We will co-develop, with Vinnova officials, a shared understanding of what formative evaluation could mean for Vinnova evaluation and programme management practices. We will use a past intervention, the “Forest methanol” project (Skogsmetanol), as a heuristic tool to illustrate what elements of the project management and development would have been conducted differently under different formative evaluation approaches. These will be discussed at a workshop to take place in Stockholm in late January 2019, the results of which will be summarized in a workshop report.

Esta propuesta tiene como finalidad desarrollar nuevos métodos de priorización en la investigación y testarlos en el área de obesidad. En mi anterior proyecto europeo (MapReport, Marie Curie Integration Grant, 2013-2017) desarrollé análisis sobre las prioridades de investigación en obesidad obtenidas a partir de datos de publicaciones científicas, e hice un estudio cualitativo de las percepciones de stakeholders sobre las necesidades de investigación.
