科学家和利益攸关方之间的有意义的接触得到了广泛的促进，将其作为增加公众对科学的参与以及提高科学研究的相关性和影响力的工具。然而，联合生产知识需要实际的挑战，因为具有不同世界观、专业知识和兴趣的参与者应该进行合作。这些障碍没有得到足够的重视，因为目前的辩论更多地集中在这一方法的优点和原则上。我们通过反思我们在基于共同创造知识的研究项目所产生的实际和方法挑战方面的经验来解决这一差距，从而揭示我们认为常见但未得到充分讨论的障碍，以及解决这些障碍的指导。我们强调社会科学家在这一进程中的作用，他们不仅是促进者，而且是促进批判性思考和维护进程及其成果的重要性、可信度和合法性的推动者。
Meaningful engagement between scientists and stakeholders has been extensively promoted as a tool for increasing public participation in science, as well as for increasing the relevance and impact of scientific research. Yet, co-production of knowledge entails practical challenges, since participants with diverse worldviews, expertise and interests are expected to collaborate. These obstacles have not received enough attention, as current debate has focused more on the merits and principles of this approach. We address this gap by reflecting upon our experiences with both practical and methodological challenges stemming from research projects based on co-production of knowledge, thereby exposing what we see as common but under-discussed obstacles, as well as guidance for tackling them. We highlight the role of social scientists in the process not merely as facilitators but also as agents that promote critical reflection and safeguard the salience, credibility, and legitimacy of both the process and its outputs.
