as part of a H2020 project 'SCALINGS'
Description of the overall SCALINGS project
The offered positions are part of the Horizon 2020 Science with and for
Society project "SCALINGS - Scaling up Co-creation: Avenues and Limits for
Integrating Society in Science and Innovation". This is a joint program of the
Philosophy and Ethics group at TU/e, together with 8 other universities across
Europe as Technical University Munich, Technical University Denmark, Mines
Paris Tech, ESADE Spain and University College London.
Co-creation practice - and co-creation research - are at a crossroads: More
than ever, initiatives to boost innovation through collaboration among diverse
actors are flourishing across Europe. Yet, this mainstreaming poses new
challenges to better understand "co-creation processes and outcomes under
various cultural, societal and regulatory backgrounds to allow better-targeted
policy support" (SwafS-13-17). To date, no systematic studies exist that
detail how co-creation instruments operate under different socio-cultural
conditions, i.e. if "best practices" will be effective elsewhere or if the
resulting products and services are compatible with new markets.
SCALINGS addresses the challenge of mainstreaming co-creation across a diverse
Europe head-on: In the first ever rigorous comparative study, we will
investigate the implementation, uptake, and outcomes of three co-creation
instruments (public procurement of innovation, co-creation facilities, and
living labs) in two technical domains (robotics and urban energy) across 10
countries. Using comparative case studies and coordinated cross-country
experiments, we explore if and how these instruments can be generalized,
transferred, or scaled up to new socio-cultural, economic, or institutional
conditions to unleash their innovative power.
Based on this unique data set, we will develop two new transformative
frameworks - "situated co-creation" and "socially robust scaling" - to guide
the wider dissemination of co-creation. We will synthesize our findings into
an "EU Policy Roadmap" to support ongoing EU innovation policy efforts.
Empirically, SCALINGS is closely integrated with over two dozen European
co-creation initiatives that deal with cross-cultural transferability on a
daily basis. Together with these partners, we will co-create enhanced
practices that feed directly back into their work and strategy. Finally, we
will launch a training program (boot camp) on co-creation in diverse settings
for other EU consortia.
A more detailed description of the TU/e's part in the research program is
available upon request.
Further specifications of the three projects can be found via the links
