Call for Contributions launched!

The REvaluation 2021 Conference is jointly organised by Fraunhofer ISI, IFRIS and the Austrian Platform for Research and Technology Policy Evaluation. It will take place as live as possible, 18-19 November 2021 in Vienna, Austria.

This largest conference in Europe dedicated to R&I policy evaluation invites submissions of extended abstracts and outlines for posters or multi-media contributions to share methodological advances in R&I policy evaluation and to debate challenges of assessing the transformative relevance and impact of new R&I policies as well as their implications for evaluation theory and practice.

Contributions can be made to one or more of the four dedicated topical strands:

• Strand #1 concerns all developments that have taken place and on all types of effects of R&I policies.

• Strand #2 puts a spotlight on the effects of the COVID-19 crisis on R&I policy, in particular on awarding practices.

• In Strand #3 we ask how to conceptualise and assess the resilience of R&I systems and their contributions to more resilient economies and societies.

• Strand #4 deals with the nature and the evaluative challenges and practices of transformative oriented R&I policy.

The detailed descriptions of the conference strands can be found here: https://www.revaluation2021.eu/topics/

Submit your extended abstract or outline for a poster or multi-media contribution until May 31, 2021.
