    Attaining the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal of Good Health and Well-Being (2023)
    Emerald Publishing | Emerald Publishing Limited
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-03-30
    Beschreibung: The ebook edition of this title is Open Access and freely available to read online. Attaining the 2030 Sustainable Development Goal of Good Health and Well-Being focuses on Sustainable Development Goal number three (SDG#3): prioritising the emotional and physical health of humans around the world. Examining family businesses in Germany, Malaysia, Mexico, and Australia, each case study presents a unique perspective from their respective country, analysing how SDG#3 translates into ensuring healthy lives and promoting well-being for all. The case studies presented generate insights and key takeaways into the role of family businesses in fostering safety and equality in healthcare systems and infrastructure across the globe. The United Nations’ (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are 17 Goals pledged by 193 nations in 2015 which would help engender an improved, fairer, and more sustainable world – one in which ‘no one is left behind’. The SDGs are a call to action, to develop innovative solutions to the most complex, societal, and environmental global challenges. In Family Businesses on a Mission, series editors Naomi Birdthistle and Rob Hales bring together international case studies to illustrate how family businesses can attain the UN 2030 SDGs. Accessible to those working in the field beyond academia – such as family business practitioners, family business owners, government and policymakers, members of NGOs, business associations and philanthropic centres – this book series equally appeals to those with a general interest in entrepreneurship and business.

    Chapter «Professors of the Street»: Cognitive Justice in Times of ‘Crisis’ (2024)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-04-03
    Beschreibung: Arundati Roy (2020) states that historically pandemics have forced humans to break with the past and imagine their world anew. This chapter, set in the COVID-19 pandemic, centres the importance of cognitive justice which is an essential part of the struggles for justice against domination. Cognitive justice is used as a lens to explore the case story of Cape Town Together (CTT), which was a response to COVID-19. The social movement was built, bottom up, challenging the deep racial and class divides that are a signature of Cape Town. The concept of ‘professors of the street’ emerged as part of CTT. This concept is explored by locating it within the context of the pandemic and within CTT’s learning/teaching/organising practices. It is argued that ‘professors of the street’ are a provocation to challenge the dominant knowledge hierarchies that prevail – it is a metaphor for the critical importance of grassroots, local knowledge in times of ‘crisis’. The teaching/learning /organising ethos within CTT provided fertile soil for «professors of the street» to emerge as an example of the enactment of cognitive justice within a crisis. The case story offers insights for organising for social-ecological justice in various ‘crisis’ situations.

    Chapter The Role of Adult Learning and Education in (Post-)Covid Times (2023)
    Firenze University Press | Re-thinking Adult Education Research. Beyond the Pandemic
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2023-08-08
    Beschreibung: The COVID-19 pandemic has caused unprecedented disruptions to global education systems, with adult education shifting to a virtual world and relying heavily on digital and ICT tools to maintain continuity of learning. However, the prolonged pandemic raises important questions about the future of adult education. The current essay examines the most significant changes in three key areas of adult education: health, citizenship, and digital technologies. It argues that adult education should not only equip people with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate a crisis, but also play a proactive role in shaping the future of education and the world. It should critically analyse and challenge mainstream ideas and offer constructive alternatives to proposed solutions.

    Privacy and Safety in Online Learning (2023)
    MT Open Press, Middle Tennessee State University | MT Open Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2023-03-17
    Beschreibung: This collection features essays, case studies, and pedagogical approaches that explore how educators managed the privacy, security, and safety concerns that rushed into our lives as we shifted into emergency remote learning in 2020. While the COVID-19 pandemic brought this concern into focus, privacy issues with online learning continue to exist alongside us and our students. This book provides readers insight into the current state of privacy issues, describes the challenges and rewards of developing more privacy-focused learning environments, and presents several resources and tools that readers can bring to their own teaching practices. Representing a variety of perspectives from K-12, higher education, and libraries, contributors describe the challenges they encountered and offer solutions to help ensure the safekeeping of students’ online lives. How do we navigate these online environments, who collects our data, and how can we protect our most vulnerable populations?

    Chapter A method based on beach profile analysis for shoreline identification (2023)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-04-09
    Beschreibung: Coastal erosion coupled with human-induced pressure has severely affected the coastal areas of the Mediterranean region. In this context, the Pisa coastal plain shows a long history of erosion, which started at the beginning of the nineteenth century. The work aims to provide a method and a software to extract the shoreline position. The algorithm is based on the variation of the topographic beach profile caused by the transition from water to sand. The algorithm is promoted by the release of a QGIS v3.x plugin uploaded on the official repository of the software.

    Chapter Internationalisation in Higher Education: A Virtual Adult Education Academy in Times of COVID-19 (2023)
    Firenze University Press | Re-thinking Adult Education Research. Beyond the Pandemic
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2023-08-08
    Beschreibung: COVID-19 calls for new ways of approaching internationalisation in adult learning and education. Based on experiences gathered during the 2021 virtual Adult Education Academy, this paper identifies challenges in international virtual learning settings in higher education. Such settings involve different levels of digital literacy among participants and moderators, limited access to high-speed internet, different time zones, and difficulties in social interactions. The article presents the didactical and methodological conceptualisation of a virtual setting to overcome these challenges. The concept involves facilitating exchanges between moderators, providing technical support, implementing (a-)synchronous sessions, and establishing a virtual space in which learning materials are created.

