TRANSFORM at GRACE webinars: recordings available

News

For almost three years, GRACE project partners have worked towards implementing fundamental institutional change in 6 research performing and funding organisations. With an intense mutual learning programme and a co-creation environment, six expert partners have supported six other partners in developing a set of specific RRI-orientated Grounding Actions in their organisation. These actions have provided a basis for developing tailored 8-year RRI Roadmaps within these institutions to ensure their sustainability and full implementation over the long-term.

From 26 October to 14 December, GRACE project organised eight thematic webinars to share their findings and address different topics related to GRACE, inviting internal and external experts.
