The Cross-Pollination Approach

Researchers in the School of Engineering and Innovation published a collaborative paper reporting insights from their work supporting co-design and cross-sector collaboration in the context of place-making. They report on a creative method developed and used in their action research projects and reflect on the conditions that support civic design initiatives to emerge and grow.

The paper, authored by Katerina Alexiou, Vera Hale, and Theo Zamenopoulos, with Sophia de Sousa from The Glass-House Community Led Design, is available Open Access from She-Ji: The Journal of Design, Economics, and Innovation, and the Open University Open Research Online (ORO) repository.
