The Brussels Seminar, hosted by the European Economic and Social Council, will be composed in two parts. The first part is devoted to the presentation of the SET-DEV project and its main outcomes. In particular, the “Knowledge Swaraj: an Indian Manifesto on Science and Technology” , the “African Manifesto for Science, Technology and Innovation”, the pilot projects carried out in India and Kenya and the document “Technological responsibility. Guidelines for a shared governance of the processes of socialisation of scientific research and innovation, within an interconnected world” will be presented and discussed. In the second part of the Seminar a Round Table will be held focused on the lessons learned from the project in the perspective of the Europe-Third countries scientific cooperation.
