Main research question: How can we improve the development of practically relevant and scientifically sound knowledge by setting up boundary arrangements and applying collaborative action research methods?

Project 1.1 Knowledge brokering between scientists and hotspot partners
The knowledge-brokering center will act as boundary arrangement. It facilitates:

a governance helpdesk
links between researchers and hotspots
learning processes between hotspots
information for the general public

Project 1.2 Enhancing, supporting and reflecting upon collaborative action research approach methodology This project is the methodological conscience of the research programme. It aims:

to translate the philosophy of collaborative action research into practical methods
to enhance the theoretical foundation of collaborative action research in the specific context of governance of climate adaptation.
