co producing Knowledge a Demand led prosperity focused research agenda with forest and farm producer organisations
Environmental Science & Policy, 2021Co-Authors: Jack Covey, Duncan Macqueen, Anna Bolin, Xiaoting Hou JonesAbstract:Abstract Gaps in Forest and Farm Producer Organisations’ (FFPOs) Knowledge, which are being widened by local and global uncertainties, undermine FFPOs’ pursuit of broad conceptions of prosperity. As current methods of Knowledge generation face several challenges, we use a Knowledge Demand survey from 41 FFPOs in six countries to show how co-productive methodologies can facilitate FFPOs delivery of prosperity. Our analysis of the Knowledge Demand survey shows how FFPOs’ diversity of aims, Knowledge needs, and capacities at different tiers of organisation, are well suited to co-productive methodologies. We conclude with eight-steps for co-producing Knowledge with FFPOs: (1) collaborative exchange to identify areas of interest; (2) co-commitment to a topic; (3) researcher-led literature search for context; (4) FFPO-documented case studies; (5) co-learning event to exchange and integrate findings; (6) production of initial Knowledge product; (7) testing of initial Knowledge product; and (8) final co-learning event to refine Knowledge product prior to dissemination.

weak Knowledge Demand in the south learning divides and innovation policies
Science and Public Policy, 2010Co-Authors: Rodrigo Arocena, Judith SutzAbstract:Many developing countries confront serious problems in benefitting from the advancement of Knowledge; a main difficulty being to expand the learning processes. Related policies have been jeopardized by weak market Demand for Knowledge. Both supply-side and Demand-side science and technology and innovation policies have thus been below expectations. This paper argues that to reverse this long trend, current policies can profitably be complemented by a set of innovation policies conceived as social policies, which can simultaneously answer a strong social Demand for Knowledge and expand endogenous innovative capabilities.

Tacit Knowledge, Innovation and Economic Geography
Urban Stud, 2002Co-Authors: Jeremy R. L. HowellsAbstract:The aim of this paper is to outline the importance of tacit Knowledge in the innovation process and to highlight the way that geographical location not only influences the relationship between Knowledge and innovative activity, but also affects the way that such interaction influences the geography of innovation and economic activity. After a discussion about the nature of Knowledge, the paper explores the relationship that exists between Knowledge and geography. The paper then reviews, using as an analytical lens, the growing body of literature on Knowledge spillovers which affirm the importance of geography. However, the discussion then seeks to outline some crucial gaps that remain in our conceptualisation of the Knowledge spillover and transfer process. The paper then highlights the neglected role of Knowledge Demand and consumption in a spatial context, before concluding with a review of areas for future research.
