This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2). This dissertation research investigates the roles of boundary spanners in Arctic co-production of knowledge (CPK) projects. Boundary spanners are those who facilitate knowledge exchanges and co-production between researchers and stakeholders. This research aims to identify the characteristics of successful boundary spanners and document the process of boundary spanning through collaborative work with fifteen research partners. Partners are both Indigenous and non-Indigenous from across Alaska; they will participate in a two-day workshop to develop a conceptual model of boundary-spanning. This dissertation project employs a co-production of knowledge framework, prioritizing research equity within an Alaska Native context. Anticipated broader impacts include contributions to the social science of boundary spanning and relational research methods. Research results will be disseminated through completion of a doctoral dissertation, a co-produced white paper and peer-reviewed articles.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该奖项全部或部分根据2021年美国救援计划法案（公法117-2）资助。本论文研究了边界空间在北极知识合作生产（CPK）项目中的作用。边界空间是那些促进研究人员和利益相关者之间的知识交流和共同生产的空间。本研究旨在通过与15个研究伙伴的合作，识别成功的边界空间的特征，并记录边界跨越的过程。合作伙伴都是来自阿拉斯加各地的土著和非土著;他们将参加为期两天的研讨会，以制定一个跨越边界的概念模型。本论文项目采用知识框架的合作生产，优先考虑阿拉斯加本土背景下的研究公平。预期更广泛的影响包括对跨越边界和关系研究方法的社会科学的贡献。研究成果将通过完成博士论文、共同撰写的白色论文和同行评议的文章进行传播。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并被认为值得通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估来支持。
