The research group has been committed to the development of research in and on Practical Knowledge as a way of both articulating the foundations of the field of studies in Practical Knowledge, as well as applying this research perspective in the context of specific practices and professions.
The research group Theory of Practical Knowledge was established in 2013 with the aim of promoting research on Practical Knowledge. The research group has, for the most part, been based within the Centre for Practical Knowledge (CPK), although it also includes members from outside the CPK, from other faculties at Nord University, and from external institutions.
