It first provided an understanding of transdisciplinary research based on the literature.
Ecohealth, as represented by the IAEH, strives for sustainable health of people, animals, and ecosystems by promoting discovery and understanding through transdisciplinary action-research.
Based on a transdisciplinary and common sense based understanding, a process is traceable, means one can follow, what has been done and how a process came to its results.
Evoecotoxicology, as a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach, can enhance our understanding of evolution, including the phylogenetic significance of differences in susceptibility/resistance to physicochemical agents in different organisms.
The extent to which the participants in this transdisciplinary endeavour manage to create shared understandings will be a critical factor in determining their eventual success.
Understanding and imagining futures needs transdisciplinary inquiry; it calls for creativeness and freedom from prejudice.
Despite the generally accepted importance of the institutional context for understanding the unfolding of participatory and transdisciplinary research projects, surprisingly little research has actually looked into its role in greater detail.
Here, evoecotoxicology is introduced as a multidisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach that can contribute to a better understanding of evolutionary history, as well as to the susceptibility/resistance features of living organisms to physicochemical agents.
Soils must be understood from a transdisciplinary perspective, integrating biophysical, social, economic and political understandings.
The discussion illustrates how we used inter- and transdisciplinary research to overcome limitations and to further our understanding of the interlinked ecological, social and economic processes in EGS studies.
