<br>7. Applied Interdisciplinary Sustainable Transitions Research

<br>
<br>Academic scholars examining sustainable transitions are increasingly
<br>working across disciplines and professions, in order to address complex and
<br>multidimensional issues facing contemporary societies and their
<br>infrastructures. The turn to interdisciplinary research is seemingly at
<br>home within multidisciplinary research institutes and research projects,
<br>where industry partnerships and innovation strategies are high upon the
<br>agenda. They are locations where STS intervenes and tries to be relevant in
<br>situations at hand. Focusing on sustainable transitions this panel examines
<br>the challenges of solution centered applications. Inspired by an interest
<br>in the production of scientific knowledge and its use in interdisciplinary
<br>research, we want to create a space for practitioners and scholars to
<br>reflect upon their own concepts and practices when working in
<br>interdisciplinary teams. The panel seeks presentations that scope, for
<br>example: what type of knowledge is required by the ‘end users’ of
<br>anthropological or sociological skills? What ethnographic locations are
<br>found within interdisciplinary collaborations? How do we get to know the
<br>end user needs and does problem solving challenge STS’s own premises? Or is
<br>it rising to the challenge of solving problems posed by other disciplines
<br>and engaging in their critical debates? Which actors do we want to speak
<br>and act with and which want to speak and act with us? We welcome
<br>presentations from different geographical and research contexts,
<br>highlighting the diversity of engagement between disciplines, and
<br>professional groups involved in sustainable transitions.
