Research in the midst of society<\/h1>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Co-designing solutions for complex, human-centred challenges: it’s a wonderful way to bring research closer to people and society. But setting up and coordinating such a participatory process is quite complicated. How do you reconcile the unpredictability of a co-creative process with, for example, achieving enough publications? 8D helps researchers to integrate a design approach into their research<\/a>, with an eye for both academic and societal impact. \n \n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Data Collection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Data collection through a design process actively engages participants and yields insights that are difficult to achieve through traditional methods, such as a questionnaire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Dissemination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Participatory research ensures that you reach your target groups early on; this increases the likelihood of long-term implementation of the results. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
