The value of knowledge brokering is gaining recognition. NESP knowledge brokers sought to explore the gaps in the understanding of the diverse practices knowledge brokers engage in.
This is the output of a NESP Climate Systems Hub workshop in October 2024. Over 50 participants attended, from a range of organisations including the Australian Climate Service (ACS), CSIRO, the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM), the ARC Centre of Excellence for the Weather of the 21st Century, the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes, and other NESP Hubs.
Workshop participants ranged from researchers, knowledge brokers, research and project managers, policy officers, data and service providers and tool developers. Knowledge broker expert Dr Christopher Cvitanovic shared his experience with knowledge brokering as a profession to guide the discussion.
