In this episode of Sci on the Fly, host Connie Bolte, current Executive Branch Fellow at the National Science Foundation, speaks with Dr. Angela Bednarek, who leads Pew Charitable Trusts' scientific advancement portfolio. Dr. Bednarek's AAAS STPF Fellowship at the U.S. Department of State revealed how researchers often failed to provide timely, relevant information to policymakers grappling with complex environmental issues. This experience led her to establish the Impact Funders Forum, a global collaborative that brings together funders across diverse fields to develop more effective strategies for supporting policy-relevant research. The conversation explores "engaged research," a collaborative approach that involves stakeholders throughout the entire research process, from co-developing research questions to ongoing implementation. Dr. Bednarek emphasizes a fundamental shift in researcher mindset: moving from "how can my research help" to "what challenges do decision-makers face, and how can I design research to address those specific needs." While these approaches aren't entirely new, there is growing recognition of their necessity for tackling complex societal challenges in an increasingly interconnected world.

Citizen science, in which researchers work alongside members of the public to collect or analyse data, brings multiple benefits, extending the capabilities of research teams and aiding public engagement. But there are still sceptics who question its validity as a research model. Find out why concerns are often misplaced and hear some of the ways enthusiastic amateurs have helped advance human knowledge. On the broader question of public impact, hear how universities could provide a framework that supports academics to carry out more community-engaged research, designed to serve the public good. On this episode, we talk to: Chris Lintott, professor of astrophysics at the University of Oxford, presenter on the BBC's The Sky at Night program, author and co-founder of citizen science platform Zooniverse. He explains how his interest in citizen science was sparked and why he believes it is such an effective model. Neeli Bendapudi, president of Penn State – Pennsylvania State University – discusses a new coalition of university leaders from across the US and Canada who are working with funders, government agencies and others to develop a roadmap for the future community-engaged, public-impact research.

For her Capstone, Claire designed learning modules focused on changing health outcomes for vulnerable adult populations through gardening. Through on-farm experiential learning, the workshop offers opportunities to access emotional, physical, mental and social well-being. This capstone project uses community-engaged research methods to inform business operating model recommendations for The Greenhouse Project (TGP), a historic 2.2-acre agricultural site in San Francisco. The project is envisioned as a model urban agriculture initiative, a collaborative and visionary hub for food production, education, connection, and environmental stewardship, and a site for broader intersections between various food systems actors, researchers, and policymakers. As a final project in the MSFS/MBA degree program, Claire Turner worked closely with organizers of the initiative to create a comprehensive feasibility study highlighting multiple models for how The Greenhouse Project can best achieve its social and environmental commitments while maintaining financial solvency. Her analysis and recommendations seek to demonstrate that an urban farm can be profitable, equity-focused, and sustainable by integrating social and environmental values into the business planning process.

My guest this week is Dr. Anthony Pinn. Dr. Pinn is the Agnes Cullen Arnold Professor of Humanities, the Professor of Religious Studies. the Founding Director of the Center for Engaged Research and Collaborative Learning Rice University, and the Director of Research of the Institute for Humanist Studies. Dr. Pinn has written a number of books on the intersection of humanism and race. In this episode, we discuss his book, When Colorblindness Isn't the Answer. I learned quite a lot from Dr. Pinn. Both about humanism and the experience of black humanists. Ultimately I was challenged to change my behavior, to “do my homework,” and to understand that it will take dismantling of white supremacy in humanist communities in order to gain the great benefits that diversity brings. "We can do better." This sort of fundamental change this movement towards diversity and equity means giving up comfort. You cannot request comfort and say you are interested in change Throughout his book(s) and in the interview Dr. Pinn calls on our humanist values to be less ignorant, to include black and other historically disparaged voices, and to develop our own vocabulary and ways of experiencing awe without calling on theistic traditions.

We had an interesting conversation with Dr. Balyasnikova, working at York University. In this special summer edition, we got together at Queen’s Park in Toronto to have a chat about educational gerontology and community-engaged research. From Russia to the USA and now Canada Dr. Balyasnikova describes educational gerontology as a subset of adult education and health science that tries to understand learning experiences at a later life. For example, how certain learning experiences affect ageing or how ageist stereotyping impacts learning in older adult learners. She is also interested in community-engaged research which is embedded in the idea of working together to inform research and we see participants as collaborators rather than subjects of study while we build relationships. She invites us to question whether participants need research or not and what form research needs to take. Additionally, Dr. Balyasnikova enjoys using various art and narrative methodologies to understand participants’ lived experiences. She uses arts-based research as possibilities for participants to express themselves and she engages participants with stories, theatre, drawing or painting as multimodal narratives. Bio Originally from Saint Petersburg Russia, Natalia Balyasnikova completed her Ph.D. in Language and Literacy Education at the University of British Columbia in July 2019. She explores older immigrants’ educational engagement in community-based settings. Using narrative ethnographic methods, she merges traditional ethnographic data generation with the facilitation of oral, written, and multimodal storytelling. With a focus on community-based research and public scholarship, Dr. Balyasnikova works with attention to the needs of the research partners and facilitates their vision for positive change. By analyzing learning that occurs at the intersection of ageing and immigration, her work suggests new pathways of community-based curriculum and educational policy in the context of changing demographics in Canada.

