Applying a conflict typology to ecologies of intermediation: the case of a transitions intermediary in Spain Within ecologies of intermediation, multiple intermediaries and their initiatives operate with overlapping remits and associated conflicts. To underst…

New paper is out! We collaborated with researchers from different disciplinary backgrounds to develop a #conflict typology and demonstrate its use for the context of ecology #intermediation to enable urban #transitions👇

Found a nice cafe not far from our place in Singapore to work on a project application. Multiple human interactions around create a surprisingly constructive environment that encourages writing👬👫
Going to critically reflect on the use of AI in governance in the potential project though🤖

Excited to explore Singapore when staying here in the coming months! Open to get in touch with local researchers studying urban transitions or innovation policy🔗

This year's edition of our #Td summer school is now over! Great presentations by project groups on four different topics - from organic farming, to intergenerational knowledge exchange, and self-sufficient communities. Looking forward to the next edition in KTH!💫

A very informative visit to the university in Eberswalde today - from system analysis of factors that shape the development of organic farming, to an overview of land use conflicts, and insights from years of experience with #Td research in the region.

Getting immersed in a Summer School on #transdisciplinary methods we are running this week in Brandenburg with great colleagues from TU Berlin, UPC and UPV.

Great feeling to get a printed copy of the book with our chapter on transdisciplinary courses, even though it is available online in open access👇

Fostering Urban Climate Transition Through Innovative Governance Coordination The role of cities in addressing the challenge of climate change is growing and becoming more noticeable in global debates and actions on the ground. However, transformative innovations needed for ad...

Happy to share my newly published paper about an innovative governance arrangment for climate transition governance! It was a long journey to draw a bigger picture based on rich data I collected during my #följeforskning with Viable Cities programme in Sweden.

Climate-neutral and inclusive communities - Skellefteå - Skellefteå Science City

Our Visual Toolkit for mobility hubs in #wintercities is now out!👇
It is created within a project in collaboration with Skellefteå municipality that aims to reduce dependency on individually owned cars in their mobility system.

Always fun to give a lecture about #futurestudies & #scenarios to our first year master students in KTH! Great discussions about problem (re)framing, visioning and driver analysis. Interestingly, many found the 'futures cone' very insightful.

This spring, we had an interesting experiment when a master student followed several project groups within our #transdisciplinary course in #KTH to get insights about #groupdynamics in sustainability problem-solving. Now her master thesis is available online! kth.diva-portal.org/smash/record...

"Följeforskning" – a new breed of transition research In Sweden, several researchers have worked closely together with cities and national innovation actors to support them in steering sustainability transitions by contributing to learning from practice,...

Check this concise and informative recap of a conversation we had in May about #följeforskning!👇 Three researchers share insights and reflect on their own experience of applying this research set-up in different contexts.

Busy start of the new study year in #KTH! It was a pleasure to attend a lecture of my former co-supervisor Karel Mulder who happened to visit Stockholm this week and found time to share with our students his rich research experience on #urban system transitions to #sustainability.

Our super intense #transdisciplinary course is almost over - great Final presentations today based on creative storytelling, connecting present, past and future when describing desirable future visions & pathways towards them. Many great ideas for urban transitions in Stockholm!

Exciting week in our course on #SystemInnovations! Yesterday project groups met with representatives of Stockholm municipality to hear about their work on climate neutrality, newly launched #SystemDemonstrator, and zero-emissions zone in the city center

#ProblemFraming

One week into our #TASI course! A lecture block ended with a great guest seminar about the #CommunityListening method by Agirre Centre #ALC. It was a pleasure to have them on board, great inspiration for students who will start working on their projects already next week.

Insightful podcast about #portfolioapproach and its adoption by the development sector.
Sheds light on how the approach is shaped by UNDP and their partners👇

Getting started with final preparations to the first since 2020 in person edition of our #transdisciplinary course! Expecting almost 40 students on board and collaboration with Stockholm municipality and their ambitious work on zero-emissions zone in the city.

Our Digital Collaborations Playbook is published! We developed and piloted it in 2021 and 2022. Finally found time to make it available for everyone interested in creating digital #facilitation techniques and spaces for #collaborative #learning.

Our article about #mobility system in the Nordic winter cities is now out👇
We are curious to hear from researchers and practitioners working on a similar topic and in a similar context!

Ending the week with a finalised piece about expert-based and context-driven imaginaries of sustainable mobility in #WinterCities. Looking forward to getting it released next week!

Interesting piece by Geoff Mulgan & Giulio Quaggiotto about spaces for information sensemaking and synthesis. Thought-provoking with regard to the space we (want to) have for creating experiences of complex problem-solving in university courses

My teaching week continued today with a lecture on #FutureStudies and #ScenarioPlanning for another master program in KTH. Took a chance to revisit Peter Schwartz's book👇

Just gave a newly developed lecture about #participation and #FutureStudies to urban planning students in KTH. The storyline around the challenge of concurrently facilitating for inclusivity and creativity worked quite well. Also covered basics of actor analysis and participatory methods.
