Arctic research networks workshop

The Scottish Arctic Network (ScAN) and the Network of Arctic Researchers Ireland (NARI) are hosting an interactive workshop to discover the potential for Arctic research networks to utilise knowledge co-production as a communication tool to improve their ability to meet societal needs.

The methodology employs an adapted version of the knowledge co-production compass developed by Schneider et al., (2021) where community engagement to gather knowledge on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of utilizing knowledge co-production at different operational stages of a research network’s activities will be sought .

The results will be presented in a co-authored paper later in the year.
