Towards a sustainable and responsible European society.

The University of Lorraine (UL) is organising this workshop to create a platform for European actors involved in SSH to partake in the repositioning, and in proactively suggesting a shared vision for the future. For this, we work on bringing together stakeholders from the European institutions, from research and innovation, and from higher education.

Context:
The European political landscape is changing, and research is reclaiming its position in it. With current discussion topics revolving around competitiveness, valorisation, resilience, sovereignty, and societal change, research in the social sciences and humanities (SSH) repositions itself as well.
The European research framework programs 8 and 9 (Horizon 2020 and Horizon Europe) have created an initial platform for a strategic integration of SSH research, and this event aims at demonstrating why this development was essential and must be continued in the upcoming framework program. SSH research is not only an auxiliary tool in interdisciplinary research, but ultimately shapes our European society, helps defining its values, and creates a basis for all the intersections between research, innovation, society, politics, and industry.
