to listen and understand one another will determine the legacy we leave behind.
Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) is all about this inclusivity. We want to live in a society that communicates, shares values and respects one another, while moving towards our common goals. But as with any relationship, this is a challenge. It is a challenge that requires change from all parties. And change is difficult.

MOBILE NUCLEUS
Get to know our modular approaches!
|
Mobile Nuclei (MN) within the NUCLEUS project consist of a minimum of twenty units to test innovative RRI approaches in different settings and environments. Just in September 2017our partners held six events: European Researchers' Night (Tartu, Estonia and Perugia, Italy), V&S (Stockholm, Sweden), Lower Silesian Festival (Wroclaw, Poland), Science College (Böchum, Germany)and Science Meeting (Tbilisi, Georgia).
Although there is still plenty to report, here you will find some stories of past Mobile Nucleus events.

FROM CO-EXISTENCE TO CO-CREATION
Embedded Nucleus fosters “Open Science” at Rhine Waal-University
|
Founded in 2009, Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences (HSRW) is one of the youngest universities in Germany. With more than 7.000 students from over 120 countries, HSRW is also one of the most international universities in Europe. With its two campus locations in Kleve and Kamp-Lintfort, HSRW is a university that is both deeply rooted in the Lower Rhine and connected to the world. The founding of HSRW was based on a strong political commitment to establish a new regional institution of higher education fostering structural change and innovation processes in and for the Lower-Rhine region. The major goal of the Embedded Nucleus at HSRW is to build upon this “founding history” by connecting Responsible Research and Innovation processes with knowledge-based development strategies and socio-economic challenges in the Lower Rhine region. Inside the academic institution, the Embedded Nucleus encourages the development of open and transfer-oriented organizational structures and dialogue-oriented formats closely related to the Strategic Development Plan of the university (Hochschulentwicklungsplan), published in 2017.
