- But also take it that one step further – beyond the academic environment Let in outside influences into your science and acknowledge that there is also valuable knowledge outside the walls of your institute Look for ways in which you can develop socially robust knowledge and allow for cocreation of science. Helga Nowotny , Peter Scott and Michael T. Gibbons - Re-Thinking Science: Mode 2 in Societal Context (2003) “Science’s validity no longer determined solely, or predominantly, by narrowly circumscribed scientific communities but by much wider communities of engagement comprising knowledge producers, disseminators, traders and users.”
