Eff ective Practitioner–Scholar Relationships: Lessons from a Coproduction Partnership
Abstract: Th is article presents a continuum of possible coproduction arrangements between scholars and practitioners and suggests that greater engagement is necessary to bridge the commonly cited problems that create the gap between research and practice. Refl ections on an Australian case of a major public sector coproduction partnership, the highest degree of interaction on the continuum, are used to argue that successful engagement between practitioners and scholars is possible, while also recognizing the diffi culties inherent in this process. Th e benefi ts and challenges of this partnership are presented, as well as critical factors that drive eff ective relationships. Lessons are drawn for the development of future coproduction partnerships, including the importance of recognizing that both scholars and practitioners are, in
fact, researchers.
