Anna Melnyk Receives Shared Green Societies Award for Early-Career Researchers
We are pleased to share that Anna Melnyk has received a Shared Green Societies Award for Early-Career Researchers in Social Sciences and Humanities, in the category Mutual Knowledge Flows.
The Shared Green Societies Awards recognise early-career researchers whose work contributes to more inclusive, just, and sustainable green transitions. The category Mutual Knowledge Flows highlights research that fosters reciprocal exchange between different forms of knowledge, including academic, policy, and societal perspectives.
The award was presented as part of the Shared Green Deal initiative. More information about the award and the other recipients can be found on the official announcement page.
“Receiving the Shared Green Societies Research Award is a meaningful validation of collective and often invisible academic labour, as well as an acknowledgment of an approach to energy transition research that promotes mutual knowledge flows. Transdisciplinary work based on co-creation and reciprocal learning often remains undervalued in academic environments that prioritise speed and output. I am therefore very glad to see the Shared Green Societies jury affirm a way of working grounded in mutual learning across projects rather than individual achievement, and in building bridges between science, policy, and society – worlds that are too often kept apart.”
– Anna Melnyk
We congratulate Anna on this recognition!
