            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;On January 18th 2022, the precautionary principle in chemicals regulation was discussed in an online seminar with academics and stakeholders.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The seminar was organised by University of Bergen's &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.uib.no/en/svt/139005/beecaution-bees-pesticides-and-precaution-building-epistemic-network-norway"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;BeeCaution project&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;, which is a spin-off project of the H2020 RECIPES project. BeeCaution aims to build a Norwegian network of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.uib.no/en/acknowledges"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;actionable knowledge&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; for precaution by engaging a Nordic audience in RECIPES' discussions on precaution and innovation.&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;The seminar gathered &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;47 participants with different backgrounds, including students, toxicologists, NGOs, legal scholars, and representatives from public scientific committees. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;In the first half of the seminar, a presentation&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; on the precautionary principle in the European chemicals regulation (REACH)’ &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;was given by &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.aces.su.se/staff/christina-ruden/"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Christina Rudén&lt;/strong&gt;,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; professor of toxicology and regulatory ecotoxicology at the University of Stockholm. Rudén criticised the lack of precaution in chemical regulations in the EU. She talked about what she termed the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;“Seven Sins” of the EU's chemical regulation, including: that most chemicals are insufficiently tested, that mixed exposures of chemicals are ignored, that there is a structural conflict of interest and lack of transparency in regulatory risk assessment of chemicals, and that the PP is very rarely used explicitly. Rudén also mentioned some possible improvements in the newly proposed &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;a href="https://ec.europa.eu/environment/strategy/chemicals-strategy_en"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span lang="SV" xml:lang="SV" xml:lang="SV"&gt;&lt;span&gt;Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="SV" xml:lang="SV" xml:lang="SV"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; as&lt;strong&gt; &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="SV" xml:lang="SV" xml:lang="SV"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;a step in the right direction. This strategy indicates better management of endocrine disruptors and mixture risk and improved transparency. However it remains to be implemented, cross-cutting legislation is still missing, and the structural problems of conflict of interest remain unaddressed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Prof. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.mn.uio.no/ibv/english/people/aca/ketilhy/index.html"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Ketil Hylland&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;, toxicologist at the University of Oslo, was invited to comment on&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Rudén’s presentation. Hylland agreed on the need of a precautionary approach. He mentioned uncertainty around prenatal exposure to low doses of chemicals as an example. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;He further suggested that instead of focusing on calculating natures tolerance levels of chemicals in risk assessments, the main focus should start from the question whether the chemical is really needed (essential use). Regarding the PP, he found it strange that when looking up the PP in the EU, most of the focus is on the limitations of the principle. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;After a short break, the seminar was open to comments from the audience. Topics discussed include:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;The problem of ‘paralysis by analysis’&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;A better testing regime is needed, that is more science-based instead of volume based&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;The problems of regulatory silos&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;What counts as ‘essential use’ of chemicals should be discussed more&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;More interdisciplinary collaboration is needed, especially legal scholars and social scientists need to engage more in debates and research related to regulation of chemicals&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;The problematics of setting specific thresholds, and that the PP is applied retrospectively&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;There is a window of opportunity to engage with the implementation of the new chemical strategy &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Other relevant cases mentioned: Norway’s GMO legislation and the EUs prolonged process of updating the so called "Bee Guidance" for pesticide assessments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;A video of Rudén’s presentation will be made available at the webpage of UiB's &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB" xml:lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.uib.no/en/svt/139005/beecaution-bees-pesticides-and-precaution-building-epistemic-network-norway"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;BeeCaution project&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt; soon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;On the 18 and 19 November 2021, the German non-governmental organization &lt;a href="https://www.nabu.de/wir-ueber-uns/veranstaltungen/30550.html"&gt;NABU&lt;/a&gt; organized the online conference &lt;strong&gt;“Vorsorge und Innovation - Fit for Future?”