Co-Design Approaches to Participatory Processes - Capacity Building Workshop

Join the REINFORCING’s capacity-building session on “Co-Design approaches to participatory processes” on 30th October from 3:00-5:00pm (CET). REINFORCING is the European central hub for Open and Responsible Research and Innovation (ORRI).

This session is the first in a three-part REINFORCING training series on methodological approaches to ORRI. The following sessions will focus on co-creation and co-assessment. Together, the series will offer a deep dive into the most common ways to integrate citizen and stakeholder engagement in R&I, complemented by examples of how to apply these approaches in practice.

The session is designed for researchers, innovators, and intermediaries, interested in participatory R&I practices and practical methodological tools.

Session Structure:

Crash Course - Short presentations and hands-on exercises to explore co-design principles, benefits, and applications.
Clinic- Peer-learning space for sharing experiences, asking questions, and discussing practical solutions.
