How to achieve real integration of social sciences and humanities into transdisciplinary research for a competitive, green and fair Europe?

How to achieve real integration of social sciences and humanities into transdisciplinary research for a competitive, green and fair Europe?

The EU’s Framework Programme (FP) for Research and Innovation is a political instrument to achieve specific EU goals, in particular the Green Deal. The integration of social sciences and humanities (SSH) in transdisciplinary research is a necessity to reach these goals, which has been emphasized in previous FPs. However, further integration of SSH is considered a priority and the seminar will address this issue.
 
The seminar will focus on best practices and tools to reach a higher level of integration of SSH, in particular for climate- and health-specific issues:

  •  How can the EU’s Framework Programme for Research and Innovation address that true integration of SSH into transdisciplinary research may require dedicated resources?
  • How can work programme calls be outlined to be attractive to include SSH researchers?
  • How can the evaluation criteria and process for different instruments be developed to further support the inclusion of SSH in funded projects?

The Panel will be led by the Stockholm Trio for Sustainable Action addressing complex sustainability challenges through the use of transdisciplinary approaches in collaboration with key stakeholders.
