Infrastructure Equity Faculty Cluster Hire – Assistant or Associate Professor of Earth System Science

November 30, 2023 by Benis Egoh Categories: News, Vacancies

The Department of Earth System Science (ESS) within the School of Physical Sciences at The University of California, Irvine, is seeking candidates for an Assistant Professor (tenure track) or Associate Professor (tenured) position as part of UCI’s Black Thriving Initiative (BTI) Infrastructure Equity cluster hiring program.

The department seeks a faculty member with a clear vision to expand scientific knowledge that can facilitate equitable mitigation/adaptation measures, address environmental injustice, and increase resilience within low income communities and communities of color. Their research should be directed at quantitative understanding of human-driven environmental challenges over local to global scales and the disproportionate impacts they may have on historically marginalized communities.

BIOTRAILS Learning Platform

November 30, 2023 by Iskra Categories: Collaboration calls, News

The BIOTRAILS Learning Platform has been developed as part of the BIOTRAILS Horizon Europe project which explores pathways towards transformative change for biodiversity. The learning platform acts as an online community and social learning space aiming to help support the fruitful collaboration and learning on challenges and opportunities for transformative change and the climate-biodiversity-society nexus within four value chains (for cocoa, aquaculture, gold and handicrafts) and beyond, through the project’s “Learning and Action Alliances” or LAAs. By joining the trans-project LAA, you will have the chance to: [Read more…] about BIOTRAILS Learning Platform

Call for input: Identifying seeds of change

October 27, 2023 by Iskra Categories: Collaboration calls, News

Are you passionate about your work to integrate biodiversity and lessons from nature into all layers of society? Do you have a project using nature to change your living environment? Or are you using biodiversity and ecosystem indicators in your business process? Let us know! We are looking for initiatives that challenge the status quo. E.g. by altering decision-making processes in the public or private sector, changing market dynamics or conditions, redefining our understanding of human-nature interactions. In other words; initiatives that are (potential) ‘seeds’ of transformative change.

Help us in this challenging quest for seeds of change by filling out this survey. [Read more…] about Call for input: Identifying seeds of change

Inspired by SELINA: Secondary school students in Bulgaria map and assess ecosystem services in karst areas

October 27, 2023 by Iskra Categories: News

From 3 – 7 July 2023 the National Institute of Geophysics, Geodesy and Geography (NIGGG-BAS), an ESP member organisation and one of the Bulgarian partners in the SELINA project, co-organised an innovative field course for secondary school students titled “Education for and by karst”. A total of 17 students from two secondary schools in Sofia, Bulgaria took part in the training.

One of the modules in the course focused on the mapping and assessment of ecosystem services in karst areas, led by SELINA and ESP Bulgaria members Stoyan Nedkov, Hristina Prodanova, Vanya Stoycheva and Gergana Petkova. The idea for the training module emerged from the discussions at the first SELINA thematic workshop in March 2023. There, participants deliberated on the barriers and enabling factors for transformative change and highlighted the need to integrate biodiversity and ecosystem services-related themes in the education process, especially in secondary schools.

Addis Ababa – Urban and planning policies on a historical perspective

October 27, 2023 by Iskra Categories: News, Publications

Book by Prof. Corrado Diamantini and Prof. Domenico Patassini with a Preface by ESP members Dr Blal Adem Esmail (Ruhr University Bochum), Dr Chiara Cortinovis (University of Trento), and Dr Linda Zardo (Università Iuav di Venezia)

We are glad to announce the release of a new book titled “Addis Ababa. At the Roots of a Disputed Flower“, published by ListLab as part of the Babel International category. The book includes a valuable contribution from our ESP members Dr. Blal Adem Esmail, Dr. Chiara Cortinovis, and Dr Linda Zardo. This book represents the English edition of the work by Prof. Diamantini and Prof. Patassini, marking three decades since its original Italian version was published by Franco Angeli. The significant task of bringing the book up to the present day is accomplished through the addition of the first chapter, marking a substantial departure from the original Italian edition. This new chapter provides readers with fresh insights into the modes and significance of the transformation that has unfolded in Addis Ababa in a mere 15 years.
