Relative weight of WWP components in the days
Final conclusions and proposals for the future
By integrating the results of the three Workshop Days, it is evident the importance of moving forward with actions from the three components or dimensions of the WWP model, with a view to integrating the IAR Principles and the DVGT, generating synergies from an integrated approach. The problems detected have focused more on political-contextual aspects (52.0%), followed by ethical-social aspects (30.0%) and other technical-business aspects (20.0%).
In relation to future actions to be undertaken to facilitate the integration and promotion of the IAR Principles and the DVGT, they have also focused mainly on political-contextual aspects (48.0%). From this dimension, joint actions from the participating universities stand out, designing a strategy that integrates research, links with society and teaching. Actions that allow the relationship between public-private actors to enhance the link between the university and the company and society, formulate projects based on the needs of the communities, generate joint research, promote institutional synergies, internationalize and disseminate are considered fundamental. success stories, sharing and systematizing experiences. Furthermore, it is considered important to create subject-oriented research groups in universities in relation to the IAR Principles and the DVGT.
From the ethical-social point of view (32.0%), training and skills development actions are proposed on the themes of the IAR Principles and the DVGT, aimed at teachers-researchers, entrepreneurs and agents of society. It is considered necessary to change mentalities, from continuous training to specific groups and key actors, to train ethical and competent leaders for project management and governance. In addition, it is considered important to train in healthy habits, in educational innovation and new teaching-research methodologies, to sensitize and train the actors of the productive chains, to generate entrepreneurs based on the IAR principles.
Finally, from the technical-business dimension (20.0%) actions are proposed to have "living laboratories" (territorial experiences) driven by projects and research that link knowledge-action-learning, promote teamwork, associationism and people's trust from joint projects. The importance of the entrepreneur as a strategic ally and integration with producer associations is highlighted. These "laboratories" are also platforms for educational innovation, the training of professionals and doctors who respond to new social demands and face the problems of the rural environment and the agri-food sector.
