Applications now closed: Transdisciplinary Methods for Developing Nexus Capabilities Workshop

The Nexus Network workshop on ‘Transdisciplinary Methods for Developing Nexus Capabilities’, will be held at the University of Sussex, UK on 29-30 June 2015.

 

The workshop will be shaped around two key questions:

  • What different kinds and interconnections of method in contrasting contexts, form the most practical basis for enabling transformative action to address Nexus challenges?
  • How can such encompassing Nexus methodologies best enable academic, government, business and civil society actors to develop appropriate skills, training and research capabilities?

 

Stimulus paper

In the stimulus paper for the workshop, Professor Andy Stirling and colleagues from the Nexus Network set out the context for the Transdisciplinary Methods for Developing Nexus Capabilities workshop. Please take a look at the full paper before applying to take part in the workshop: NexusNetwork_MethodsWorkshop_June2015_StimulusPaper_forparticipants
