Background: We are setting up a co-creative, action-oriented research project. We have about 5 month left to design an experimental intervention (think of it as a series of workshops) and are about 10 people, primarily researchers, collaborating. In later steps there probably will be stakeholders involved. We have slim resources and would like to make the most out of the project - as well in academic terms. The project takes place in the area of climate change negotiations.

Aim: We would like to a) generate data on the process that can be used for analysis/ publications and b) reflect on the process while we go along.

Question: Which effective, easy and (maybe even) fun ways do you know of tracing a co-creative, action-oriented research process?

Dimensions to trace include:

  • reasonings and decisions on designing the project
  • project design
  • individual and collective learnings and insights (of the research team)
  • team-work related aspects

I am happy for examples of projects, own insights/ reflections, or (actually) relevant articles.

Many thanks!
