TRIS Dashboard

Description

In the context of global transitions mainly driven by climate change, digitalization and automation the TRIS model for economic development (Ayadi & Sessa 2020) is anchored in the following guiding principles:

  1. Transparency aimed to build trust based on greater accountability
  2. Responsibility aimed to manage the possible intended and unintended consequences of our actions in the future and reflect on their ethical acceptability
  3. Inclusiveness aimed to take into account what is societally desirable for the current generations
  4. Sustainability aimed to take into account what is left for future generations.

The TRIS Dashboard is an interactive open access knowledge platform that monitors key dimensions and relevant indicators of the four principles of the TRIS model.

The TRIS Dashboard was pre-launched at COP27 (Sharm el Sheikh). Professor Rym Ayadi presented the TRIS model and dashboard in an event on the importance of research and innovation in the fight against climate change in the Mediterranean.
