“Collect recommendations from similar ethical impact assessments”

“During the evaluation of the identified ethical impacts, an inventory has been made of reports and publications on ethical impacts of similar materials, technologies, or products. The relevant recommendations included in those reports and publications are analysed by the type of ethical impact in the table below.”

“The EIA-team drafts its own societal and organisational recommendations and fills them in in the two tables below. Then, they present the draft recommendations to the stakeholders (and experts if needed) and fills in the received comments in both tables.”

“Societal recommendations”
