Problematising Co-production

有人批评说，在社区进行的研究往往不能在设计和开展过程中有意义地将社区纳入其中，合作生产已成为一种潜在的解决方案。合作制作现在也被认为是解决研究中存在的“相关性差距”和满足“影响”需求的一种方法。研究中的合作生产旨在将赋权原则付诸实践，与社区合作，让社区对研究过程有更大的控制权，并提供学习和反思经验的机会。联合制作的倡导者认为，通过纳入“经验专业知识”（Collins and Evans 2007）可以加强研究，这可能会突出被“专家”忽视的相关问题（Fischer 2000）。合作生产可以通过更好地了解社区的偏好和需求来提高研究的有效性，然后社区为改进结果和可实现的解决方案做出贡献（Ostrom 1996）。本文从跨领域的角度进行综述，旨在推动与社区合作研究的理论与实践。

Co-production has emerged as a potential solution to a criticism that research conducted in communities often fails to meaningfully include communities in its design and undertaking. Co-production is now also perceived as a solution to an argued 'relevance gap' in research and to the demands of 'impact'. Co-production in research aims to put principles of empowerment into practice, working 'with' communities and offering communities greater control over the research process and providing opportunities to learn and reflect from their experience. Advocates for co-production argue that research is enhanced through including 'experiential expertise' (Collins and Evans 2007) which may highlight relevant questions otherwise neglected by 'experts' (Fischer 2000). Co-production can enhance the effectiveness of research by making it better informed by communities' preferences and needs, with communities then contributing to improved outcomes and achievable solutions (Ostrom 1996). This review takes a cross-cutting perspective, aiming to advance the theory and practice of co-production in research with communities.
