Impact Assessment Report
The project Citizen and Multi-Actor Consultation on Horizon 2020 (CIMULACT) aimed at improving the engagement of citizens in the process of formulation of the research agenda in Europe by providing inputs to the Horizon 2020 Work Programme 2018–2020 and consequently to the preparation of the Framework Programme 9. The CIMULACT project adopted co-creation and multi-actor procedures involving citizens and experts from 30 European countries.
In the Interim Evaluation of Horizon 2020, CIMULACT was mentioned as one example that had been already able to deliver significant inputs to Horizon 2020.
This report assesses the impact of the CIMULACT project from two points of view:
i) The impact on the European research agenda, particularly the use of the project outcomes in the process of designing the recent Work Programme of Horizon 2020 (H2020 WP 2018 – 2020) and a possible further utilization of its results in the formulation of the Framework Programme 9.
ii) The impact on the partners of the project, including further uses of the methodology as well as co-creation and public engagement activities.
