Today, the world’s prisons are home to circa 11.5 million people globally, an increase of more than 27% from 2000. Post-incarceration is a major challenge that reflects and contributes to the broader systemic issues within the criminal justice system, expressed by high recidivism rates. This interdisciplinary project proposes to reframe what spatial assemblies, edifices and policies are necessary on the path from prison, addressing the reentry process using housing as an infrastructure of care, incorporating an abolitionist epistemology. HOUSINGFREEDOM aims to: — Develop an innovative conceptualisation for studying housing in the context of post-incarceration, by conducting a far-reaching study of reentry processes. This approach is designed to overcome limitations in global scholarship on the nexus between postincarceration life and housing insecurity. — Map and study how can the narratives of the formerly incarcerated people and their housing struggle facing reentry inform practical interventions, shaping more just urban landscapes, under a ‘abolition by design’ approach, also offering incisive policy analysis to informs policy reform. — Provide a solid conceptual, methodological, and empirical foundation for carcerality studies across a vast range of disciplines, through a participatory approach. Methodologically, HOUSINGFREEDOM offers innovative design-based spatial and visual analysis strategies to reimagine spatial justice and decent housing for those who leave incarceration, along mapping and multimodal ethnography. A research-by-design approach to humanize (not criminalize) by design will engage a Community of Practice with those affected by carcerality, centred in Portugal, Belgium and Norway. Radical and ambitious, HOUSINGFREEDOM bridges the gap between these seemingly distinct fields, carcerality and housing instability, by shedding light on the cyclical nature of poverty, crime, and social exclusion.

 O projecto visa medir as expectativas de inflação de preços e salários, modelando os agentes como sendo capazes de escolher entre diferentes regras de expectativas com base no seu desempenho passado. O estudo será conduzido por um grupo de dois investigadores nucleares (especializados em macroeconomia e econometria) e vários consultores de bancos centrais (que ajudarão com pareceres sobre o estudo e divulgação dos resultados).

The BRIDGE project explores how digital inequalities in education are shaped by families’ access to digital cultural capital. Moving beyond the question of device availability, it examines how home environments, classroom dynamics, and teaching practices influence learning opportunities. Over 24 months, BRIDGE will engage 3,000 students and 100 teachers across 12 school clusters, testing whether innovative pedagogies can effectively narrow digital divides. Using a mixed-methods design, it combines surveys, digital skills assessments, interviews, and classroom observations to provide a multidimensional understanding of inclusion in digital education. The project compares standard, culturally responsive, and critical pedagogies through a randomized controlled trial, generating robust evidence on what works to promote equality. Its outcomes include tools for assessing digital engagement at home and in school, as well as evidence-based teaching guides designed to strengthen family participation and reduce digital skill gaps.

O objetivo do projeto consiste em identificar os processos e sistemas críticos entre entidades, e dentro das entidades quando necessário, que impliquem troca de informação sobre irregularidades em fundos europeus; capturar os modelos de interoperabilidade entre os sistemas ao nível funcional (dados e fluxos) e técnicos (técnicas de serviços de integração, middleware, controlo de rastreabilidade, formatos de estruturas); avaliar a adequação da arquitetura de integração entre sistemas e propor alterações, tendo em vista a melhoria na gestão dos dados de irregularidades e fraudes com fundos europeus.

Cidades Fragmentadas, programa/constelação interdisciplinar com sede no espaço independente de arquitetura, pesquisa e arte- c/arpa, conecta o centro e as periferias de Lisboa com o objetivo de abordar criticamente as hierarquias estabelecidas no espaço urbano contemporâneo. Integrando redes colaborativas de espaços nacionais e internacionais análogos, acolhe profissionais emergentes e consagrados. As atividades exploram a relação entre arquitetura expandida, arte, performance e práticas vernaculares subalternizadas, em diálogo com artistas do sul global e diásporas
