    Abstract

    In the context of the ongoing debate between academic research and practitioner action, this article, from a supply side perspective, explores the different expressions of these debates -- the relevance debate and the epistemological debate. It points to several ways forward -- collaboration between academics and practitioners and forms of research which integrate action and knowledge creation. Both these ways are supported by an integrated form of research and action built around three audiences: first, second and third person.
