In the week from 5 to 9 June, Tamara Schnell took part in the STRN/NEST Method School in Winterthur (Switzerland). She was one of around 28 young researchers from all over the world who came together to discuss the various methodologies and methods of transition research. The event was organised by representatives of the STRN and NEST research networks, which aim to promote exchange between young and established researchers.

"Being able to take part in the Method School was a very special experience for me. On the one hand, meeting the scientists whose papers and contributions I work with every day. Learning from these people and their experiences and being able to discuss my open questions with them gave me a lot of impetus for my work and research. But also the exchange with other young scientists and PhD students from different countries. I am really grateful for every input and every conversation - during the presentations, at lunch or over a drink in the evening, after we had spent 9-10 hours on the topics of sustainable transitions and there was still something to talk about." - Tamara Schnell
