研究者と市民の共創を生み出す研究会の提案

抄録

In this study, we propose a new design of academic workshop to generate co-creation between researchers and citizens. Co-creation was defined as “people with diverse backgrounds conduct creative activities together to achieve common goals and/or to solve problems.” We designed a process with four steps to generate co-creation; ①learning about host area, ②presentation and dialogue, ③generate co-creation projects, and ④conduct creative activities. We established “Special Interest Group on Crowd Co-creation Intelligence” at The Japanese Society for Artificial Intelligence as a target of social experiment. A program of the workshop was designed to achieve one to three steps out of four steps. 56 people including researchers and citizens participated in the first workshop. As a result of the questionnaire, it was found that the aim of each programs were almost achieved. A total of six co-creation projects was generated. Built a good relationship between participants and generating co-creation ideas contributed to the generation of co-creation projects. In some cases, new cocreation projects were generated that combine citizen's ideas for solving regional problems and researchers' skills which could realize them. In this way, the effects co-creation between citizens and researchers through this workshop were seen.
