Atergang i arbete: ett internationellt samproduktionsprojekt

Book Chapter

Publication

This chapter illustrates how the conditions for international, co-produced research can be made possible through an international education program at research level. The purpose of the joint collaborative project, which includes authors from Sweden, Canada, Australia and Belgium, demonstrates in this chapter, how to increase dissemination of knowledge by working together. By co-producing a text, based on the authors' individual studies, conducted in various welfare contexts, new knowledge can be created and raise more research questions in an area that was more or less invisible in the literature. An important prerequisite for co-producing research results has been the education program 'Work Disability Prevention CIHR Strategic Training Program'. It is an education program that is part of a common network that the authors participated in, based on international education for postgraduate students, postdocs and younger researchers, who have over 30 senior researchers connected to the network. The chapter begins with a description of the joint education program and the network. Furthermore, the results of co-production will be illustrated by a synthesis of the authors' individual research studies that they co-produced about the role of employees in a sick leave process. The chapter concludes with a discussion about what the profits and challenges of co-production in international research can be.
