The conference addresses new actor settings, approaches and themes in RTI policy evaluation. Thus, the term OPEN EVALUATION signals openness towards new values, new stakeholders and beneficiaries as well as new approaches and themes in RTI policies and RTI evaluations.
The conference focuses on the following thematic priorities:
- Changing the role of evaluation of RTI policy to incorporate new values, RRI and new forms of science
- New evaluation approaches in data, methods, indicators and their interpretation
- RTI policy evaluation in the policy-making process
- Social innovation, societal impact, societal challenges
