This study examines co-production in social science research, emphasizing tangible outputs beyond academic knowledge. It proposes evaluating co-production success by considering practical results and the role of material objects.
Area of Science:
- Social Sciences
- Research Methodology
Background:
- Co-production research involves collaboration between academic and non-academic actors.
- Existing literature debates the emancipatory potential and challenges of co-production, particularly regarding marginalized groups and participatory governance.
Purpose of the Study:
- To shift focus in co-production research from the collaborative process to the tangible outputs generated.
- To propose a framework for evaluating co-production success that includes practical outcomes and material considerations.
Main Methods:
- Case study of a pilot project developing support resources for new fathers using a co-production research design.
Main Results:
- The study highlights the dynamics and limitations inherent in the co-production process.
- It identifies practical, tangible outputs as crucial indicators of co-production success, extending beyond academic knowledge generation.
Conclusions:
- Co-production research should prioritize and critically assess its practical and material outcomes.
- Evaluating co-production requires considering the "what" (outputs) alongside the "how" (collaboration), incorporating objects and materiality.