    Chapter Use of mixed study techniques in the evaluation of coastline dynamics - the “Porto Cesareo” MPA case of study (2023)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-04-09
    Beschreibung: The rise of the mean sea level is affecting negatively the entire coastal system, mainly due to the increase of the erosive phenomenon along the shorelines. We studied the erosion of a well knows tract of coastline, in a highly anthropized area, located inside an Italian Marine Protected Area. The methodology is based on mixed survey technics, drones aero photogrammetry surveys, aerial images acquired by the Italian Military Geographic Institute, elaboration of paleo-shorelines related to underwater archaeological markers, and on the elaboration of Sentinel-2 satellite products.

    Chapter Localizing and Visualizing the Degree of People Crowding with an Omnidirectional Camera by Different Times (2024)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-04-07
    Beschreibung: The Corona Disaster increased the demand for information on the degree of human crowding, as it was essential to balance avoiding restricting behavior and reducing the risk of crowding. Although there are many technologies for detecting people using monitoring cameras, the number of cameras installed in a wide area is costly, and coverage is limited. In this study, we propose a method to qualitatively visualize the distribution of people by using images captured by a moving omnidirectional camera from the viewpoint of facility management during regular security patrols. Omnidirectional images are used for both 3D modeling of the target space based on SfM (structure from motion) and person detection/tracking by machine learning. The distribution of people is visualized qualitatively by obtaining the positions of the extracted people on the 3D model of the site and mapping them. The parallel software processing of visitor observation and mapping is expected to be highly cost-effective in terms of implementation and operation. On the other hand, although there are time deviations in the mapping depending on the location, the visualization and the updated time show their usefulness in understanding the distribution of congestion

    Chapter Learning in Cities to Create Sustainable Societies (2023)
    Firenze University Press | Re-thinking Adult Education Research. Beyond the Pandemic
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-03-28
    Beschreibung: Cities play a leading role in addressing many of the global challenges of the 21st century. They are an important part of the 2030 Agenda for sustainable development, which assigns them multiple tasks. Cities should be committed to reducing the ecological footprint and to creating solutions that respond in a differentiated way to the challenges and opportunities in different areas of the world. The sustainable development strategies of cities have determined the definition of different urban models, focused on the need to offer citizens well-being and innovation. This contribution presents the model of learning cities (LC), cities that put learning and education at the heart of their strategies. The paper identifies some of the possible strategies to make cities more responsive to the learning needs arising from the recent pandemic crisis.

    Chapter How Italians coped with COVID-19 lockdown: evidence from a survey promoted through social networks (2023)
    Firenze University Press, Genova University Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2023-08-05
    Beschreibung: During the first wave of the pandemic, a quantitative study was implemented through an online survey on the SEBCOV study in five countries: Italy, Slovenia, Malaysia, Thailand, and the United Kingdom. Its objective consisted of investigating the social, ethical, and behavioral aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic. In this work, we focus on the analysis of Italian data coming from a survey promoted through social networks and carried out through two different sampling designs. The two samples present sociodemographic characteristics different from each other and from the whole Italian population, thus producing distorted results without the use of weights. Sample weights have been created through post-stratification and raking. The study participants were adults who had given their informed consent, who resided in Italy and who were able to use a computer or smartphone. Even before the first government decree-law, almost half of the Italian population had already changed their behaviour in order to protect themselves and limit the spreading of the virus. Among them, around 10% moved to a different house looking for company during the lockdown period. Indeed, one of the most worrying aspects was the limitation of social interactions together with mental health, with some differences between age classes and gender. Almost all respondents declared that they had spent the lockdown period connecting with other people through the social network that had a fundamental role in this challenging period, for all age classes. The strong influence of Internet on everyday life during this period helped to keep people close but also encouraged the spreading of fake news, indeed almost all respondents received fake news on different topics. Despite all the problems faced by the Italian population during the quarantine period, hope messages are still present in the final optional open-ended question that provides non-structured but precious qualitative information.

    Chapter Impacted fluvial and coastal sediment connectivity in the Mediterranean: a brief review and implications in the context of global environmental change (2023)
    Firenze University Press
    Details
    Publikationsdatum: 2024-04-09
    Beschreibung: Sediment deficits on Mediterranean coasts have resulted from anthropogenic fragmentation of rivers and loss of sediment flux connectivity caused by dams, river engineering, and aggregate extraction. Coastal sediment transport cells are now characterized by artificial boundaries that impair alongshore sediment connectivity. Climate change and sea-level rise will cause further vulnerability of the Mediterranean’s fragmented rivers and coasts and there is, therefore, an urgent need to foster efforts aimed at re-establishing fluvial and alongshore sediment connectivity
