R&D Unplugged #13 - discover our research

Join us for R&D Unplugged #13 with Olga Kokshagina

Bringing disciplines together: process-oriented co-design approaches to complex challenges

Tackling complex challenges, whether in healthcare, education or climate change, requires overcoming disciplinary silos and actively collaborating with diverse stakeholders. Traditional approaches are often insufficient, hence the need to adopt longitudinal and process-oriented methods. We will see how action research and co-design methodologies can deepen our understanding of complex problems and bring about significant change. Through concrete multi-year collaborative projects - including partnerships with WHO on health guideline design, studies on managing online communities to advance cancer epidemiology, and challenge-based learning initiatives - we'll explore how to effectively link research and practice in dynamic, interdisciplinary contexts

open to all!
