On February 22 and 23, the RECIPES project will organize the European Policy Workshop: “Precaution for responsible innovation”.
Analysis of the case studies
To fully understand the complexities and the controversies around the application of the precautionary principle, the RECIPES project conducted nine case studies. The aim was to understand and explain the potential differences in the application depending on the topic and the context. A comparison across the different cases indicates that the application of the precautionary principle had positive effects on innovation and contributed to more responsible pathways.
