Description
RRI2SCALE aimed to support European Regional Authorities in developing and implementing successful regional Research and Innovation (R&I) policies that spearhead sustainable development and economic growth, while simultaneously advancing inclusiveness and quality of life. To this end, RRI2SCALE designed, implemented and validated a robust methodological approach to assist the EU’s R&I authorities to effectively and sustainably promote the development and implementation of responsible and inclusive policies in the domains that citizens care for the most, namely intelligent cities, transport and energy as key drivers for regional sustainable development. Four EU Regions [Hordaland (NO), Overijssel (NL), Kriti (GR) and Galicia (ES)] participated in the pilot activities of the project, toward developing more responsible R&I agendas.
