Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
| The main objective of the INNOSUTRA project is to assess the conditions, including policy support, under which innovative concepts have a high chance of getting adopted and being successful. The work will start from the state-of-the-art and results attained in previous research projects and actions dealing with innovation processes, not only at European but often also at national or regional level, with the following goals targeted towards key action 5. Firstly, to identify the paths that new innovative concepts usually follow, what key determinants are, which actors are involved, and what policy has been doing and can do. As part of this, a typology of variables will be established, which will determine the possible path options. This will be the basis for the identification of successful adoption paths. Illustrations will be provided of the performance of innovative concepts in the transport sector, covering the maritime and port, land and integrated transport sectors, fitting each time into one of the typology cells. A further goal will be to come up with clear policy recommendations, identify best practices, barriers to implementation and transferability of innovative concepts and processes. Finally, the research will establish developments needed in assessment methods, complementary tools and a methodological framework if innovative concepts are introduced. Stakeholder consultation, collaboration and dissemination is a strong thread running through the whole of the research as a means of obtaining information, stimulating new thinking, providing feedback through peer review and strengthening the link between research and policy making. |
