Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) Prompts and Practice Cards: a Tool to Support Responsible Practice

Portillo, Virginia; Greenhalgh, Chris; Craigon, Peter J.; Ten Holter, Carolyn

Abstract

Researchers often find it hard to know where, when and how to start when applying Responsible Innovation approaches to their own research projects and proposals. Based on experience supporting a range of researchers and projects, we have developed a small set of concept cards, the Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) Prompts and Practice cards, which highlight 18 different aspects of RRI, each with key questions and prompts for action. Initial use with groups of researchers and PhD students has found them to be accessible and effective in prompting reflection and discussion, including raising previously unconsidered aspects of responsible innovation. Based on this feedback we are now developing a second release of the cards.
