and experience?

Collaboration among academic and non-academic participants, including decision-makers of all kinds, is fundamental
to TDR approaches. Given the complexity of societal challenges, solutions require inclusion of a broad base of different
kinds of knowledge, expertise and perspectives. TDR is a way to harness the experience and knowledge from a variety of
academic and non-academic sources.
You will find a wealth of interactive practices (see Tools section), which are designed to democratize knowledge production
and to honor different contributions to projects and efforts. These practices free participants from traditional expectations
and positions, and instead aid the elicitation of diverse insights and the emergence of shared understanding or visions. The
collection of activities describe in detail how to use the practices and when each might be most useful. Let it inspire you to
apply such group activities to TD content.
