Call for Papers Responsible Innovation: A European Agenda? 24 – 25 August 2015 – The Hague Extended Deadline: May 18, 17:00 We invite you to submit abstracts for the Fourth International Conference on Responsible Innovation organized by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). NWO has launched an interdisciplinary research program that brings together researchers from ethics, applied science and the social and behavioral sciences in research projects that consider the ethical and social aspects of new technology from the design phase onwards. Research in the field of Responsible Innovation is typically geared towards solutions to the grand and societal challenges as they figure in the Millennium Goals and the EU Horizon2020 program. Contributions are expected to clarify how the research and innovation processes are organized in such a way that the outcomes can be deemed ‘responsible’ and as oriented towards such solutions. Contributions should offer guidance in thinking about the moral justification of technical, economic or institutional aspects of innovations. We encourage submissions from an interdisciplinary spectrum, including but not limited to philosophy, engineering, applied science, social science, economics and those involved in public or private sector policymaking. You may submit abstracts for a paper or a poster session using the conference website www.responsible-innovation.nl. To offer a paper or poster for one of the sessions, please submit an extended abstract (circa 1,000 words) (your abstract should indicate whether you intend to present a paper or a poster). A selection of papers will be published in the fourth volume of the Conference Series (Springer). This years conference also hosts a “responsible innovation exhibition”. Research teams have the possibility to present societally responsible innovations to an audience of entrepreneurs and policy makers. Further information on participation will follow coming Spring. KEYNOTES The following academics have confirmed their attendance as keynote speaker at this conference A third keynote speaker will be invited from industry. DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSION: 5pm on Monday, 18 May (Amsterdam time).