&lt;/strong&gt;. The meeting was set up to discuss the relationship between innovation and the precaution principle. For two days, the conference gathered experts including academics, government officials, and industry actors. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;On Thursday 18 November, after an opening by &lt;strong&gt;Michal Schäfer&lt;/strong&gt; (NABU representative) and &lt;strong&gt;Dr. Carsten Neßhöver&lt;/strong&gt; (representative of the German Environment Agency), Prof Andrew Stirling presented and discussed the current challenges for the governance of technological innovation. &lt;strong&gt;Dr Heidi Stockhaus&lt;/strong&gt; the presented the results of the &lt;strong&gt;RECIPES project regarding the effect of the precautionary principle&lt;/strong&gt;. She explored the legal status and current implementation of both principles in different legal orders. The presentation was followed by a comment by &lt;strong&gt;Ulrich Petschow&lt;/strong&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;On Friday 19 November, the conference continued, and &lt;strong&gt;Prof Sebastian Pfotenhauer&lt;/strong&gt; discussed the role of the precaution principle in risk governance and innovation governance, for a responsible and sustainable innovation process. &lt;strong&gt;Dr Pia-Johanna Schweizer&lt;/strong&gt; then presented the &lt;strong&gt;methodology and &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;preliminary results of the RECIPES project&lt;/strong&gt;, focusing on the co-creative approach. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;The event ended with a &lt;strong&gt;round table discussion&lt;/strong&gt; on precaution and its role for future innovation challenges, as well as its possible adaptations. &lt;strong&gt;Prof Christian Calliess&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Prof Katharina Hölzle&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Max Müller&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;Prof Martina Schraudner&lt;/strong&gt; discussed different point of views and possibilities – considering the various stakes and challenges of innovation and precaution and suggesting conciliation possibilities.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  RECIPES Stakeholder Workshop
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;In June 2020, a diverse group of stakeholders met online to discuss the challenges of the precautionary principle and share their visions for the future of the precautionary principle, taking into consideration research and innovation.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Like the rest of the world, the RECIPES project has had to translate their activities into a reality affected by a pandemic. A planned face-to-face stakeholder workshop in Brussels was therefore replaced by a series of nine online meetings, which took place on 09 -12 and 15 - 16 June. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;The objective of the workshops was to discuss and identify what the current implementation of the precautionary principle is lacking, but also share visions for a future that takes into consideration research and innovation. The stakeholders who took part from across Europe brought their deep knowledge on the precautionary principle and innovation, acquired either through academic research, policy work, working in civil society organisations or in relevant industries. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;Despite the limits of meeting online, the stakeholders eagerly discussed the topic at hand, which led to many unique and important insights that will be valuable for the RECIPES project going forward. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US" xml:lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span&gt;The final workshop is planned to take place in September in Brussels. There, stakeholders will pinpoint barriers for their vision and what tools and guidelines could help ease decision making for lawmakers, and propose mechanisms for public involvement in decisions on research and innovation. Based on the stakeholder discussions, we will go forward to the next and final phase of the workshop and work on topics such as comprehensive and foresight decision-making, transparency, participation, and consistency. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  UiB received supplementary funding for building an epistemic network in Norway on bees, pesticides and precaution
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;On 17 December 2019, the UiB partner received additional funding from the Norwegian Research Council.&lt;br /&gt;
The funding is intended for Norwegian Participants in Horizon 2020 Projects. The purpose of the funding is to increase the impact of Horizon 2020 projects on research, society, and trade and industry in Norway. The UiB team received funding under this call for the project BeeCaution.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The background for the proposal was that the preliminary RECIPES project results showed that the Precautionary Principle is mentioned in many Norwegian legal acts and policy documents, but its use and application are still under-developed. This implies that there is an urgent need for state of the art knowledge on the recent international developments and discourses about the precautionary principle and its relation to innovation and RRI (Responsible Research and Innovation) in Norway.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The funding will be used to establish a network of Norwegian NGOs, interest groups, lawmakers, politicians, science advisers and academics and gather them for co-creation workshops that will both serve as a soundboard and source of knowledge and inspiration, and will be an arena to disseminate, reality-check and quality control RECIPES results. We will focus on the RECIPES case study on neonicotinoid pesticides. The co-creation workshops will give a wide range of relevant Norwegian actors access to state of art knowledge developed in our H2020 project through two-way engagement and dissemination at workshops and by translating the RECIPES Policy Briefs and key documents into Norwegian.