Le coeur du projet ADAPTA est l’analyse des interactions entre débats publics, processus politiques et les multiples formes de participation du public aux choix technologiques et scientifiques.
6 pays ont été étudiés par des équipes nationales : Allemagne, Danemark, France, Pays-Bas, Portugal, Royaume-Uni (voir les rapports en annexe). Trois champs d’observations ont été utilisés : les transports urbains, les OGM dans l’alimentation et l’agriculture et les tests génétiques.
