Science, policy and practice interfaces for enabling innovation & sustainability
In this workshop, we will cover the principles of transformative innovation policy, as well as how the use of new tools (Policy co-creation, X-Curve, Value Network Mapping, transformative theory of change) can contribute to closing the gap between science-policy-society in transformative innovation policy.
This workshop is organised in collaboration with the Austrian Institute of Technology.

During this webinar, we will learn when, how and why to use a Transformative Theory of Change by looking at real-life cases from EIT Climate-KIC’s projects SATURN, ACT on NBS and SuSMo.
This workshop is organised in collaboration with MOTION, a project led by the Transformative Innovation Policy Consortium (TIPC)

In the CICERONE project, we developed a capacity-building agenda as part of a collaborative framework by using triangulation of different methods, including input from programme officers and a series of sensemaking sessions organised to discuss different aspects of the agenda and align them with the MOOC, the Policy Toolkit and the Roadmap respectively. This strategic framework follows an improvement pathway logic where gaps and opportunities are addressed through a combined multi-level capacity development and instructional design model that allows for a tailored and contextualised approach to deliver actionable knowledge and ensure the best possible match between programme owner needs and available resources.

An Actionable Atlas
This handbook introduces actionable knowledge on developing A Transformative Theory of Change by applying a portfolio approach to address a systems innovation perspective for projects and programmes. Tools, methods and lessons learned result from working hand in hand with EIT Climate-KIC projects around a portfolio of knowledge services for sustainable systems transformation. The step-by-step methodology aims to support practitioners in designing, implementing, and evaluating projects aimed at transformative system change by combining the Theory of Change methodology with the Multi-Level Perspective (MLP). It can be used to facilitate a co-creation process among societal stakeholders invested in sustainability, connecting innovation with societal challenges through the effective delivery of knowledge service.
The handbook has been developed through the collaboration between the Transformative Innovation Policy Consortium, INGENIO-UPV, the Austrian Institute of Technology and EIT Climate-KIC as part of the MOTION EIT Climate-KIC project.

In this European Fireside Talk founder of TIPC and its Academic Director, Professor Johan Schot and I have discussed the nature of co-creation in policy projects. We ponder how policymakers and researchers negotiate meaning – what are the skills needed, what’s the best approach? And is it really like the Tango?!
I have joined h Prof. Dominique Foray to explore the potential of systemic portfolios of projects for fostering transformative change in southern and central eastern European countries. By doing so, we combine concepts such as smart specialization, system innovation, regional development and mapping techniques to brings some insights on how practitioners can move forward to design and implement transformative territorial policy.
The webinar will cover methodological elements and practical applications of knowledge management as part of actions supporting policymakers in system mapping and policy co-design processes. In doing so, this webinar seeks to highlight applications and synergies with monitoring, evaluation and learning activities. The webinar will illustrate the broad context of policy mix and EU Framework, the case of Transitions Hub as a policy lab managing knowledge management processes as well as related examples on system mapping and policy co-design processes. This material is based in the Handbook Challenge-led system mapping, a knowledge management approach.
