- Summary:
- This case study describes a method to create solutions in the form of operational recommendations, pilot actions, and new research agendas to address social and economic inequalities and existing research problems. It takes as point of departure that inequalities are gendered and intersectional and aims to find solutions to reduce these inequalities. It is based on the method of Open Studios, as applied in RESISTIRÉ, an EU Horizon 2020 research project on the impact of COVID-19 societal and policy responses on inequalities. The Open Studios are two-day multi-stakeholder co-creation workshops to develop solutions to reduce inequalities. To feed the co-creation process, research results were translated into "better stories" and "personas." Both are based on qualitative research results and are used to stimulate Open Studio participants. Better stories are examples of practices that can inspire workshop participants when developing new solutions. Personas are archetypes of real persons and built on a large number of individual narratives. They are used to ensure the developed solutions take into account the specific needs, interests, and situations of vulnerable people. The case is based on a total of twelve Open Studios, which took place from 2021 to 2023 and resulted in various outputs, including nine pilot projects of social innovations, implemented by civil society in different European countries, policy recommendations, and research agendas. The method described can be applied by all levels of research.
