Approaches and methods

This project will use a co-creation methodology in order to facilitate open and collaborative innovation.

The concept of co-creation is different from the traditional push and pull approaches, as it actually implies that different parties actually ‘create’ something together, instead of one part developing something for the other to use (push-approach), or expressing a clear request or need to the other (pull-approach).

Collect and aggregate insights together with underlying values and beliefs from stakeholders, interest groups, and experts
