Full course description

Responsible research and innovation (RRI) is a rapidly emerging framework for the development of research projects that focuses on the potential effects – both positive and negative – of new innovations on society and the environment. With a focus on gender equity, ethical integrity and community empowerment, it aims to make research more sustainable, responsive and effective. 

 

This course gives you a practical set of skills and concepts that will allow you put the principles of responsible research into practice in your own research projects. By analysing case studies and working closely with experts in the field, you’ll develop strategies to ensure your research is future-focused, ethically sound and ready to change the world for the better.
