This toolkit offers a set of resources to support engagement in various dimensions of design research partnerships. It documents the methods and processes we employed, along with reflective insights gathered throughout our collaboration. Our goal is to provide a practical and research-informed guide for initiating and sustaining place-based partnerships. The materials presented here are grounded in our experiences and are intended to support both researchers and practitioners in co-constructing meaningful and contextually responsive collaborations.
This page will be updated regularly to reflect ongoing learning and refinement. We'd like to invite you to revisit this site often and hope that these resources serve as a valuable foundation for your own partnership work.
