Our values: co-creation, equality and diversity
INES provides an open platform for transdisciplinary, impact-oriented collaboration between teaching, research and practice. A key quality for us is working together on an equal footing. We aim to create a working environment in which everyone involved feels valued, guided by the → mission statement of the university.
In co-creative processes shaped by mutual, partnership-based exchange of knowledge, ideas and experience from both science and practice, HNEE researchers and students develop → sustainability solutions together with practitioners. The results benefit all involved – a genuine win-win!
Transdisciplinary research, in which non-scientific partners are closely involved in the development of research questions and the research process, is particularly relevant for transformation-oriented approaches in the agricultural, food and nutritional sciences.
