| Inhalt | Interdisciplinarity is an important condition to successfully and scientifically understand and tackle complex real-world problems, such as sustainability challenges. However, what is meant by interdisciplinarity, and how and by which methods interdisciplinary research is conducted, are tricky questions by themselves. In a first part, the lecture introduces different forms, methods, challenges as well as requirements of interdisciplinarity (and transdisciplinarity), with a specific focus on questions of interdisciplinary research in sustainability sciences. In a second part, we discuss established and most important tools of interdisciplinary research in sustainability sciences: system analysis and sustainability assessment. In a third part, we round out the lecture by a critical reflection upon contributions of science to the transformation towards sustainable development. The lecture requires active participation as part of practical exercises. |
