Overview
In this course, we will focus on these four goals:
- Participants will gain a comprehensive understanding of the key steps involved in the Interdisciplinary Research (IDR) process.
- Through practical examples, they’ll explore how these insights can be translated into practice.
- Participants will collaborate on a shared case to test and refine the concepts learned and apply these insights to their own ITDR research idea or case.
- Participants will explore research design with arts-based research methods.
- Participants will not only learn in theory and practice on how to set up an interdisciplinary (or transdisciplinary = including stakeholders) project, the course should also result in an optimal inter- or transdisciplinary project proposal. At the end of the course, participants will present their IDR case.
