Re:ERUA

Research and Engagement for the European Reform University Alliance

Started in November 2021, the Research component of the European Reform University Alliance, Re:ERUA aims at developing the research trajectory of the ERUA

Re:ERUA intends to rethink research and innovation from the perspective of participatory and inclusive societal engagement, thus showcasing ERUA as an engaged European University.

This project is funded by the European Union under the Horizon 2020 programme.

Re:ERUA

Innovation and societal engagement

The aim of this working group is to exploring Societal Engagement within ERUA and foster the engagement for Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) of all sectors’ organizations and citizens through good governance, mutual learning, agreed practices and multi-actor and public engagement initiatives in research and innovation.

We explore fellow researchers’ ideas and practices within collaborative research projects

Mapping of initiatives relating to innovation and societal engagement

This report is a research-based deliverable in Re:ERUA project aiming to foster societal engagement though Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) within the European Reform University Alliance (ERUA). Taking the inspiration from existing EU guidelines and the field of RRI, while focusing also on societal engagement and social innovation, it is contributing to the aim of ‘Science with and for Society’ objective of the European Commissions’ Horizon 2020 program.

Catalogue of approaches in social innovation and co-creation

How can academic research engage society? How do researchers understand and strive for social impact through engaging society in their research projects? To explore these questions, we undertook a mapping of collaborative research projects across five ERUA alliance Universities. These projects reflect a great diversity of collaboration formats as well as thoughts about how researchers themselves understand what collaborating with society entails

Collaborative experiments : Research – external stakeholder collaboration

Three collaborative experiments has been launched in 2022 and 2023 to analyse the collaborating processes with external stakeholders.

  1. explore sites of potential collaboration where new forms of responsible research focusing on societal engagement and innovation can take place.
  2. describe already pioneering projects of responsible research for RE:ERUA in order to potentially scale its methodologies to the entire alliance.

Re:ERUA

Open science for transparent research and public engagement

Open Science is the idea that academic findings like research data and publications should be shared as openly as possible as early as possible. In other words: As much as possible should be published transparently and made available to the public as early as possible in the academic process.

Re:ERUA pursues Open Science-related efforts in the context of ERUA by seizing synergies within the alliance to the end of enhancing Open Science- related efforts within the alliance.
