Abstract: It is proposed to explore the relationship between architecture and landscape architecture from the reading of the Portuguese Regional Architecture Survey conducted in the 1950s and the reading of the texts of the 1940s and 1950s by the landscape architect Francisco Caldeira Cabral compiled in the work Foundations of Architecture Landscaping (2003). Recognizing some common topics in the reading of these two works (the Inquiry of the architects in the 1950s and the texts of Francisco Caldeira Cabral of 1940 and 50), it is intended to establish a dialogue between these two disciplinary areas - architecture and landscape architecture. The aim of this approach is to clarify, through some examples of popular architecture shown from the Inquiry (practical proposals), some of the theoretical foundations presented by Francisco Caldeira Cabral in his theoretical work. Through the reading carried out it is concluded that it exists in both. The idea of a common view centered on the idea of "intrinsic beauty of the work" referenced by Caldeira Cabral, contrary to the application of a decorative form (common to the defenders of the Portuguese House) where landscape values, economic and functional aspects support rational and Of harmony between the action of man and the landscape. #2017 #CT #TeresaMadeiradaSilva

Title: Marat-Mendes, T.(2017), Mapping the actuality of the theorectical foundations of contemporary urban form thinkers, AESOP 2017 - Spaces of Dialog for Places of Dignity, Lisboa, JUL 11-14, 2017. Date: 2017 Publisher: AESOP 2017 - Spaces of Dialog for Places of Dignity Link: N.A. Publication type: Publication in conference proceedings Research Project: N.A. Abstract: Over the past two decades, a number of researches has conducted several studies about the effects of the changing environments and ecosystems, while revealing that many of the environmental problems that affect society are directly or indirectly related to issues of urban lifestyles and consumption patterns (WCED, 1987, Echenique et al. ,2012). Furthermore, these are seen to have far-reaching and long-term effects, not only within the urban areas, but also on their entire surrounding regions (Rees, 1994; Kennedy et al., 2011; and Niza et al., 2016). The relationship between urban form and lifestyles appears to be central to both the field of knowledge of urban design, urban culture and the topic of sustainability. If one accepts that changes of lifestyles are crucial to the achievement of sustainability, and that sustainability is as germane to the control of environmental disorders as is suggested in various European and other international directives (UN-HABITAT, 2012; WCED, 1987, the EU Cohesion Policy 2014-2020), it is important that all those that embrace the field of urban design should reflect on how to pursue their role in the search for sustainability. This presentation aims to contribute to a reflection on how urban design can contribute in an effective manner to a sustainable urban environment, while exposing the results of an ongoing research that seeks to identify the actuality of the seminal foundations that have guided the urban designers that are today engaged with the study of urban form. The results of a selected number of interviews has allowed organizing a first systematization of such identified theoretical foundations, and therefore provides a first analysis about their current relevance, having in mind the environmental, economical and social changes that have affect the contemporary world. The results of this research aim to contribute with an identification of the current approaches to urban design, mostly in Europe, while identifying their limitations and opportunities, under the light of a sustainable urban future.

Abstract: São aqui analisadas duas abordagens metodológicas específicas, identificadas como percursoras na temática da sustentabilidade, por se alicerçarem em dimensões sociais, transdisciplinares e participativas. Pretende-se assim promover uma reflecção sobre como integrar estes mesmos processos nos programas de ensino de Arquitectura, de modo a enfatizar o papel social do arquitecto na construção de um melhor bem comum. Complementarmente, analisam-se duas escolas de Arquitectura Portuguesas (FAUP e ISCTE) no sentido de mapear o paradigma da Sustentabilidade do ensino actual da Arquitectura.

Title: Milicic, V., Thorarinsdottir, R., Santos, M.J., et al.(2017) Commercial Aquaponics Approaching the European Market: To Consumers' Perceptions of Aquaponics Products in Europe, Water, 9 (2) DOI: 10.3390/w9020080. Research Group: Governance, Economy and Citizenry Date: 2017 Publisher: Water Link: http://www.mdpi.com/2073-4441/9/2/80 Publication type: Scientific journal article Research Project: N.A. Abstract: The first commercial aquaponics companies are starting up in Europe. The main focus has been on solving technology issues and optimizing production. However, increasing attention is now being paid to certification and regulations linked to aquaponics, as well as the marketing of products and services. The paper presents the results of a study whose main aim was to estimate consumers’ knowledge about aquaponics and their acceptance of aquaponics products in different European regions. An on-line questionnaire was administered to the general public through the aquaponics network of Food and Agriculture COST (European Cooperation in Science and Technology) Action FA1305 “The EU Aquaponics Hub—Realising Sustainable Integrated Fish and Vegetable Production for the EU” in 16 European countries. The methodology includes univariate and multivariate statistical techniques. The results show that, on average, attitudes towards aquaponics were positive, showing no significant differences between those who already knew about aquaponics and those who only heard about it through the survey. More than 50% of respondents had never heard of aquaponics, whilst more than 70% had already heard of hydroponics. No more than 17% of respondents were willing to pay more for aquaponically produced products and no more than 40% more when compared to the price of products from conventional farming. The results confirm three different clusters of potential consumers of aquaponics products. They also suggest an urgent need for implementing integrated and holistic approaches involving all stakeholders in aquaponics, in order to define a marketing plan and efficient communication strategies. This COST action, other projects and public decision makers must invest in educating consumers about aquaponics through the organization of guided tours, thematic workshops and tastings of aquaponics products in order to raise their awareness about this new technology. It is absolutely urgent that public decision makers, in cooperation with aquaponics stakeholders, address the main institutional constraints, namely the introduction of aquaponics as an economic activity and the organic certification of aquaponics products.
