Policy and RRI recommendations Sample Clauses

Policy and RRI recommendations. The outcomes of the project will be promoted to policy making organisations, the scientific research community and to the general public through a process involving an unusually wide range of online and physical events, presentations, publications, conference papers and sessions, showcases and demonstrations. These outcomes will include better knowledge on policy and RRI and recommendations resulting from these. By the end of the project, citizen science should have gained a more robust place at policy level, and policy makers will have stronger relationships with citizen scientists. Partners who have gained expertise in policy and RRI will act as advisors to other organisations involved in these areas. Innovation hubs As part of sustainable capacity building, all project partners will be established as innovation hubs for local citizen science initiatives. By the end of the project, local groups will be accustomed to working with professionals, have access to the pan- European citizen and DIY science communities and have experience in bottom-up project work. Partners who wish to continue their events will do so under the DITOs brand, although ECSA will have overall responsibility for this and citizens will be directed to ECSA for information on activities in citizen and DIY science. Sustainable support for citizen and DIY science DITOs’ aim is to scale up citizen science and to have moved many participants up the escalator model, thus increasing European (and other) engagement with citizen science. As long as good quality activities continue to run, this interest should be sustainable; this should especially be the case with bottom-up projects, where individuals have built their capacity to run events and begin projects. Project partners will continue to work as innovation hubs and support people who wish to begin citizen science projects of their own, connecting them to ECSA and the DITOs brand as appropriate. 7 Use of Knowledge and the related IPR Management Strategy for Citizen Science Data Management plan DITOS will participate in the programme for open access to research data in Horizon 2020. While personal information will be protected, and therefore many of the detailed information that will be captured during evaluation activities will not be shared beyond the project, we will follow the results of citizen science and DIY science activities and make sure that where possible they are offered under open access. We expect the project to generate the ...

Policy and RRI recommendations. The outcomes of the project were promoted to policy making organisations, the scientific research community and to the general public through a process involving an unusually wide range of online and physical events, presentations, publications, conference papers and sessions, showcases and demonstrations. Partners who gained expertise in policy and XXX acted as advisors to other organisations involved in these areas. We have recently enlisted the help of Zoi Environment Network in producing two short animations (2-4 minutes each) which will be used to disseminate the results from four of the 13 policy briefs (UK Environmental Policy, European Clean Air Day, DIYBio, Guidelines for Citizen Science in Italy) across key influential EU policy social media networks. Xxx combines technical expertise with political insight and creative talent to produce concise analyses presented through multifaceted communication materials. Their diverse team has experience and a long-standing track-record in working with local governments, academia and civil society. Over the years, they have built up unrivalled local networks that guide stakeholder processes and catalyse international cooperation for lasting results that improve people’s lives. The first animation will be targeted at the environmental monitoring, DIYBio and environmental policy communities and will largely draw on the content of the European Clean Air Day policy brief but include some input from the DIYBio brief about the needs of the DIY science community. It will explore the contribution that the DIY community has made in terms of developing low cost sensors for air quality monitoring, the issues with these sensors (e.g. data quality), the contribution of citizen science to European wide air quality monitoring, ending with a call for a European-wide Clean Air Day (like the one in the UK on the 20th of June). We hope to have the animation created in time for the 20th of June so we can capitalise on all the interest there will be around that time citizen science and air quality monitoring. The second animation draws on the content of the UK Environmental Policy brief and the Guidelines for Citizen Science in Italy brief. The animation will focus on the challenges for the integration of citizen science data into environmental policy, address long-standing myths around citizen science data (e.g. issues with data quality), and provide recommendations on how we address these challenges and move forward. We have se...

  • Conclusions and Recommendations The demonstration and evaluation process provided an opportunity to test community specific tools with a range of end users from the memory institution domain and to gain greater insight into both the current and future evolution of the SHAMAN prototypes for preservation, access and re-use. Xxxx et al. (2000) in their user evaluation study of the Alexandria Digital Library which incorporated the evaluation of a Web prototype by earth scientists, information specialists and educators raised four key questions in relation to their findings that SHAMAN may be well advised to consider, they are paraphrased here with our conclusions from the investigations. What have we learned about our target organizations and potential users?  Memory institutions are most definitely not a homogenised group; their needs and requirements differ greatly across the domain.  Representatives of the archives community are agreed on the benefits of SHAMAN‟s authenticity validation function.  The representatives of government information services remained unconvinced as to the need or benefit of grid technologies or distributed ingest while librarians saw the value of grid access as an asset of the framework. What have we learned about the evaluation approach for digital preservation?  Within the limits of the exercise, in terms of time-frame and resources, the approach adopted has generated useful information for the further development of demonstrators and for the development of the SHAMAN framework overall. What have we learned about the SHAMAN ISP1 demonstrator?  Respondents to the evaluation questionnaires and the focus groups indicate that, overall, the presentation of the demonstrator worked effectively and that, in general, participants in the demonstration and evaluation events were able to understand the intentions of the demonstration and to apply the ideas presented to their own context. What have we learned about the applicability of the SHAMAN framework to memory institutions?  Respondents to the questionnaires and participants in the focus groups readily identified the value of the SHAMAN framework to their own operations. The majority had not yet established a long-term digital preservation policy, but recognized the need. Generally, the concepts of distributed ingest and grid operations found favour.  Virtually all practitioners in the focus groups, however, drew attention to need of a lower level demonstration that would be closer to their everyday preservation troubles, especially for digital preservation to be applied to non-textual materials, such as film, photographs and sound archives. In addition to the criteria suggested by Xxxx et al., we can add a further project-related question: What have we learned that has implications for the training and dissemination phase of the Project?  It was not part of the remit of the demonstration and evaluation specifically to discover information of relevance to the training and dissemination function. However, a number of factors will affect the efficacy of any training programme in particular. o First, no common understanding of digital preservation can be assumed of the potential target audiences for training. Consequently, it is likely that self-paced learning materials will be most effective in presenting the SHAMAN framework. o Secondly, the aims of SHAMAN as a project must be conveyed clearly: specifically, that it is a kind of „proof-of-concept‟ project and is not intended to deliver a package of programs capable of being implemented by institutions. o Thirdly, it needs to be emphasised that the SHAMAN framework is not limited to text documents; it can be applied to materials of all kinds. However, the demonstrations relate to bodies of material that were actually available for use. o Fourthly, the existing presentation materials are capable of being adapted for use in training activities. o Finally, the target audiences will appreciate the possibility of online access to the demonstrator, which will need to have very great ease of access in order that people with diverse backgrounds are able to use it with equal facility. We believe that, overall, WP14 has met its aims and objectives in this demonstration and evaluation of ISP1. Valuable lessons have been learnt by all parties involved, which will be transferred to the evaluation of ISP2 in the coming months.
