Abstract
[Abstract]
The emergence of occupational science in non-English speaking countries
is frequently hampered by diverse barriers to global collaboration,
knowledge dissemination, and inclusion in international dialogue.
Epistemological, cultural, and institutional resources may explain these
barriers, yet these have not been explored within the discipline. This
paper discusses three main issues and three priorities for action put
forward by participants during sessions held at two separate,
international occupational science conferences. The sessions aimed to
engage the audience in critical reflexivity and dialogue around the
challenges present when non-English speaking countries attempt to
develop occupational science scholarship and possible ways to support
global collaboration. To stimulate discussion, we used a participatory
methodology, ‘Metaplan’. The sessions included a statements exercise,
reflections presented by the authors, individual reflexivity, and small
group debate. The findings are structured as a reflexive dialogue where
participants’ voices, theory, and the authors’ reflections are interwoven
to enrich discussion of the issues participants identified and priorities for
action. This paper contributes to decolonizing the development of
occupational science and promoting an international dialogue that is
open to diverse worldviews, by drawing attention to the visible and
invisible barriers that limit collaboration and inclusion of the diverse
ways in which occupation is understood and enacted worldwide
