Reflecting on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) at the Science meets Parliaments in Belgrade
The 2nd TeRRIFICA
Reflective Workshop was held in Belgrade on the 10th and 11th
July 2019. It was a joint activity with the “Science Meets Parliaments” event
hosted at the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia. The TeRRIFICA team
met the day after to the workshop to celebrate an internal Consortium meeting.
This second workshop focused
on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and its meaning for climate action.The six TeRRIFICA pilot
regions in Belarus, France, Germany, Poland, Serbia and Spain, were presented
at the event on merging pilot regions topic-wise: air, agriculture, water and
temperature.
The workshop was organized by
the Center for the Promotion of Science within the framework of the H2020
TeRRIFICA project, whereby eight European institutions work together to foster
competence for climate change adaptation and mitigation in different European
regions with a specific focus on Responsible Research and Innovation.

After a successful 1st TeRRIFICA Reflective Workshop, TeRRIFICA held the 2nd TeRRIFICA Reflective Workshop at the National Assembly of the Republic of Serbia on July 10th and 11th. This workshop was part of the ‘Science Meets Parliaments’, event organized for the first time in Serbia by the Center for the Promotion of Science in collaboration with the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development, and under the patronage of the Joint Research Centrе (JRC) of the European Commission.
This second workshop focused on Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) and
their meaning for climate action. What does success look like in TeRRIFICA? How
can the Theory of Change be used in the development, implementation and
evaluation of TeRRIFICA?
These and other issues were addressed to prove for stakeholder perspectives on what ‘success’ looks like for the project. The workshop was facilitated in a manner similar to the first reflective workshop, as a series of concurrent focus groups with partner representatives as moderators. The discussions will be used as data pool for the identification of potential indicators that are not already accounted for in the MoRRI indicators or other existing metrics considered for use in the project. The discussion will be analysed to identify additional variables and KPIs that could be defined based on this bottom-up perspective from stakeholders. The results of the workshop will be used to expand the KPI scope beyond the MoRRI indicators.

The TeRRIFICA
team met the day
after the workshop to celebrate an internal Consortium meeting. Representatives
from the consortium institutions, together with members of the TeRRIFICA
Advisory Boards, gathered in the premises of the Center for the Promotion of
Science in Belgrade for the meeting.
Among other aspects, the meeting focused on the
TeRRIFICA crowdmapping tool, to be launched on September 2019, and
the forthcoming 2nd TeRRIFICA Online Conference, which will be held on the 19th
September 2019.
Other issues that were discussed are the active
dissemination strategy of TeRRIFICA, available on www.terrifica.eu, and the increasing engagement in the
TeRRIFICA main communication channels was celebrated as well.
The EU funded project TeRRIFICA (Territorial
Responsible Research and Innovation Fostering Innovative Climate Action) with
its network partners in six regions of Europe will seek for best practice and identify
the approaches that are already in place to mitigate climate change and adapt
to its effects.
In a trans-disciplinary partnership, TeRRIFICA
involves six European countries, bringing together three research institutions,
three non-profit organisations, one public association of universities and one
public institution for science promotion. TeRRIFICA is led by WILA Bonn (Bonn,
Germany) and the TeRRIFICA consortium is composted by the Rhine-Waal University
(Kleve, Germany), the Education for Sustainable Development Association (Minsk,
Belarus), the Center for the Promotion of Science (Belgrade, Serbia), the
University of Vechta (Germany), the Adam Mickiewicz University (Poznan,
Poland), Sciences Citoyennes (Paris, France) and the Catalan Association of
Public Universities (Barcelona, Spain). The project is funded by the
Horizon2020 programme of the European Commission.
