Advancing Justice and Equity Through Co-produced Research

Session ID#: 157626

Session Description:
Co-production of knowledge is emerging as a methodological approach that can elevate the perspectives of under-represented and under-resourced individuals and communities to address complex environmental challenges. Justice and equity are crucial elements to this approach in not only seeking solutions but also addressing systemic inequities. The partnership within co-production can move these goals forward by supporting self-determination as well as relevant and legitimate research projects. However, there are also pitfalls to consider in community fatigue, lack of capacity to collaborate, misalignment of goals, miscommunication, and the time it takes to build relationships. This session provides a platform for promising practices, case examples, and experiences in both co-production theory and practice that highlight how co-production can advance justice and equity.
