Knowledge Transfer – Create
Over many years, systematic processes have been developed at the UFZ to synthesise scientific results from different disciplines with practical knowledge. As a result, no fewer than 21 different knowledge synthesis methods are available and can be used for political processes in order to establish efficient stakeholder-science interfaces with our partners.
