Este projeto surge da necessidade de reavaliar a crescente desconexão entre os habitats humanos e o mundo natural. O objetivo é reverter esta tendência através de uma abordagem inovadora que combina a promoção de biomas, a bioconstrução e a robótica colaborativa para a construção de edifícios regenerativos e resilientes. A metodologia propõe o desenvolvimento de software capaz de gerar modelos arquitetónicos adaptáveis, integrando-os no contexto natural, maximizando a eficiência energética e promovendo a biodiversidade.

The market uptake of RES depends on a complex combination of political, geographical, economic, social and cultural factors that are specifically intertwined in each locality. In addition, the acceptance and willingness of directly affected stakeholders to support the deployment of RES depends on the perceived fairness about how the decisions are made (procedural justice) and how the benefits are shared (distributive justice). POWERUP adopts a holistic approach towards the market uptake of RES for electricity and provides a set of open source tools and methodologies addressing all these factors, tailoring the RES projects to the local conditions and increaseing their acceptability and market uptake. The tools include a GIS-based decision support tool for initial feasibility assessment, a business model toolkit for reconciling stakeholder requirements and producing equitable business models, and a co-creation toolkit for engaging the stakeholders in co-design of a RES project that is reproducible and tailored to the local needs and conditions. The tools are supported by a social acceptability strategy for RES that provides guidance for considering all social aspects in the decision-making and design process. The POWERUP tools and methodologies will be extensively validated in 4 European regions and replicated in 10 follower regions, covering a variety of conditions all over Europe. The project aims to involve >700 public and private stakeholders and organise 46 workshops, incresing the perception of fairness of the RES business models by 80% and the community acceptance by at least 50%. The project consortium is a team from 5 EU countries that comprises regional energy agencies, public authorities, universities, and research centres and includes leading experts in Social Science and Humanities, Business, Renewable Energies, ICT and data science, legal and regulatory framework, with large practical experience in promotion of the renewable energies uptake.

  O ativismo climático tem-se tornado cada vez mais presente na promoção do debate público sobre as alterações climáticas. Esta investigação analisa o papel da comunicação ativista na produção de visibilidade, na moldagem de discursos e na influência sobre perceções sociais e políticas, em Portugal, em torno da questão climática. A análise desenvolve-se em três eixos interligados: (i) a cobertura mediática do ativismo climático na imprensa portuguesa, com recurso à análise multimodal; (ii) as reações discursivas dos políticos portugueses às ações ativistas, com foco em momentos de elevada visibilidade política, examinadas por meio da Análise Comparativa Qualitativa (QCA); e (iii) a perspetiva interna do ativismo climático, a partir da observação participante das formas como as ações são planeadas, executadas e avaliadas pelos próprios ativistas, em função dos seus efeitos comunicacionais. O objetivo é descobrir qual o contributo da comunicação ativista em Portugal para a sensibilização quanto à questão climática.   Equipa de orientação: Mehmet Ali Üzelgün      

The COOPERHATE - Multidisciplinary cooperation approach to prevent and counter hate crime and hate speech aims to provide a comprehensive approach to the prevention, reporting, investigation and prosecution of hate crime and speech-related incidents focused on (i) improving the enforcement of hate speech and hate crime-related laws; (ii) ensuring justice, protection and support for hate crime and hate speech victims; (iii) increasing the capacity of public authorities and civil society to identify, detect and act on hate speech and hate crime; and (iv) raising public awareness to hate speech and hate crime. To do so, COOPERHATE will perform an assessment of current gaps and obstacles to the successful implementation of hate crime-related laws, develop an online platform & app for hate crime reports and to enhance victim involvement, develop collaboration protocols between CSOs, LEAs, IT companies and judicial actors, create the COOPERHATE’s Detection & Assessment Technology and Motivation Identification & Victim Assistance (MIVA) Toolkit, provide a b-Learning training course for LEAs, CSOs and judicial actors, and implement a holistic awareness-raising and public positive-narrative campaign.
