Description
The international workshop "Participatory Priority-Setting for Research and Innovation Policy - Concepts, Tools and Implementation in Foresight Processes" took place in Berlin on the 13th and 14th of December, 2002, in the context of Futur - The German Research Dialogue, a foresight process initiated by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). It was organised by The Institute for Organisational Communication (IFOK, Bensheim/Berlin) and the Fraunhofer Institute for Systems and Innovation Research (ISI, Karlsruhe).
The workshop had two different objectives: firstly, to introduce the German Research Dialogue Futur to an international audience and secondly, to organise an exchange of internationally well-known foresight experts about experiences in specific foresight matters, to compare different and best practices, pros and cons, good and bad experiences on a more detailed level, according to three problems every foresight organiser or manager faces:
1. rules for participation of different actor groups,
2. priority-setting,
3. implementation of foresight priorities.
This reader contains the contributions of the international workshop.
