The project has developed a digital and interactive tool using norm-critical about norm-creative innovation to be used in different actors´ project development and application for public funds.

Expected results and effects

The project has developed a digital and interactive tool with the help of normcritical and norm-creative innovation to be used in various actors project development and application for public funds. Admittedly, there are knowledge-enhancing documents, but not what we know is digital interactive support.The significant added value that has now been added is. Interactivity, Nudging, Transformative approach and inclusion of geography as grounds for discrimination. The tool should provide pushes for better choices without restricting freedom of action. It should be easy to do right

Planned approach and implementation

The innovation process has been conducted agile and iteratively based on Design Thinking as a method, where users with different perspectives and roles were involved. The pandemic affected the process and analysis work early on. The transition to digital workshops also simplified the work of including a broader geography. Location and geography thus became a natural part of the intersectional analyzes that work to make interpretive preference, prioritization patterns and resource distribution visible.
