Survey: How do researchers and practitioners deal with challenges in participatory research for technology development?
Do you have experience in participatory research? This short survey is for you! Aline Duelen (imec-SMIT, VUB) researches participatory research practices within technological development, focusing on common challenges and strategies for involving vulnerable citizens.
The survey takes approximately 15 minutes to complete and is open to both academic and non-academic professionals with experience in participatory research. The questionnaire is available in Dutch and English, and all responses will be collected anonymously.

Horizon Europe funding
Horizon Europe is the EU research and innovation program for the 2021-2027 period. It focuses on 5 main missions.
Citizen science calls can be found in the Funding and Tenders portal.
Furthermore, Citizen Science may also be used as a research method in other calls under the European funding programs.
General
