Project description
A boost for shared research ecosystems
Bringing together eight leading European higher education institutions in the social sciences, humanities, business management and public policy, CIVICA, the European University of Social Sciences, is strengthening the combination of teaching, research and innovation. Its aim is to share knowledge as a public good and to facilitate civic responsibility. In this context, the EU-funded CIVICA RESEARCH project will endow CIVICA with the instruments of an ambitious and innovative research strategy. It will use events, infrastructures and tools to enable each researcher within CIVICA to contribute to joint scientific activities identified as priorities. The project will develop tools to ensure that outside scholars become familiar with CIVICA and that its research infrastructures (such as the online experimental lab) make full use of digital tools.
Objective
CIVICA RESEARCH aims at endowing CIVICA, the European University in Social Sciences, with the instruments of an ambitious and innovative research strategy. CIVICA RESEARCH will explore major institutional transformations to operate a paradigm shift in several key-sectors in a way to: design a strategic research agenda, reinforce human capital and facilitate brain circulation, implement an Open Science culture, create and remove obstacles to shared research ecosystems. CIVICA RESEARCH aims to achieve optimal transnational cooperation among its partners. The keystone of this strategy are the four central issues to be tackled by all our disciplines: Democracy in the XXIst Century; Societies in Transition and Crises of Earth; Europe Revisited; Data Driven Technologies for Social Sciences. The project will use a wide array of events, infrastructures, and tools to enable each researcher within CIVICA to contribute to our collective elicitation of the joint scientific activities developed around these four priorities. We will bring projects up from the grassroots following a multi-pronged approach. 1) Rapid setup of snowball seminars, pilot calls and hackathons will contribute to build-up a common work plan. 2) Innovative mechanisms that facilitate the circulation of scholars and ideas within the Alliance will spur the emergence of a CIVICA scientific community. The project also features tools to ensure that outside scholars become familiar with CIVICA identity. 3) We will develop research infrastructures (e.g online experimental lab), that fully exploit the potential of digital tools for research. 4) We aim at producing influential knowledge that percolates beyond academic circles, thus setting joint high standards in terms of Open Science practices. 5) We devote significant resources towards the dissemination and communication of our research to targeted audiences. A Rapid Policy Response Mechanism aims in particular to enhance our collective outreach to policymakers.
