About this event

  • 1 hour

Reflecting and assessing societal impact of transdisciplinary research has gained importance during the last years. On the one side, funders and policy makers ask for evidence about the effectiveness of this research type, on the other side the researchers themselves want to get insights if they are successful in contributing to the solution of complex real-life problems. A workshop format will be introduced which allows to make implicit assumptions about the links between research activities, outputs and intended effects in the project team explicit. Reflecting on this “Theory of Change” allows to identify priorities, develop a monitoring concept and responsive measures for an impact-oriented project design.
