Organised by Corvinus University of Budapest, the two-session online capacity-building programme is primarily aimed at colleagues working in research support and research management. It brings together four areas that are becoming increasingly important in contemporary research projects: Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI), research ethics, public and stakeholder engagement, and citizen science.

Participants will explore not only the foundations of RRI, but also practical research ethics dilemmas, approaches to stakeholder engagement, and when and how citizen science can add value to research projects and proposals.

Dates and times:

15 October 2026, 10:00—13:30 Fundamentals of RRI and Research Ethics
16 October 2026, 10:00—12:30 Public Engagement and Citizen Science

The sessions will be delivered by Réka Matolay, Gábor Kovács and Erika Kurucz. The programme is designed to be interactive and practice-oriented, combining short inputs with case discussions, group work and reflection.
