Abstract

This paper presents a boundary crossing pilot study that addresses the professional challenge that civic society has a deep mistrust of scientific evidence, experts, and psychologies, philosophies and ethics of trust. The paper addresses the professional challenge with Taysum et al’s (2020) Empowering Young Societal Innovators for Equity and Renewal Charter Mark from Education Policy as A Road Map to Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (Taysum, 2019) delivers their organisation’s strategic plan. Citizens from the quadruple helix; Universities, Industry, Governance Systems and Citizens and Social Media achieve this by meeting the Intended Learning Outcomes mapped to A Blueprint for Charater Development for Evolution (ABCDE) using Assessmet for Personal and Social Learning (APSL) mapped to MoRRi that they can: i) explicitly participate with intention and acts in an ethical social contract between citizens, the economy, the government and independent legislator drawing on Bottom up SwafS knowledge bases; ii) explicitly articulate how and in what ways participation with a social contract engenders inclusionary regimes of social justice and the precautionary principle for all; iii) build effective co-operation between science and society with leaders of the four spheres of the quadruple helix; iv) interact with open access Bottom up SwafS knowledge bases that foster recruitment of new talent for scientific careers in STEM, the Social Sciences and Arts and Humanities by pairing scientific excellence with social awareness, responsibility and eliminating intersectionalities of discrimination (gender, race, protected characteristics of Equality Act of 2010). Conclusions identify how and in what ways engagement with the EYSIER Charter Mark are of personal and social benefit that amplify the project’s main ‘SwafS’ objectives.
