In collaboration with the LIRA 2030 Africa Programme, this Pathways Forum offers an opportunity to explore through concrete cases, methodological, epistemological, and practical implications of conducting transdisciplinary research.
Alice McClure (University of Cape Town) and Temilade Sesan (University of Ibadan), two researchers from the LIRA programme, shared with us their experience and key learnings from working on projects designed around the co-production of solutions-oriented, contextualized knowledge on sustainable development in specific urban contexts in Africa.
The Pathways Forum is an online event where researchers from diverse disciplines who engage, or want to engage, with societal actors in processes of adaptive learning to design, implement, and evaluate pathways to sustainability get a chance to reflect on concepts and theories of change, and discuss the practical implications of sustainability science and transdisciplinarity for research practices. Through this webinar series, the Pathways Initiative aims to develop and support agenda-setting, synthesis and capacity building around pathways for sustainability.
