RRI Tools: Main Goals and OutcomesDelivering a pan-European Programme of

Training & Advocacy

Melanie SmallmanUCL

• Develop and deliver a training and advocacy programme, based on the RRI Toolkit that will encourage use and dissemination of the RRI Toolkit within the maximum EU member states and associated countries

• Format of the training will avoid the traditional 'teacher in front with listening audience’ and try to work with case studies in an interactive way, allowing the participants to find a solution on their own.

• The role of the trainer will be to guide the participants through the process and not to deliver ready-to-use solutions.
