When research and policy development interact, it can take a number of forms. This article provides insights from a very extensive cooperation in which the researcher took up a part-time position within the civil service. The article chronicles the cooperation and inductively presents a number of competing demands in this type of cooperation, as they appeared in the process. Finally, the article discusses what can be learned by practitioners and researchers who consider entering similar extensive cooperation.
