Transdisciplinary Research for Socio-Environmental Challenges: From Theory to Practice
In recent years, transdisciplinary research methodologies have been gaining prominence. Intended to foster more just research environments, such methodologies recognize diverse actors and forms of expertise in responding to the challenges of global polycrises. This Thematic Cluster brings together perspectives from history, philosophy, and social studies of science on transdisciplinary knowledge production. Directed at concrete socio-environmental problems (e.g. deforestation, biodiversity loss, soil erosion, climate change, public health, and so on), the compiled works discuss case studies of transdisciplinary research, as well as meta-reflections on the achievements, challenges and theoretical conflicts of collaborative knowledge making. Viewed collectively, these perspectives reveal the theoretical depth and practical challenges involved in navigating disciplinary and epistemic divides. They underscore the need to examine not only how transdisciplinary approaches operate in real-world settings but also how they are conceptualized and framed across various intellectual traditions. As such, we encourage authors to draw on their applied experiences in transdisciplinary research environments within and beyond Latin America, and to reflect on the theory and practice gap in multi stakeholder knowledge production, such as power and positionality conflicts, epistemic resilience, multispecies justice, care relationships, and intercultural dialogues.
