Co-production has become a cornerstone of research within the sustainability sciences, motivating collaborations diverse actors to conduct in service societal and policy change. This review examines theoretical empirical literature from science, public administration, science technology studies (STS) with intention advancing theory practice co-production science. We argue that must go beyond stakeholder engagement by scientists more deliberate design transitions. can contribute such...

Cultivating a more dynamic relationship between science and policy is essential for responding to complex social challenges such as sustainability. One approach doing so "span the boundaries" decision making create comprehensive inclusive knowledge exchange process. The exact definition role of boundary spanning, however, can be nebulous. Indeed, spanning often gets conflated confused with other approaches connecting policy, communication, applied science, advocacy, which hinder progress in...

Co-production, the collaborative weaving of research and practice by diverse societal actors, is argued to play an important role in sustainability transformations. Yet, there still poor understanding how navigate tensions that emerge these processes. Through analyzing 32 initiatives worldwide co-produced knowledge action foster sustainable social-ecological relations, we conceptualize ‘co-productive agility’ as emergent feature vital for turning into Co-productive agility refers willingness...

Australia has a significant intake of refugees each year. The majority enter through the humanitarian entrants program and small percentage arrive seeking asylum. These processes have resulted in considerable debate, which sometimes been associated with negative attitudes within mainstream community. Research indicated that realistic threat symbolic are important components integrated theory for understanding opposition towards immigrants refugees. Social desirability also as potentially...

Abstract Decades of research and policy interventions on biodiversity have insufficiently addressed the dual issues degradation social justice. New approaches are therefore needed. We devised a action agenda that calls for collective task revisiting toward goal sustaining diverse just futures life Earth. Revisiting involves critically reflecting past present research, policy, practice concerning to inspire creative thinking about future. The was developed through 2‐year dialogue process...

Research synthesis is the integration of existing knowledge and research findings pertinent to an issue. The aim increase generality applicability those develop new through process integration. Synthesis promoted as approach that deals with challenge öinformation overload', delivering products further our understanding problems distil relevant evidence for decision-making. However, despite increasing prominence efforts in science policy landscape, we know very little about impacts these...

Abstract Boundary organizations are situated between science, policy, and practice have a goal of supporting communication collaboration among these sectors. They been promoted as way to improve the effectiveness conservation efforts by building stronger relationships scientists, policy makers, industry, practitioners (Cook et al. 2013). Although their promise has discussed in theory, work expectations for boundary less defined practice. Biodiversity is characterized complexity, uncertainty,...

A workshop held at the University of Cambridge in May 2017 brought developers, researchers, knowledge brokers, and users together to discuss user-centred design decision support tools. Decision tools are designed take through logical steps towards an evidence-informed final decision. Although they may exist different forms, including on paper, generally considered be computer- (online, software) or app-based. Studies have illustrated potential value for conservation, there several papers...

Abstract Conservation researchers are increasingly drawing on a wide range of philosophies, methods and values to examine conservation problems. Here we adopt from social psychology develop questionnaire with the dual purpose illuminating diversity within research communities providing tool for use in cross-disciplinary dialogue workshops.
