Science and Innovation Policy Evaluation Repository (SIPER)

SIPER provides evaluation reports of research and innovation policy measures from numerous countries with a focus on EU or OECD countries and aims at being a central online source for evaluations of research and innovation policy measures. The focus is on two target groups: scientists and (political) decision-makers. The reports provided are thus intended both to provide a data basis for scientific research and inspire the development of new research questions, and to support policy learning and the development of evidence-based measures/programmes in the STI field.

The SIPER repository was developed during RISIS 1 (Research Infrastructure for Science and Innovation Studies) and is to be updated, extended and interlinked with other RISIS data sets as a sub-project of RISIS 2.