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part of the extra funding will be used to extend the RECIPES media analysis on the precautionary principle with Norwegian newspapers, increasing the relevance of the RECIPES project in Norway.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;All in all, the supplementary funding will increase the impact, relevance, and applicability of the RECIPES results in Norway both when it comes to policy advice, further research, society, public understanding of the bees and pesticides controversy, and stakeholders in trade and industry.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;One of the RECIPES project’s aims is to understand and explain the differences in the application of the precautionary principle in 9 different case topics, in a way that reflects the particular context of the case and the arguments for invoking the precautionary principle.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In &lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/results/recipes-case-studies-aligning-precaution-and-innovation"&gt;this video&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Joe Rini, Research Associate at the IASS Potsdam&lt;/strong&gt; and coordinator of the nine case studies, explains how the principle is applied in different contexts and thematic areas.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/sites/default/files/2020-01/Conceptual_Framework_for_comparative_multiple_case_study_analysis.pdf"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conceptual framework for comparative multiple case study analysis&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;, part of the “Multiple case-study analysis” module, focuses on how the case study component fits into the overall RECIPES project, on the results of a literature review, on the case study methodology, and on the key risk properties of complexity, uncertainty, and ambiguity. Together with the case study methodology&lt;strong&gt;, &lt;/strong&gt;this report lays the foundation for carrying out the case study research, as well as the comparative analysis of the 9 case studies and transitioning these findings into the rest of the RECIPES project.&lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The goal of the “Multiple case-study analysis” is to perform 9 case studies and a comparison of the different cases in order to develop scenarios on the future application of the precautionary principle. This will feed into the design of new tools and guidelines for the precautionary principle in respect of reconciling precaution and innovation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Each case study topic consists of &lt;strong&gt;different technological risks&lt;/strong&gt;, at different stages of development and deployment, and with completely different legal frameworks. As a result, the project team developed a flexible methodological framework that allows the research teams to learn as much as possible about the case topic using the appropriate and relevant sources. The comparative case analysis employs a number of strategies including pair-wise peer review, iterating the analysis against case study researchers, and remaining open to the best way to compare and contrast the cases.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In this project phase, researchers seek to link the precautionary principle and innovation considerations to the key risk properties of &lt;strong&gt;complexity, uncertainty, and ambiguity&lt;/strong&gt;, which represent challenges for the understanding and the ability to communicate effectively about risk and innovation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Complexity&lt;/strong&gt; refers to the difficulty of identifying and quantifying causal links between a multitude of potential candidates and specific adverse effects. It includes the interplay of human agency within the context of regulation, innovation, legal decision-making, changing societal values, and vested interests, which result in higher-level complexity than the technological system alone.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Uncertainty &lt;/strong&gt;is the key risk property in invoking the Precautionary Principle, as its purpose is to allow decision-makers to act despite scientific uncertainty (lack of knowledge about the outcomes or likelihoods, or both, of an event or process). In contrast, risk describes situations where possible outcomes are known, and the likelihoods of those outcomes can be described. Given the subjective complexity faced by decision-makers in the case study topics, the project highlights the functional uncertainty that emerges from highly complex technologies and societal processes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ambiguity&lt;/strong&gt; refers to the fact that outcomes are potentially uncertain, and that different groups will value these outcomes differently. It is present in how scientists and risk specialists evaluate the same evidence, and in how outcomes as risks are evaluated. It implies the need to engage societal stakeholders in the discussion about the harms and benefits of technological innovations and other risks.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Part of this report also concentrates on innovation, as a crucial element for human and societal improvement, which must be regulated to prevent harm, thus leading to a complex interplay between regulation and innovation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/sites/default/files/2020-02/Methodological_Framework_for_the_case_study_analysis.pdf"&gt;Methodological framework for the case study analysis&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; details the methodological framework for carrying out the case study research foreseen by the RECIPES project. The document serves both as a methodological framework – an explanation of what to consider in each section – and as a template for delivering the final analysis at the end of the case study research.&lt;/p&gt;

