Learn from researchers who aim to do truly engaged work that addresses pressing ecological challenges. Co-produced research is designed and implemented in partnership with end-users. This type of research requires boundary-spanning partnerships with entities outside of academia, and is particularly challenging to do within conventional academic systems that reward individuality over collaboration, and conformity over risk-taking. The presentations in this session exemplify diverse approaches to co-production, including partnerships with government agencies, industry, and local communities. They also highlight obstacles faced by engaged researchers operating in academic structures not designed to facilitate such work. We present diverse approaches to co-production, and highlight the challenges and benefits of research co-production in academia.
