Nanotechnology Mutual Learning Action Plan For Transparent And Responsible Understanding Of Science And Technology (NANO2ALL)

Start date: Oct 1, 2015, End date: Mar 31, 2019,

Innovative solutions to society’s challenges need to be developed with the involvement of all stakeholders through a dynamic, iterative, mutually responsible process. To achieve this, greater understanding of required stakeholder interactions as well as their needs and concerns is required. Societal engagement in nanotechnology has been tackled previously. However, prior learning needs to be broug ...

Nanotechnology Education for Industry and Society (NANOEIS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2015,

Nanotechnology is an emerging area with strong implications for European society and industry. It is a challenge for the education system to integrate this interdisciplinary and transsectoral subject into curricula shaped mostly along classical disciplines. NanoEIS will evaluate how nanotechnology education has been integrated into secondary schools and universities, how cooperations between diffe ...

Ethics of emerging Technologies (ETHICSCHOOL)

Start date: Sep 1, 2007, End date: Feb 28, 2009,

Ethics of science and technology is a hot item on the agenda of research policy makers especially in Europe and North America. In particular, the responsible development of emerging generic areas of research such as nanotechnology and converging technologies are a matter of concern for policy makers as well as leading research bodies. Young researchers must be trained in ethics of science. This pr ...
