Serious game to discuss serious nanotech

'Scenario Exploration System' (SES) - a future simulation tool developed by JRC

NANO2ALL aims at establishing a European-wide sustainable platform for mutual learning and informed dialogue among all stakeholders to improve transparency and societal engagement in responsible nanotechnology. More about the project here.

The project will use a new approach - the 'Scenario Exploration System' (SES) - a future simulation tool developed by JRC. NANO2ALL will adapt this serious scenario-building game to nanotechnologies, letting participants to try out the roles of other stakeholders. Taking the roles of others help us better comprehend the perspectives that others may have about certain issues, in this case about nanotechnologies. These perspectives, concerns and expectations will be mapped through this game.

NANO2ALL partners are now developing this methodology, and will also implement citizen dialogues in 6 European countries in 2017 to enrich the application scenarios and techno-moral vignettes to be explored through the game in a multi-stakeholder setting.

Project

NANO2ALL

What are benefits and risks of advancing nanotechnology research? What are the expectations and concerns of the different people impacted by the development of this fast-growing field? Could we gather this knowledge and design recommendations to shape future policies that will drive these advancements in a more responsible way? This is what NANO2ALL was about: promoting mutual learning, informed dialogue and societal engagement in responsible nanotechnology.
