2.3.1.12 Subproject 12: Ethics and Society SP12 (Ethics and Society) is the hub of responsible research and innovation (RRI) in the HBP. It undertakes foresight research on social, ethical, legal and cultural implications of HBP research, explores conceptual and philosophical issues and challenges raised by HBP research, builds awareness and capacity for social and ethical reflection among HBP researchers, engages HBP researchers with external stakeholders and the general public, and supports the robust management of ethical issues of the HBP as a whole. SP12 will collect and develop good practice in RRI. Its approach overall has four interlinked components: anticipation (of future implications, based on research); reflection (activities to enhance ethical and social awareness and reflection among HBP researchers; engagement (engaging, disseminating and debating HBP research with stakeholders and the general public); action (ensuring the results of these activities help shape the direction of the HBP itself in ethically robust ways that serve the public interest).