            &lt;div class="field field--name-field-subtitle field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;Presentation of the RECIPES project &lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;On November 25, 2019, the Rathenau Institute welcomed the Norwegian Health Directorate and about 25 of their experts to The Hague. This meeting was set up to exchange ideas about cutting edge developments, ethical aspects and policymaking in the area of medical technology, biotechnology and digitalization of health care.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The Norwegian delegation consisted of members of the Health directorate and a group of expert advisors, with a background in medicine, genetics, ethics and law. The meeting proved to be an excellent opportunity for gaining further insight into stakeholder views on the precautionary principle.  &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Tijs Sikma and Rosanne Edelenbosch presented the RECIPES project, for which the Rathenau Institute is conducting two case studies. Tijs gave the Norwegians a general outline of the project and presented the conceptual core of the precautionary principle developed during work package 1 of. He also presented the results of the successful dialogue meeting with Dutch citizens on the precautionary principle. Rosanne discussed the Rathenau case on new gene-editing techniques. &lt;span&gt;CRISPR-based gene drives&lt;/span&gt; has been hailed as a ‘gene editing revolution’, making genetic modification more specific, easy to use and broadly accessible.  The question is if these new technologies are in fact actually different from the old, or whether it is just the societal and political debate that has changed. By zooming in on different applications of CRISPR for human health, Rathenau will research how CRISPR is associated with risks that are uncertain, complex and ambiguous.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Caution was thrown to the wind by the Norwegians when they offered the speakers a ‘Norwegian’ gift, the cheese slicer. This demonstrates how Europeans can have varying cultural appreciations of technology, as any Dutchman will tell you they themselves invented this handy tool.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

            &lt;div class="field field--name-field-subtitle field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;Phil Macnaghten sharing ideas about “Responsible research and innovation”&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;On 12 April 2019, Phil Macnaghten, Professor of Technology and International Development at the Wagening University, shared his ideas on responsible research and innovation with members of the German Society of Scientific Research.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This year’s annual meeting of the German Society of Scientific Research saw several presentations on responsibility of research. They focused on two questions: What can science contribute to society? What is the responsibility of science?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In his presentation “Responsible research and innovation: From science in society to science for society, with society”, Philip Macnaghten gave a brief historical overview of the concept and identified three features that are emerging from the discourse: (1) Identification of targets for innovation in an ethical, inclusive, democratic and equitable manner; (2) Integration and institutionalisation of established mechanisms of reflection, anticipation, and inclusive deliberation in and around the process of research and innovation; and (3) Conveyance of new responsibilities emerging from a model of co-creation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;During the discussion facilitated by Harald Mieg, member of the RECIPES project, the role of the precautionary principle, as well as the role of international standards, were discussed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
      
  &lt;div class="field field--name-field-organiser field--type-string field--label-above"&gt;

  RECIPES Citizen meeting in Bergen (Norway)
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;On May 28, 2019, a citizen meeting was held in Bergen (Norway), where 26 people of different ages and professions met to discuss precaution and innovation in relation to (new) technologies.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;On the day, a group of 26 people with different demographics met in Bergen to discuss precaution and innovation. The purpose of the meeting was to provide some insights into citizen perceptions of precaution and innovation. Similar citizen meetings were held in Italy, Bulgaria, Netherlands, and Denmark.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Before the meeting, a short informational material was developed by the RECIPES consortium and sent to the participants. The information material provided information on the Precautionary Principle (PP) and innovation, as well as the dilemmas and controversies connected to three selected cases: GMO, Nanotechnology, and pesticides.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In the meeting, the RECIPES project was first presented shortly, including a brief introduction to three of the RECIPES cases. Thereafter, participants filled out a survey on precaution and innovation in the areas of GMOs, nanotechnology, and pesticides, followed by group discussions of 10 of the questions in the survey.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The discussions were lively as participants included both those fascinated by new technologies and those who were more concerned about emerging risks. Generally, there seemed to be a agreement that PP and innovation should be balanced. However, regarding the question of prioritizing between the two, most of the participants tended towards a more precautionary approach.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Of the three cases, participants expressed more concerns about pesticides than about GMOs and nanotechnologies. Some controversies on GMOs emerged in the discussions. While many participants expressed worries about the developments of these technologies, some also highlighted the possibilities of these technologies and that the regulations in some cases may be too strict, holding back innovation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Lastly, some controversies emerged around the questions on the possibilities of controlling technology. Participants disagreed about the possibilities to steer or regulate the development of technologies at an international level but mainly agreed that there are possibilities to direct innovations towards more sustainable directions on a national scale.  &lt;/p&gt;

