Sociale Wetenschappen

Onderzoeksnetwerken

"If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants."

Waarom netwerken?

Essentieel voor de vooruitgang van de wetenschap is de (inter)nationale samenwerking in interdisciplinaire en multidisciplinaire netwerken met andere academici, niet-academische organisaties en verschillende actoren in de samenleving. Vaak gebeurt dit in tijdelijke consortia of projecten, andere keren is deze samenwerking meer geformaliseerd.
