Research partnerships: The ARUC-ES and RQRP-ES model

The University-Community Research Alliance in Social Economy (ARUC-ES from its French acronym) and the Quebec Research Partnership Network in Social Economy (RQRP-ES) are research partnership centres authoring this document in which they discuss the characteristics and conditions that facilitate research partnerships in social economy in terms of working methods, circulation and transfers of research-based knowledge. The aim of the present document is to share the experience of the Alliance and the Reseau with those who are interested in research practices carried out in partnership, and to promote university research for practitioners.
