 Researchers work hard to find answers to important questions for both science and society. They contribute to scientific progress, innovation and knowledge creation for all. Scientists seek to carry out research in an open and responsible way. At the same time, they face increasing demands to produce research that achieves excellent economic and social impact. Responsible research and innovation aims to create a setting where science meets the needs of society. The EU-funded project, fit for RRI, develops training programs and strategies for the practical implementation of responsible research concepts. The main goal is to increase the interaction between different interest groups and to support greater openness and inclusivity in research and society. To encourage a responsible and innovative research environment, the RRI process should be diverse and inclusive, anticipated and reflective, open and transparent as well as responsive and adaptive to change. But how do you conduct research according to the principles of RRI? It is important to consider the possible impacts of your work at every step of the research lifecycle. Involve a wide range of societal actors as early as possible to ensure the social relevance of your research question. Collaborate with citizens to collect data and present early results to various parties to receive valuable input on your research. Publish in open access journals and choose open peer review to guarantee transparency and access to knowledge. Engage the public and spread knowledge in order to build a bridge between science and society. Responsible research and innovation is not just a set of norms and guidelines. It is a process that promotes interaction among different societal actors and provides flexible tools to overcome conflicting interests and maximize innovation. Fit for RRI offers strategies for a transformative change in the research environment and enables you to make RRI an open science effective in your research. Together we can create a cultural change that meets the needs of research and society. Join our trainings and workshops at fitforrri.eu and start practicing RRI in your research organization now.
