Legitimation of Newness and Its Impact on EU Agenda for Change

Project description

Legitimation of newness for change

The innovative training networks aim to train a new generation of creative, entrepreneurial and innovative early-stage researchers (ESRs) to face current and future challenges and to convert knowledge and ideas into products and services for economic and social benefit. The EU-funded project LNETN aims to address the urgent need for new legitimation perspectives, theories, approaches and methods to learn and know how best to interpret and respond to newness, committing to and ensuring a positive social impact. It is the first European training network that combines newness, to address the need for training a new generation of ESRs with transferable knowledge and skills.

Objective

LNETN responds to MSCA ETN objectives and addresses the urgent need for new legitimation perspectives, theories, approaches and methods to learn and know how best to interpret and respond to newness, committing to and ensuring a positive social impact. It is the first ETN that combines newness, legitimation and theory building to address the need for training of a new generation of ESRs with quadruple-i (inter-disciplinary, inter-sectoral, inter-technology and international) and transferable knowledge, skills and broad vision. LNETN timely sets up a unique, innovative quadruple-i research and training network within social sciences and economics, with applications in science, engineering, technology, health and humanities to provide a high quality quadruple-i research platform for the training of 15 ESRs in legitimation of newness and theory building focusing on interpretation and understanding of complex phenomena in ways which will transform effective decision making and policy implementation and contribute to economic development. The overall objective and main objectives are fulfilled by the following specific research objectives: link the dimensions of sustainability to the discussion of tomorrow’s leadership and organisation, connected to a discussion of qualitative and ethical organization; generalise into a widely applicable theory/policy/practice and provide high quality research data on how new industries and ventures gain legitimation; evaluate innovative structural and operational organisational typologies and identify best practices; create a substantial, path-breaking direction for studying newness in seemingly opposing social and ethical settings. LNETN will be implemented by strong international consortium of 4 universities from Europe, 1 from US, an NGO, 4 innovative, high-technology companies and 3 innovation hubs. LNETN consortium provides for quadruple-i mobility pathways, coupled with development of research-related and transferable competences.
