Kaufmann, Ruth (2009). Multi- and Transdisciplinarity as a Challenge for Environmental Psychology (Symposium). In: Gutscher, Heinz; Mosler, Hans-Joachim; Meyer, Bertolt; Mischke, Stefan; Soland, Martin (eds.) 8th Biennial Conference on Environmental Psychology (p. 138). Lengerich: Pabst
Since 2008 the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) has been funding ten transdisciplinary research projects within the thematic focus ‘From Knowledge to Action - New Paths towards Sustainable Consumption’. A particular challenge which is faced with the programm is the task to build a bridge between individual activities and ecological and social framework conditions. Environmental psychologists are involved in half of the ten transdisciplinary projects. The symposium gives an insight into the new thematic focus and the variety of psychological contributions. The presentations will focus on the specific competence of psychology within the broader research focus of the transdisciplinary projects. An invited discussant will reflect on the role of psychology within the field of sustainable consumption and about challenges of transdisciplinary research in general.
