CONSIDER at the Living Knowledge Conference, Copenhagen 2014
Eleanor Morgan
On 10 April 2014, CONSIDER held a workshop as part of the sixth Living Knowledge Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark, to test with engaged stakeholders an initial draft of intuitions and ideas relating to CSO involvement in research projects. The Living Knowledge Conference is a renowned event that brings together civil society organisations (CSOs), academics, policy makers and industry representatives to discuss cross-sector collaborative research. This edition, entitled ‘An Innovative Civil Society: Impact through Co-creation and Participation’, sought to highlight civil society’s role as a producer of knowledge. The discussions focussed on having CSOs accepted as partners in research and innovation that is directed towards public interest and have their activities recognised as research and innovation.
The CONSIDER project equally recognises that, as an innovative and knowledgeable stakeholder, civil society’s participation in research is fundamental to tackling societal issues. The project will develop a model of effective CSO participation that will allow for the development of guidelines and recommendations for policy makers, researchers, CSOs, funders and other stakeholders. CONSIDER is keen to involve all parties in the process to understand their needs, ideas and views. Therefore, we collaborated with the Living Knowledge Conference to hold this workshop in which we presented our initial intuitions and ideas to test whether stakeholders believe them to be on course for the desired output of comprehensive, relevant and practical guidelines and recommendations.
