"During TRANSFORM, two main activities were carried out by the catalan cluster: 1) the setting up of a Think Tank on RRI and citizen science composed of different stakeholders from the regional R&I ecosystem; 2) the co-design (together with the members of the Think Tank) and implementation of 2 citizen science pilots: one in the field of waste, other in the field of health. After 3 years of the project, this process had several positive impacts at local and regional level, which deserve to be shared publicly so that other regions can take advantage of the lessons learned to implement similar processes. "
This "summary of results" is the product of a citizen science pilot to contribute to the improvement of the separate waste collection system in Mollet del Vallès (Barcelona). The research has involved 60 students from 4 secondary schools in the municipality to explore citizens' preferences towards innovative separate collection systems (smart bins and door-to-door) and the variables that may act as possible facilitators or barriers to their implementation. As a citizen science tool, a digital waste game called "Dilemma R" was created and developed, with great potential for replicability in other municipalities.
