CANDID – Checking Assumptions aND promoting responsibility in smart Development – is a EU Horizon 2020 project exploring the future of smart technologies from an interdisciplinary perspective.

The CANDID Research and Innovation project addresses the specific challenge set by ICT-35-2016 : Enabling responsible ICT-related research and innovation, designed to make sure that technological innovations, in this case ‘smart technologies and systems’, are developed with societal needs and expectations in mind.

The project runs from 2017-01-01 to 2017-12-31.

The project partners are now critically appraising smart technologies and systems by bringing together insights and experiences from ICT and SSH innovators and researchers, to explore the future of smart technologies from an interdisciplinary perspective.

CANDID will develop an interactive tool to help technology developers reflect on how to best tackle social challenges presented by ‘smart’ digital solutions and connected devices.
