The HUMAINE competence center is developing the HUMAINE Toolbox – a method toolbox that supports organizations in developing, implementing and using artificial intelligence in work processes in a human-centric way. The toolbox contains more than 20 tools that have been developed from various scientific disciplines and tested in practice in different industries. In order to expand the tools developed so far and test them in new application contexts, we would like to incorporate further and fresh perspectives in the form of mini-projects.

Goal of the satellite projects:

The mini-projects should pursue one of these two objectives:

  1. Further development of existing tools: A tool set or a tool from the HUMAINE Toolbox is further developed by additional practical and/or scientific expertise outside the existing consortium.
  2. Testing of existing tools: A tool set or a tool from the HUMAINE Toolbox is tested on a new practical use case outside the consortium.

Your application:

Interested parties are requested to submit a project proposal (max. 7 pages) covering the following aspects:

  1. Project partners involved (profiles, previous work, areas of expertise)
  2. Need for action/problem and preliminary work carried out
  3. Solution approach / result to be achieved (reference to HUMAINE Toolbox)
  4. Objective (usability and objective for regional or start-up development)
  5. Work plan
  6. Schedule, cost plan, description of available resources, own funds contributed
  7. Necessity to carry out the project as a HUMAINE network satellite
  8. Bibliography

Submission deadline for the current round is 28.02.2025.

For further information, please refer to the call for proposals.
