Outcome spaces framework - td-net toolbox profile 9 Mitchel, C., Fam, D. 2020
This publication describes the outcome spaces framework and is part of a series of tools and methods compiled in the td-net toolbox for co-producing knowledge. The outcome spaces framework is a framework to plan for preferred outcomes in transdisciplinary projects.
The outcome spaces framework provides a structure to reflect on, and classify participants’ preferred outcomes in a transdisciplinary project in a differentiated way. Three key realms of transdisciplinary outcome spaces are distinguished – situation, knowledge and learning – elaborated as (1) an improvement within the situation or field of inquiry, (2) the generation of relevant stocks and flows of knowledge, including scholarly knowledge and other societal knowledge forms (3) mutual and transformational learning by researchers and research participants to increase the likelihood of persistent change.