In this episode of Point of Inquiry, co-host Leighann Lord talks with professor, writer, and humanist Dr. Anthony Pinn. Lord and Pinn discuss the power and persistence of magical thinking as we face the current pandemic, the role of the church at a time when science is so important, Black Lives Matter and Pinn's opinion on struggle and progress, how women of color deal with oppression based on race, gender, and class, and the issue with respectability politics. Pinn also proposes the question, "What does our nontheistic perspective offer folks at this moment? What do we offer them beyond the critique of religion?" as we face the pandemic and the ever growing need for honest discussions and action on the issues of race. Anthony Pinn received his Ph.D. in the Study of Religion from Harvard University, and is currently the Agnes Cullen Arnold Professor of Humanities and Professor of Religious Studies at Rice University. He is also the Founding Director of The Center for Engaged Research and Collaborative Learning at Rice University, and Director of Research at The Institute for Humanist Studies. Among his many books are Writing God’s Obituary: How a Good Methodist Became a Better Atheist and When Colorblindness Isn’t the Answer: Humanism and the Challenge of Race.

Bruce talks with Dr. David Swindell from Arizona State University. Dr. Swindell discusses the connection of public administration to applied research within the community and the incentive structure within higher education to not engage in the work. He also discusses the challenge to overcome that incentive structure, why the structure should be reformed, and how he made the choice to ignore the system and do the work he felt matters.

This past fall we spoke with Mark Lubell, a professor in the Department of Environmental Science and Policy and the co-director of the Center for Environmental Policy and Behavior (CEPB) at the University of California, Davis. We spoke about Mark's interdisciplinary engagements at his institution, the value of doing used-based research, the ecology of games framework that he has pioneered, and how tools like this are needed to capture complex social interactions in real-world policy environments. Mark's website: http://www.des.ucdavis.edu/faculty/lubell/ CEPB website: https://environmentalpolicy.ucdavis.edu/ Correction: In discussing the concept of polycentricity, Michael mentions Rebecca Gruby as being from the University of Colorado Boulder, but Dr. Gruby is a professor at Colorado State University (https://sites.warnercnr.colostate.edu/rebeccagruby/)

Today, I sit down with Allison Karpyn to learn about partnering with the community in research. Effect tools and strategies are discussed, as well as the correct approach a researcher should take when initiating contact with the community. Enjoy and for more information or questions, email Dr. Karpyn at karpyn@udel.edu.

Entwicklungsforschung befasst sich disziplin- sowie grenzübergreifend mit Lösungen für globale Ungleichheitsverhältnisse. Im Rahmen von APPEAR, dem Hochschulkooperationsprogramm der Österreichischen Entwicklungszusammenarbeit, suchen Wissenschaftler/innen und NGOs im Projekt „Rooting Development in the Palestinian Context“ (ROOTDEVPAL) mittels partizipativer Forschung nach Lösungen für die Verbesserung der Lebensbedingungen in den besetzten Gebieten und in der palästinensischen Diaspora im Libanon und in Jordanien. Studieren und Forschen ist freilich in der „kleinen Kolonie Israels“ – wie einige zynisch sagen – sowie in den Flüchtlingslagern außerhalb ein Ausnahmezustand.Umso beachtlicher ist es, dass in Wien die Summerschool mit dem Titel „Critical Perspectives and Engaged Research in the Palestinian Context“ im Rahmen des Projekts abgehalten wurde und sich Forscher/innen aus vier Ländern trafen, um die große Frage zu diskutieren, welches und wessen Wissen neue Alternativen für ein menschenwürdiges Zusammenleben in Palästina „gebären“ kann. Welt im Ohr war vor Ort und zusätzlich zu den Interviews der Teilnehmenden steht uns der Koordinator des Projekts Helmut Krieger Rede und Antwort auf Fragen wie: Hat Wissensproduktion einen Einfluss auf Friedensprozesse?Gestaltung und Moderation: Maiada Hadaia (Verantwortlich für den Sendungsinhalt)Am Podium und in Interviews: Ass.

According to atheism, God does not exist. But religions have traditionally done much more than simply proclaim God's existence: they have provided communities, promoted the arts, handed down moral guidance, and so on. Can atheism, or perhaps humanism, replicate these roles? Anthony Pinn grew up as a devout Methodist, but became a humanist when he felt that religion wasn't really helping the communities that he cared about. Today he is a professor of religion who works to bring together atheism and the black community. We talk about humanism, identity politics, and the way forward.

We’re slowly recovering from the last few weeks. It must have something to do with the eclipse. Matt’s family is travelling so that means he can eat, sleep and podcast. Phil is back from a short trip to Montreal that involved a grilled cheese. Before getting on with our 25th episode, we send out some special messages and get into our podcasting friends’ top 5 baseball movie list. Public Scholarship & Engaged Research (13:13) We trace the concept of public sociology, or public scholarship at large, by assessing the ongoing relevance of Michael Burawoy’s call to action during his 2004 American Sociological Association (ASA) Presidential address. From his typology of practices, to his insistence that public scholarship requires a particular political standpoint, we review and critique some of Burawoy’s 11 theses. Is his call to sharpen the axe still relevant today? Which public or publics are included/excluded, and what role do researchers play at defining those boundaries? Can something like Nancy Fraser’s concept of counterpublic help the program of public scholarship reconcile its different audiences? We also consider a few of the potential tensions social media brings to public scholarship, offering our thoughts on the delicate balancing act that online forums and communities can entail.  Suggested Reading: Michael Burawoy ‘For Public Sociology’: http://burawoy.berkeley.edu/Public%20Sociology,%20Live/Burawoy.pdf Rob Borofsky ‘Why A Public Anthropology’: http://www.publicanthropology.org/WaPA/chapter1.pdf Charles R.
