Collaboration between research and advisory services for more efficient knowledge development in the green sector

Purpose and goal

The project has developed synergies between research on collaboration and a competence centre for advisory services in the green sector. Governance theory has been used to understand collaboration. The platform RådNu has been established, published newsletters and podcast sections, built collaborations and found resources for this. Skills development has been carried out for a large number of advisers and other actors. Collaboration processes have been facilitated, and we have shared experiences and provided input concerning how to build collaboration for universities.

Expected results and effects

Collaboration and its challenges have been studied with new concepts. The HEI has received input on several levels in how collaboration should be developed and experiences have been shared with other HEIs and actors in the green sector. Co-production has taken place with actors in the green sector, especially agricultural advisers. A variety of collaboration processes in society have been facilitated so that knowledge is developed. A collaborative platform has been established where work on counseling methodology will continue.

Planned approach and implementation

The project was carried out with a research component that was combined with the practice of collaboration through the collaborative platform RådNu. The research has studied RådNu and other collaborative initiatives in the green sector and has applied a governance perspective on how collaboration is organized and practiced. Experience has been forwarded to actors within the knowledge system and other educational institutions. Collaborative processes have been facilitated and up to 100 advisers have developed competence in counseling methodology.
