Target Audience: PGR and academic staff

This workshop has been developed by the Centre for Sustainable Development and aims to support researchers examine how their research can benefit from inter and transdisciplinary approaches.

During a live online session, participants will first hear from experts on the principles of inter and transdisciplinary research.
