The PRO-Ethics team successfully held its first virtual cross-learning workshop, moved online due to COVID-19.

On 8^th and 9^th June 2020, PRO-Ethics held the first of three cross-pilot learning workshops, with 25 participants joining in from 12 partner organisations. The workshop was successfully moved to an online format to meet the challenges posed by COVID-19. PRO-Ethics works with research and innovation funding organisations (RFOs) across Europe to test new, ethical ways to involve citizens and (non-traditional) stakeholders in innovation processes. To achieve this goal, 11 pilot cases are implemented in two phases across 8 RFOs, with three cross-learning workshops conducted over the project's 48 months runtime. The overall aim of these workshops is for RFOs to follow, reflect on, learn from, challenge, and inspire each other to advance towards the goals of their respective pilots, with this first iteration focussing specifically on exchanging ethics practices within the four phase I pilots.
