A key component of the SUPER MoRRI empirical research was the use of the country correspondents
network (CCN). The SUPER MoRRI CCN consisted of one correspondent per European Union Member State (MS). A
member of each SUPER MoRRI project team was the correspondent for their respective country. The
remaining members of the CCN were selected from applicants who responded to a call for correspondents
conducted in late 2019.
The network of country experts was envisaged to contribute to SUPER MoRRI through three main activities:
1. provide background intelligence and information about policy and practice contexts in relation to
RRI in their country;
2. conduct fieldwork, generate primary data and contribute where relevant to analyses for the study
of responsibility in research funding organisations (RFOs) in their country (CCN-RFO study); and
3. conduct fieldwork, generate primary data and contribute where relevant to analyses for the study
of responsibility in research performing organisations (RPOs) in their country (CCN-RPO study).
Country correspondents received online training regarding the conduct of these tasks at two online
workshops to be held 29th November and 4th December, 2020.
In addition to the CCN, four international satellite partners (ISPs) will participate in the online training
workshop and conduct fieldwork for the CCN-RFO study.
