S2BMRC team participated in the hybrid conference "Triple Helix" hosted by the La Salle - Ramon Llull University (Barcelona, Spain) to present the project "CoCreAid Kit 4.0".
Research associate Katrin Uude and graduate assistant Marie Schirrmacher presented the results. In their presentation entitled "Unlocking the potential of digital co-creation between HEIs, NGOs, and citizens", they explored current success factors, and barriers, as well as requirements for digital co-creation platforms and skills to digital co-creation.
About the project "CoCreAid Kit 4.0"
European Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) are increasingly engaged in society and therefore play a growing role in regional and social development. As a result of the increasing international cooperation, successful collaboration in the digital sphere is becoming more and more critical. However, to date, the collaboration between HEI and NGOs in the digital sphere has been somewhat neglected, leading to a lack of insight about how to co-create successfully in a digital context.
The CoCreAid Kit 4.0 focuses on overcoming barriers to cooperation arising when HEIs and NGOs co-create digitally. The aim is to increase social impact in participating European countries and beyond. Furthermore, digital competencies will be strengthened among the project partners through practical application.
Recently, all insights gained in Milestone 1 have been consolidated into a graphical user interface that serves as an all-in-one user platform for digital co-creation by integrating a knowledge base, existing platforms, and methods. It can be accessed here.
