Scientific substantiation of scenarios for the future development of biotechnological processes including participative methods of gaining knowledge
Brief description
The overall objective of this project is to develop scenarios for the further development of biotechnological processes including participative methods of gaining knowledge. The project is co-ordinated by the consultancy firm IFOK and funded by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF). The task of DIALOGIK is to identify and evaluate potential risks and benefits of different developmental paths in the key fields of application of modern biotechnologies ('green', 'white', 'grey' and 'red' genetic engineering). In order to perform this task DIALOGIK will interview experts and organise workshops and focus groups.
