RAAK-PRO

RAAK-PRO enhances the quality (methodological and in relation to the content) of applied research and strengthens the research capacity of the relevant research groups. This is done by bolstering the long-term cooperative relationship with the national knowledge network and strengthening the position in the knowledge chain, based on the need that exists in practice. The collaboration is aimed at developing new knowledge and applying it.

Directed by the working field, systematic research is carried out in collaboration with knowledge institutions, universities and the industry/business&public sector. The results of the research are new knowledge and insights. These will be translated, in a systematic
and structural way, into new methods of action alternatives for professionals. These demonstrably effect the education innovation, the professional practice and the knowledge network.
