Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI)

Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) is a concept that promotes the ethical and socially-aware development of new technologies and scientific research. It encourages researchers, industries, and policymakers to consider the broader implications of their work on society and the environment. RRI aims to engage various stakeholders—such as the public, businesses, and governments—through open dialogue to ensure that innovations align with societal values and needs. The goal is to create technology and research outcomes that are beneficial, equitable, and sustainable, fostering trust and accountability in the innovation process.
