负责任的创新（RI）旨在使研究和创新能够采取更系统的方法来预测计划的研究/创新产出的潜在风险和后果。预测、反思、参与和行动（AREA）框架为组织和研究人员提供了一个灵活的机制，使研究和创新与社会价值、需求和挑战相结合。然而，它的实际应用对实践者来说可能是具有挑战性的。在本文中，我们描述了AREA框架如何在2019-2021年期间通过专门的每月国际扶轮研讨会嵌入到英国的跨学科研究项目中。为了从这个实践中获得洞察力，我们从整个项目的讨论中收集了定性数据，并对测井实践本身进行了系统的分析。我们讨论了在跨学科研究团队中嵌入RI框架的好处和挑战，并提出了未来在跨学科研究环境中采用AREA框架的建议。
Responsible Innovation (RI) aims to enable research and innovation to take a more systematic approach to anticipating potential risks and consequences of planned research/innovative outputs. The Anticipation, Reflection, Engagement and Action (AREA) framework provides a flexible mechanism for organisations and researchers to align research and innovation with societal values, needs and challenges. However, its actual application may prove challenging for practitioners. In this paper, we describe how the AREA framework has been embedded in an interdisciplinary research project in the UK over the period of 2019–2021 through dedicated monthly RI workshops. To gain insights from this practice, we have collected qualitative data from discussions throughout the project and performed a systematic analysis of the logging practice itself. We discuss benefits and challenges associated with embedding an RI framework within an interdisciplinary research team, and present recommendations for future adoption of the AREA framework in a cross-disciplinary research setting.
