| Inhalt | Inter- and transdisciplinary collaboration are essential prerequisites to scientifically analyse and effectively tackle complex real-world problems, such as sustainability challenges. However, what is meant by inter- and transdisciplinarity, and how and by which approaches interdisciplinary research is conducted? In the first (theoretical) 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 the second (practical) part, we discuss two established tools of interdisciplinary research in sustainability sciences: system analysis and sustainability assessment. Guest lectures will share their personal experiences with interdisciplinary collaboration in science. In the third (reflexive) part, we round up the lecture by a critical reflection upon contributions of science to the transformation towards sustainable development. The lecture requires active participation as part of small practical exercises. |
