Abstract:
This paper draws on systems thinking and selected case studies to explore how ‘prac-ademic’ partnerships can create impact in real-world settings. The paper argues that knowledge co-generation partnerships are sub-systems of the complex systems in which research is being undertaken and that governance arrangements are central to enabling partners to work together more effectively to achieve research impact. Reflecting on two successful knowledge co-generation case examples, three distinct areas are identified that need to be understood from a systems perspective to enable future success. These are the importance of (1) developing a clear framing and shared purpose; (2) developing flexibility in contracting that enables new deliverables to emerge; and (3) the project team comprising bilingual team members who understand the contextual demands of both academia and practice. These elements will facilitate the co-generation of knowledge through prac-ademic partnerships and become a path to creating research impact.
