The report titled “Perspectives on Equitable Co-Production” summarizes the findings and discussions from a workshop held in May 2022, which was part of a National Science Foundation-funded project. The project’s goal was to understand how equity is perceived in co-production processes within federally funded climate change programs and to develop a framework for equitable co-production. The workshop involved participants from various sectors, including research, government, non-governmental organizations, and community representatives. The discussions focused on three perspectives of equitable co-production: Ways of Knowing & Power, Participants & Interactions, and Science as Capacity Building. Each perspective highlighted different aspects of equity, such …
