Join our 4th CoAct hangout 2022 – Practices to overcome false representation in participatory processes

On August 25 we will meet for the 4th out of 5 hangouts. This time we will discuss what is required to fully open the black-box of participation and overcome the common practice of false representation. 

“It is important to differentiate levels of participation, acknowledge that participation in international collaboration is often characterised by false representation since it is like a black box if people on the ground do not have access to the real knowledge of the project. We need to work towards opening this black-box in order to truly speak about participation with people from the margins.”

Join us for a vibrant discussion!

The Global Innovation Gathering is a consortium member of the Horizon 2020 project ‘CoAct – Co-Creating a Citizen Social Science Approach’. Within CoAct, one of our goals is to foster a critical debate, addressing what Co-Creation, what inclusive approaches, and what science should look like when accounting for multiple voices, needs, and traditions from all around the world.

Throughout the year we are going to host five hangouts discussing central topics the community identified. You can read more here. 

These hangouts accompany a process of co-writing that brings together all our critical understandings to inclusive Citizen Social Science from a gloCal perspective. Would you like to become a co-author? Please reach out to us via [email protected]
