Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) in the UK: the post BREXIT future? Workshop

This is a day-long workshop to discuss the current state of responsible research and innovation in the UK, and where the research field might head next. The workshop aims to develop a strategy/roadmap, which enables all UK academics working in this field to feel that there is a way forward. Therefore, it is envisaged that this will be an open and interactive discussion, that will allow participants to co-design the agenda and therefore the outcomes.

Who Should Attend?

• People doing research directly on and with RRI

• Researchers interested in topics connected to RRI

• Research funders and policy makers who recognise the significance of RRI

Why you should attend

• Contribute to the building of an RRI community in the UK

• Contribute to the discussion over the future of RRI funding in the UK

• Shape the future strategy for research policy in RRI

• Develop strategies to embed the UK RRI community within the wider global context

Therefore, in this workshop we ask you to join us with the aim to discuss 2 fundamental questions:

• Where next for RRI research and funding, post-Brexit and the proposed exit from the European frameworks?

• What, as a network of RRI interested organisations in the UK, can we do together to shape the RRI landscape, in particular over the next 2 to 5 years?
