Abstract

EnRRICH is a EU funded project on Enhancing Responsible Research and Innovation through Curricula in Higher education. Its main purpose is to improve the capacity of students and staff in higher education to develop knowledge skills and attitudes to support the embedding of RRI in curricula by means of a wide range of activities. After a brief introduction to the project, the paper will present the methodology used to develop a set of self-evaluation indicators by means of participatory practices based on an RRI approach. The relevance of stakeholders’ involvement in the definition of indicators when it comes to participated evaluation will be shortly underlined. The practical steps actually taken to enhance participation and work out a shared set of evaluation indicators will be presented thereafter. Description of the process will concern: indicators generation; indicators clustering; prioritizing, redefining and reassembling clusters. Finally, the presentation will discuss some of the main methodological challenges and difficulties along with the main results of evaluation activities based on RRI principles.
