Knowledge for Urban Systems Transformation (KUST) Framework. The transdisciplinary process participants focused on themes that could directly influence future outcomes (via collaborative direction-setting, governance/decision-making and enabling processes: Theme A); supported by knowledge to overcome static views of urban systems, and policy, practice and research siloes (via broader, interconnected and dynamic urban systems view: Themes B, C, D), and access to enhanced knowledge system capabilities (Theme E). Those involved in Theme A processes need to recognise they are themselves also part of the urban systems subject to change (e.g. in Social and Institutional process sub-themes in Theme B2). (See also “Systems-wide frameworks as boundary objects” section in Discusssion for KUST connection to other recent studies)
