Network analysis Positions of
involvement Which actors involved? How can we connect? Which positions do
they take? Which key players are

Level of structureFreedom to actConnections to maintain trust
The FAN approach in 5 statements
Initiatives of farmers are a good starting point for sustainable innovations

Knowledge workers as temporary free actors can do the job
Subject matter knowledge is important for facilitators in the role of free actor
Appropriate tools and a structure for reflection are necessary for subject matter specialists as free actors
