DAISY (DigitAl, TechnologIcal and Social innovation mixes enabling biodiversity and equitY) will focus on interventions to address biodiversity loss and equity by way of transforming the nature of our relationship with biodiversity. DAISY will provide an overview of the main social, political and economic processes, projects and innovations contributing to transformation; scan current and emerging social-technological innovations and trends; co-productively, in collaboration with stakeholders, identify, weave together and test transformative interventions mixes (TIMs), assess transformation and key enabling factors in five intensive seed innovation case studies, together with a series of additional lab-based studies and foresight scenario workshops; bring together networks and science-policy interfaces related to transformation communities of both practice and research; and provide concrete recommendations for policymaking on how transformation for biodiversity and equity can be realised on the personal, practical and political spheres.
Project funding:
EU Research and Innovation Funding Programme “Horizon Europe”
Project results:
The aim of DAISY is to i) better understand from economic, social, political and behavioural viewpoints, the potential contribution of social-technological innovations to systemic change and the enablers of transformation, and to ii) provide tested and assessed concrete recommendations of intervention mixes (including social-technological innovations) for achieving transformation for biodiversity and equity.
