本文讨论了“如何”设计和实施气候科学和其他环境和农业科学知识的联合生产这一具有挑战性的问题。基于对九(9)个已发表的跨学科和协作研究项目案例研究的扎根理论回顾,本文提供了一组关于设计、实施和实现共同生产的知识工作的具体组成部分和过程的共同主题,这些共同主题代表了知识联合生产的“操作方式”。分析的重点是基于不同研究团队如何应对复杂协作研究挑战的经验教训的实用方法指导。我们首先确定阻碍或促进这一进程的广泛因素或行动,然后强调与联合生产知识和开展联合生产所需能力相关的具体做法。我们提供了对社会和职业文化的融合、性别和社会公平以及权力动态等问题的见解,并说明了研究人员解决这些问题的不同方式。通过探索知识联合生产的具体实践,本文为研究人员提供了指导,指导他们如何在进行跨学科和联合生产知识研究项目的过程中驾驭不同的可能性,以最适合他们的研究背景、利益相关者的需求和研究团队的能力。
This review paper addresses the challenging question of "how to" design and implement co-production of knowledge in climate science and other environmental and agricultural sciences. Based on a grounded theory review of nine (9) published case studies of transdisciplinary and collaborative research projects, the paper offers a set of common themes regarding specific components and processes for the design, implementation, and achievement of co-production of knowledge work, which represent the "Modus Operandi" of knowledge co-production. The analysis focuses on practical methodological guidance based on lessons from how different research teams have approached the challenges of complex collaborative research. We begin by identifying broad factors or actions that inhibit or facilitate the process, then highlight specific practices associated with co-production of knowledge and necessary competencies for undertaking co-production. We provide insights on issues such as the integration of social and professional cultures, gender and social equity, and power dynamics, and illustrate the different ways in which researchers have addressed these issues. By exploring the specific practices involved in knowledge co-production, this paper provides guidance to researchers on how to navigate different possibilities of the process of conducting transdisciplinary and co-production of knowledge research projects that best fit their research context, stakeholder needs, and research team capacities.
