“…These requirements can privilege the involvement of people and organizations with higher levels of income, education, and social capital, giving them greater influence. Exclusion can also result from any number of other factors, such as limited access to information, lack of recognition of a group's experiences and credibility, or marginalization within the process of generating social meaning (Castán Broto et al., 2022). As such, co‐production processes may increase imbalances of power through the selective participation of individuals and organizations in decision‐making (Turnhout et al., 2020).…”

Unlike basic science, studies conducted for the purpose of societal decision-making require the involvement of broad publics (Gibbons, 2000). The U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP), mandated by Congress in 1990 to provide decision-relevant climate science, spurred the establishment of some of the longest-running and most geographically diverse programs to conduct these types of applied research. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Climate Adaptation Partnerships (CAP), Department of the Interior (DOI) Climate Adaptation Science Centers (CASCs), and U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Climate Hubs (Pulwarty et al., 2009; USGCRP, 2023) represent some of the most prominent examples. These federal programs may shed light on an issue that is increasingly recognized as a significant challenge to decision-relevant scientific research: the involvement of people who historically have been underserved by government programs and/ or have experienced discrimination and exclusion (Early & Kotzebue, 2021). Public administration and political science scholars have long warned that conditions of social inequity and inequality may worsen if the quality of governance and public services is dependent on community participation (Einstein et al., 2019(Einstein et al., , 2022Rosentraub & Sharp, 1981). When the voices of marginalized groups are unlikely to be heard and to influence policy

“…It involves sharing responsibilities, decision-making, and resources to create more effective and sustainable outcomes over time. Accordingly, co-production becomes essential when citizens lack access to basic services and safe environments, for instance, when local governments do not cope with local infrastructure demands (Castán Broto et al, 2022). Co-production differs from other engagement processes such as co-design and participation.…”

“…It goes beyond simply gathering input and seeks to involve them in the entire process, from problem identification to implementation and management. Against this background, we understand co-production as an approach or strategy for involving communities in the planning and decision-making processes that affect their lives and livelihoods (Castán Broto et al, 2022).…”

Focusing on Actors, Scaling-Up, and Networks to Understand Co-Production Practices: Reporting From Berlin and Santiago

In different policy agendas, such as the New Urban Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals, co-production is introduced as a desirable urban planning practice to validate the engagement and inclusion of diverse actors/networks. Nevertheless, some scholars argue (e.g., Watson, Robinson) that the Western planning approach faces difficulties incorporating rationalities beyond the Global North–South division. In this context based on the research project DFG-KOPRO Int for the German Research Foundation on Chilean and German cases and the local context, this article seeks to explore how local groups are undertaking co-production, which means of legitimacy are used, and which socio-spatial results develop. In doing so, the research focuses firstly on the negotiation processes (governance) between stakeholders by undertaking network analysis and, secondly, on understanding the impulse for urban development by analysing the project’s socio-spatial material patterns. Chile’s neoliberal context and the case studies showcase diverse cooperative forms that try to close governance gaps within strong political struggles. In the German context, actors from different areas, such as cultural institutions, universities, and private actors undertake diverse mandates for testing regulatory, persuasive, or financial instruments. As different as local realities are, the overall results show that co-production occurs mostly in highly contested fields such as housing projects and highlights a three-part constellation of actors—state, private, and civil society—in urban development. However, negotiation processes take place, ranging from conflictive to cooperative. Hence, co-production challenges prevailing social and political structures by providing an arena for new forms of collective and pluralistic governance.

“…Las ciencias sociales con el concepto de derecho a la ciudad (Harvey, 2018;Lefebvre, 1979) y del lugar/no-lugar (Augé, 2009) han construido una retórica convincente y contundente que el mundo de la arquitectura ha reconocido central en el discurso sobre el diseño, y se ha convertido en un puente imprescindible con la filosofía estética. En otras investigaciones (De Manuel Jerez, 2010;Di Virgilio et al, 2014;Pelli, 2010) la producción social del hábitat parece abrir un espacio de contacto entre la disciplina de hacer lugar y ciudad (Cruz Cabrera et al, 2016;Granata, 2021), la co-producción del entorno urbano (Castán Broto et al, 2022; Neves Álves, 2018) y el diseño urbano y arquitectónico.…”

La producción del entorno urbano en América Latina es un tema común a muchas disciplinas y es objeto de continua investigación. La producción académica latinoamericana acerca del espacio urbano ha demostrado una profunda y sólida capacidad de reconstruir los procesos -a menudo disputados y conflictivos- de los mecanismos de producción de entornos urbanos. Sin embargo, no obstante una profunda producción teórica sobre el sistema de producción espacial latinoamericano, queda mucho por estudiar sobre los efectos físicos que tales mecanismos generan en el territorio, cuáles transformaciones se producen, y cuanto estas generan espacios adecuados para los habitantes y coherentes con su genius loci. El artículo analiza un caso estudio en la ciudad de Quito y pretende entender en qué medida los elementos urbano-arquitectónicos contribuyen a la producción de un entorno urbano apropiado o -al contrario- generan espacios débiles e inadecuados al dinamismo socio-espacial. Esta investigación presenta una abordaje empírico y se estructura a través de una metodología mixta, usando datos cuantitativos y espaciales de primera y segunda mano, y métodos cualitativos de procesamiento e interpretación de las informaciones levantadas. Los resultados revelan un escenario urbano con calidad discontinua, y con evidentes límites espaciales acerca de la escala humana.
