Sustainabiity research paper

PAGES is involved in a new paper, released today in Nature Sustainability, which proposes a set of four general principles that underlie high-quality knowledge co-production for sustainability research.

"Principles for knowledge co-production in sustainability research" by Albert Norström et al. is a collaborative effort originally organized by Future Earth and its Global Research Projects, of which PAGES is one. PAGES Executive Director Marie-France Loutre is a co-author.

Definitions of knowledge co-production are diverse and often contradictory. The paper's authors define it as "iterative and collaborative processes involving diverse types of expertise, knowledge, and actors to produce context-specific knowledge and pathways towards a sustainable future."
