The tdAcademy Brief Reflection Guide #2 supports transdisciplinary research teams in aligning formats and methods with specific inner, outer, and spatial-temporal contexts. It provides open-ended questions for diagnosing challenges and identifying concrete actions at the individual, project, and institutional levels. Particular attention is given to inclusion, trust, adaptability, hierarchical structures, and equitable participation. The guide promotes systematic reflection, shared learning, and context-sensitive research design.
