A companion guide for facilitating and activating concepts in Producing Shared Understanding book (2020) released January 28, 2024
Shared Understanding is defined as a transdisciplinary creative mental model and reflective practice towards informed conversation and action, that can be adapted towards meaningful collaboration between diverse stakeholders that share different paradigms. Shared understanding, in theory and practice, goes beyond finding a shared or similar narrative around an issue or project, towards facilitating mutual understanding and navigation of the inevitable conflicting differences in worldviews. The model aims to guide and enable reflective and creative processes, such as brain trusts at the intersections, for incubating and crafting transdisciplinary innovations towards social sustainability and regeneration efforts.
