About us
SISCODE was an EU funded project aimed at stimulating the use of co-creation methodologies in policy design, using bottom-design-driven methodologies to pollinate Responsible Research and Innovation, and Science Technology and Innovation Policies. In order to achieve this goal, the project consortium run a European wide research to understand the dynamics within these co-creation environments as well as the outcomes we can obtain from such approaches. These results were then compared to devise a set of co-creation methodologies suited for scalability and replication. The project used experimentation as a key element to succeed in its objectives. 10 co-creation labs spread around Europe worked with design-driven approaches to co-create, generating real life knowledge. They each selected a challenge to tackle with local stakeholders in order to find solutions together. This gave policymakers the opportunity to test new and more open ways in conceiving policies that reconnects policy design with grassroots initiatives and citizens.
