The DANDELION project was a 24-month project and started in April 2016. The consortium is made up of seven partners from seven different countries: Greece, Portugal, Italy, United Kingdom, Slovakia, Germany and Estonia.

Inclusive, innovative and reflective societies-sensitive Valorisation Concept
20/06/2018

The current document lays out a multi-sectoral/multi-disciplinary valorisation concept for sustainable inclusive, innovative and reflective societies impact generation. It, moreover, makes also a small step further toward the presentation of an actionable SSH-sensitive assessment model of readiness to deliver impact, which we have called Impact Readiness Level (IRL) flow model.

Societal Impact of inclusive, innovative and reflective societies: Criteria and Best Cases
20/06/2018

The present DANDELION report aspires to make a substantial contribution into the direction of elucidating in a more fine-grained way the ‘workings’ around the activities of engaging stakeholders with the aim of diffusing useful, usable, and factually used project results. This should be a necessary, albeit not always sufficient step for research to get valorised and unfold positive impacts in the specific societal contexts of policy making, civil society, and business.