  Citizens meeting in The Hague
&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="field field--name-field-subtitle field--type-string field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;New technology: A conversation about precaution, safety and responsibility&lt;/div&gt;
      
            &lt;div class="clearfix text-formatted field field--name-body field--type-text-with-summary field--label-hidden field__item"&gt;&lt;p&gt;On June 19, the Rathenau Institute organised a discussion meeting about how the government should deal with uncertain risks to public health and the environment in relation to new technologies. 40 people of different ages, professions and backgrounds came together in The Hague to exchange ideas. The meeting led to lively discussions about questions such as: how important is it as a society to be careful with new technologies? Can you be too careful? And who should be held responsible?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The discussion meeting took place in the context of RECIPES, a project within the European Horizon2020 Programme. Organisations from seven European countries are involved in this project. In May and June, research institutes in &lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/events/recipes-citizen-meeting-sofia"&gt;Bulgaria&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/events/recipes-citizen-meeting-bergen-norway"&gt;Norway&lt;/a&gt;, &lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/events/citizens-meeting-latium-region-italy"&gt;Italy&lt;/a&gt;, and &lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/events/european-citizens-precautionary-principle-and-innovation-transparency-risk-assessment-and"&gt;Denmark&lt;/a&gt;,  organised a&lt;a href="https://recipes-project.eu/events/european-citizens-precautionary-principle-and-innovation-transparency-risk-assessment-and"&gt; similar meeting&lt;/a&gt; around the same questions.  The outcomes of these discussions are used to take into account the opinions, presuppositions and interests of society for advising the European Commission.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Working on safety of new technology&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The RECIPES project started in January 2019 and will last three years. An important goal of the project is to investigate whether adjustments are needed in the European policy for testing and guaranteeing the safety of new technologies. The RECIPES partners work together with various stakeholders on tools for appropriate policy, in the form of, for example, guidelines that can help with the responsible embedding of innovations in society.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Risks and innovation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Innovation plays an important role in bringing new products to the market that can be attractive or even of vital importance to society. Examples are clothing that is water-repellent thanks to nanotechnology, genetically modified food crops that are more resistant to drought or new pesticides that can protect crops against insects. While these innovations can provide solutions to societal challenges, they often are surrounded by risks to human and environmental safety. For example, nanoparticles can cause problems for the respiratory tract and genetically modified crops may disrupt existing ecosystems, while some pesticides increase the risk of massive bee extinction. These three cases formed the starting point for the conversations on 19 June.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Why this citizens meeting?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It is important to include the views of stakeholders on innovation and precaution during the project. Not only the perspectives of researchers, companies, farmers and regulators, but also the views of users and stakeholders who often experience the advantages and disadvantages of new technology to an unequal extent. How should we deal with the tension between innovation and ensuring safety for people and the environment according to them?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;During the meeting in The Hague, people discussed in small groups questions such as: &lt;strong&gt;how important is precaution towards innovation with new technologies?&lt;/strong&gt; Can you also be too careful? &lt;strong&gt;Who is responsible for&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;demonstrating that a technology is safe&lt;/strong&gt;: the companies that develop it or the government? And how can we take into account all the interests of parties that do not have a direct representative, such as the environment or future generations? These issues sparked lively discussions among the participants. Prior to the discussion, participants completed a questionnaire in order to form an opinion about the topics of the discussions. The results from these questionnaires could consequently be compared with insights that emerged during the discussions.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Follow-up research into precaution and safety with new technology&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The results from the meeting are bundled with those of the other four countries in a joint publication. In the coming year, the Rathenau Institute will also be working on two other cases in which precaution plays a role: genetic modification of organisms and artificial intelligence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
