Exciting Announcement: Publication in the International Journal of Human Sciences Research
I am thrilled to share our latest publication in the esteemed International Journal of Human Sciences Research. The paper « Trans-Disciplinary Communication in Collaborative Co-Design for Knowledge Sharing» is a collaborative effort with distinguished colleague Dr. James Lipuma (1st author). It’s an honor to be a part of this paper (Lipuma & León, 2024).
Paper Abstract:
This article examines the importance of Trans-disciplinary Communication (TDC) in the process of knowledge sharing when utilizing collaborative co-design (CCD) as a tool for large-scale collaborative change social innovation projects. The article begins with a description of CCD and some of the important frameworks like “Collaborative Infrastructure” and the “Collaborative Convergence Pyramid”. Next, the article discusses knowledge sharing in this context as an essential mechanism to effectively engage the participants. As the co-design process is initiated and the work progresses, several tools of TDC are essential such as listening, translation, and facilitation. Then the article presents how the tools of TDC allow for the effective CCD to progress and be led by the author. Finally, some practical, real-world examples of TDC in action for CCD will be shared. By illustrating practical, real-world examples of TDC in action for CCD, the article offers an insightful overview of this empowering process, not merely as a theoretical construct but as a dynamic and practical approach. This article underscores the innovative potential that TDC brings to knowledge creation and dissemination, making it an essential read for academics, practitioners, and policy-makers interested in collaboration, inclusivity, and transformative change.
