The document discusses the importance of societal readiness and co-design in developing innovations for decarbonized travel. It emphasizes that societal readiness is a quality of the innovation itself, not of society, and innovations should be designed to be ready for society through an inclusive research and innovation process. The DecarboN8 initiative is working to develop an evaluation tool to assess the societal readiness of innovations by posing challenging questions about the research and innovation process, such as how stakeholders will be involved and how the innovation may impact different people and places.

Societal Readiness: Co-design for Decarbonised Travel
- 1. Societal Readiness: importance of co-design Decarbonised travel, people and place Is your innovation ready for society? Monika Buscher & Nicola Spurling Lancaster University Centre for Mobilities Research & Sociology DecarboN8 co-theme leads
- 2. Societal readiness • Societal readiness is a quality of innovation, technology, transport solutions. NOT a quality of society. (although this is to put it strongly) • Is your innovation ready for society? How did you make it so? What is your research and innovation process? • Process of research and innovation NOT behaviour change as final step in the innovation process • DecarboN8: ensuring the societal readiness of innovation. • Posing challenging questions about processes of research, innovation and procurement • The DecarboN8 stakeholder reference group developing societal readiness evaluation tool
- 3. Questions about processes of research and innovation • Which people and places are the focus of your project? How will they be involved? • What issues of inclusivity and access will you consider in the research process? • Will people have an opportunity to co-design or try out any innovations in their everyday lives? (which people?) • In what sense(s) is the research and associated innovation good for people and places? (which people and places?) • What positive or negative unanticipated consequences might the research or innovation have?

- Introduce me and Monika, 2 slides. i) give an overview of what societal readiness means in decarbon8 ii) some questions for your to consider.
- In the decarbon8 we are thinking about societal readiness as a quality of the innovation, technology, transport solution. Not a quality of society ‘being ready’ for new technology. Rather it’s about a research and innovation process which ensures good design, and which takes account of people and place, so that technology, solutions are ready for society. 2) Moving to the second point, the question we want to ask: is your innovation ready for society? And how did you make it so. In terms of seed-corn projects, the second part of that question is really relevant. 3) Encourage you to reflect on the process of research that underpins innovation. So once again, to put it strongly, rather than innovating, and then expecting people to change behaviour, instead place focus on co-design, and processes that involve the stakeholders, people and places that will eventually live with these solutions. 4) Ensuring societal readiness of innovation is one of the promises that we made in the DecarboN8 bid, and the reason we made that promised is that we think this approach is essential so that rapid decarbonisation is achieved in ways that are good for society – for diverse people and places. 5) So we want you to consider the process of research and innovation that you develop for your project. Pose challenging questions to yourself about that process and how its designed – and I have some question on the next that you could use for this purpose. We don’t have a standardised idea of the process should look at – we actually think that this is project specific, but we ask to engage with this aspect, and think with us on how it could be achieved. So we invite you to engage creatively with this aspect of the research call, and part of the discussions today can explore some of the possibilities. 6) And the final point, We have also already built some elements of societal readiness into this sandpit process to help achieve this aspect: Working with our regional partners we have identified a list of indicative topic areas, which align with our thematic priorities In DecarboN8 I chair a stakeholder reference group. The Regional Youth parliament climate assembly, are represented on this group, will also be part of the sandpit process – a bit further down the line a panel of 11-18 year olds they will feedback on summaries of proposals and invite PIs to take the feedback on board.
- So how to ensure that that your innovation/ the outcomes of research are ready for society? Consider the following questions are you are developing your research process… what will your research and innovation process be like? Some questions to think about/ address.
