SUMMARY:Graduate Workshop: Tools for Transdisciplinary Research Projects
DESCRIPTION:Graduate and post-graduate research projects regularly cross th
 e boundaries of conventional disciplines and often involve various stakeho
 lder groups outside of academia. In these situations\, literature on inter
 - and transdisciplinary research is often consulted to come to terms with 
 the resulting methodological and theoretical challenges. This body of lite
 rature\, however\, offers a wide range of diverse approaches that cannot b
 e directly transferred and applied to individual projects.  This workshop
  is designed to support graduate students who consider integrating transdi
 sciplinary approaches into their research projects. It will provide an int
 roduction to the field of transdisciplinary research and will present tool
 s to design and carry out cooperative knowledge production. Particular att
 ention will be given to the specific challenges that are typically encount
 ered in PhD projects. Graduate research projects of workshop participants 
 will serve as case studies to practice the application of transdisciplinar
 y research tools.Structure of the Workshop\\r\\nThe workshop will begin wi
 th a keynote presentation and subsequent discussion. The first part will o
 ffer three further brief inputs by the speaker for further discussion in s
 mall groups. These inputs aim to introduce the td-net’s toolbox for co-p
 roducing knowledge. The second part will practice the application of the m
 ethods of this toolbox to graduate and postgraduate projects.Schedule09.15
