Call: Bildung und Fähigkeiten: Stärkung von Europas jungen Innovatoren

Besser zu verstehen welche Risiken, Chancen und Herausforderungen aktuell für europäische Gesellschaften gegeben sind, ist Ziel von Forschung zu Inklusion im Rahmen  dieser gesellschaftlichen Herausforderung. Forschung zum Bereich inklusive Gesellschaften befasst sich mit den Themenbereichen Vertrauen in gesellschaftliche Institutionen, Wachstum, Migration, Integration und demografischer Wandel. Auch die Rolle Europas als globaler Akteur, besonders unter Menschenrechtsaspekten, sowie integrative und ökologische Raum- und Stadtplanung sind Thema.

Folgende Beschreibung ist nur auf Englisch verfügbar:

Europe is facing the need to identify the obstacles to and to find untapped sources of growth and employment, renewing the legitimacy of public policy-making, especially through greater citizens’ involvement, and of delivering better public services for all.

These issues need to be understood and addressed (cf. stronger evidence-base) in order for Europe to progress at socio-economic, political, educational and cultural levels, taking into account an increasingly interconnected and interdependent world. An emerging approach for tackling many of these issues is to encourage creativity and collaboration between various societal actors through co-creation. It is therefore proposed to focus on co-creation for growth and inclusion: engaging citizens, users, academia, social partners, public authorities, businesses including SMEs, creative sectors and social entrepreneurs in processes that span from identifying problems to delivering solutions.

Proposals are invited against the following topics:

• Education and skills: empowering Europe’s young innovators
• User-driven innovation: value creation through design-enabled innovation
• Piloting demand-driven collaborative innovation models in Europe
• Applied co-creation to deliver public services
• Co-creation between public administrations: once-only principle
• Policy-development in the age of big data: data-driven policy-making, policy-modelling and policy-implementation
• Towards a new growth strategy in Europe - Improved economic and social measurement, data and official statistics
• Better integration of evidence on the impact of research and innovation in policy making
• A European map of knowledge production and co-creation in support of research and innovation for societal challenges
