Research communities nothing new
![Page 4: Expanding the Academic Research Community: Building Bridges into Society with the Internet](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022051817/5483febab4af9faf0d8b4a49/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
What are communities?
Communities Strong, lasting interactions
Ties between members
“Sense of community”
Common space
Common space Physical/digital
Spectrum of communicative & collaborative functionalities
(“from face-to-face to Facebook”)
“Ecosystems” of people and technologies
Great diversity

Communities connect
• Communities increasingly important as form of
collaboration and organization
• They break down barriers and connect– Cultures, ways of thinking and working
– Goals
– Organizations and departments
– Work and communication processes
– Information systems and tools

Collaborative communities
Communities of interest, practice
Collaborative communities
Common goals
Effective/efficient communication
Executing/coordinating work
Community governance: roles and processes

• Formulating goals and characteristics of a new community
• Aligning community with organizational goals and related
communities
• Creating, configuring, and maintaining "community spaces“
(physical and online)
• Creating (initial) content
• Defining and populating required roles
• Activating members
• Facilitating discussions
• Resolving conflicts
• Evaluating community activities
• Cancelling a (sub)communtiy
Community management not trivial

Conclusions
• Research process in transition. Redefinition of
concepts: academic, fundamental, applied research
• Community-based research is a cornerstone
• Research communities 2.0: new forms of – collaboration
– stakeholder roles
– (use of) digital and physical technologies
• Developing socio-technical collaboration systems
does not happen “just like that”…
