“…We see a resemblance between productive complicity as a mode of partnering and others’ suggestions for improving TEK research, such as coproduction and the multiple evidence base approach (Hill et al, 2020; Malmer et al, 2020; Matuk et al, 2020; Villagómez-Reséndiz, 2020; Wheeler et al, 2020), coexistence (Buell et al, 2020), parallel knowledge (Davies et al, 2020), two-eyed seeing (Hall et al, 2021), knowledge coordination (Weiskopf, 2020), constructive engagement (Shackeroff and Campbell, 2007), indigenous-led research (Eckert et al, 2020) and adopting a problem-focused approach (Cebrián-Piqueras et al, 2020; Chua et al, 2020; Hastings et al, 2020; McElwee et al, 2020b; Samuel-Nakamura, 2020). Where productive complicity differs from these approaches is by focusing attention on the dynamic, political and temporally-situated nature of any TEK collaboration.…”
