INTERCLIME Workshop
Beyond Participation: Applying Co-Production Methods in Interdisciplinary Research
👥 Who should attend: PhD students, early-career researchers, and practitioners working across interdisciplinary themes in the Global South and North.
🔎 What’s the Workshop About?
Co-production is more than participation—it’s about reshaping how and by whom knowledge is created. This interactive workshop will explore how to meaningfully integrate co-production methods in transdisciplinary research, especially within climate, health, gender, ageing, and cultural contexts.
🎯 Workshop Objectives
✔ Understand the principles and politics of co-production✔ Explore practical tools for co-designing research✔ Reflect on power, positionality, and ethics✔ Apply co-production strategies to your own work
