Call for contributions With the aim of highlighting and encouraging the crossing of disciplinary boundaries, we invite Researchers across Coventry University to share their transdisciplinary/ interdisciplinary methodologies during the 2022 CU Research Hootenanny Week. The increasing complexity of real world problems calls for more interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approaches to research to create effective and sustainable solutions. In such endeavours, innovative use of disciplinary knowledge and methodologies create new knowledge and practical solutions. In this sense, exchange of knowledge, expertise and language are crucial for effective outcome in both inter and transdisciplinary research. With this Transdisciplinary Methodologies event, we aim to create a space to facilitate exchange of expertise and ideas for future collaboration, and creation of new areas of research.
