“Transdisciplinarity” (A Rose) by any other name would smell just as sweet
‘Looking at the Future of Transdisciplinary Research’ lays out an ambitious agenda for science. It argues that even though working within disciplinary siloes has been immensely productive for science in the past three centuries, the complex wicked problems of the world today call for science to become ‘transdisciplinary’. I agree with this overall redirection of science systems. Transdisciplinarity meaning codesigning and coproducing knowledge with stakeholders and resulting in real-world impacts is urgently needed. The challenges of the Anthropocene demand such impactful work by scientists.
