Description du projet
Un regard éthique sur la recherche et l’innovation
Le rôle de la recherche et de l’innovation responsables (RIR), tel que conçu par l’UE, est déterminant dans la conception et la promotion de pratiques de recherche et d’innovation durables. Le projet ETHNA System, financé par l’UE, entend développer et appliquer un système de gouvernance éthique pour l’utilisation de la RIR dans les centres d’enseignement supérieur, de financement et de recherche (HEFRC). Le système est composé d’un bureau Ethna et de quatre outils et méthodologies de travail pour la RIR. Son objectif est de proposer des interventions institutionnelles pour relever les défis éthiques auxquels les HEFRC sont confrontés dans le cadre de leurs activités de recherche et d’innovation. Le but est d’assurer et de développer un financement durable avec un impact maximal dans les cinq ans suivant l’achèvement du projet, basé sur l’engagement avec les citoyens et la société.
Objectif
The Objective of Ethna System is to develop and implement an Ethics Governance System for grounding good practices in RRI (ETHNA System) in Higher Education, Funding and Research Centres (HEFRCs). The Project will implement and validate a new formal organizational structure within the management structure in 6 different HERCs of the consortium from 6 countries and 3 type of contexts: 2 universities, 2 funding research centres and 2 technological parks in ES, NO, EE, BG, AT and PT.
The ETHNA System is composed by an Ethna office (integrity office) and 4 tools and work methodologies for RRI (ethical code, ethics committee, ethical hotline and process indicators to report) that implied institutional changes to respond to ethical challenges that HEFRCs are facing in EU context nowadays in its R&I activities. The institutional changes will be sustainable beyond the lifetime of the project funding because will be implemented and institutionalised in the HEFRCs management structures throughout the Ethna office. A Sustainability Plan will be developed to maximise the impact during 5 years after the end of the project.
Therefore, the development of the project will involve a mutual learning among the consortium partners which have different level of expertise and knowledge in the five dimensions of RRI (research ethics and integrity, gender equality, open science, citizen’s engagement). Consortia will contribute to 22 MoRRI indicators and 7 SDG goals (16 targets). GOV2 and GOV3 indicators are particularly focused with KPI project indicators.
The process to define ETHNA System is based on Quadruple Helix Mode (QHM) where the involvement of all stakeholders in R&I and the implementation of the ETHNA System and its institutionalization require a sustainable engagement with citizens and society as a whole. Moreover, ETHNA System includes the evaluation of the activities in order to communicate with transparency and publicity its achievements and points of improvement.
