Addressing complex global challenges requires co-creation among R&I actors and valorisation of knowledge across disciplinary boundaries. The uptake of all types of research results is necessary to create societal and economic benefits. Social sciences, arts, and humanities provide diverse experiences, needs, and perspectives, which should align with natural sciences and technological developments. This holistic approach can lead to innovative solutions that prioritize humans and enhance European competitiveness. Join the workshop co-organised by the European Commission and Universities Denmark to explore ways to accelerate the uptake of non-technological research for people, policy, and the market.
