Knowledge Cooperation

Jump to:

Knowledge cooperation is becoming increasingly important, especially in the context of developing pathways to sustainability. The cluster has a particular interest in the role of transnational knowledge actors and knowledge communities in researching and shaping global change. For example, how can new platforms be used in teaching and knowledge diffusion to contribute to achieving the 2030 Agenda? This includes formulating practical recommendations for a sustainable futures in transnational networks too, such as the Managing Global Governance (MGG) programme and the Shaping Futures – African-European Network on Development and Sustainability at the German Institute of Development and Sustainability (IDOS) or the T20Africa group. The conditions for successful transformative research are also explored. This involves conceptually addressing the role of think tanks in a German and international context, as well as sharing experiences of different platforms with partner institutions around the world. As a knowledge institution, IDOS is also an applied research institute and development policy actor for this topic.
