By concentrating on hybrid, not strictly normative social situations, we consider how people experiment with novel forms of citizenship that modify the outlines of formal citizenship. Such forms of citizenship imply practical activities connected to existing set-ups or milieus, and what is at stake is the continuous invention of the democratic principle itself, i.e. the « right to rights ». The task at hand is to affirm and implement the « right to the city », not immediately conceded, that we call profane citizenship, and that we intend to use as a means of analyzing democratic ownership. Our research program aims to examine in what ways the practices of actors who find themselves in situations where they have to make do with their faults, handicaps, lack of resources, are taken (or not) into account as alternatives to juridical citizenship. We will focus on “milieus of translation” gathering the “have-some” people acting in solidarity networks. Three interconnected fields are concerned (languages and codes, proofs of identity, tests of urbanity), leading to qualitative surveys whose materials and first results will be submitted with sensing methodology to professional and institutional representatives. This in turn will lead us to reconsider the notion of profane citizenship with an eye to the recent transformations of democracy in various national frameworks, by concentrating not only on the juridical concepts of citizenship, but also on its sociological configurations. The theoretical and experimental contribution expected from this research project aims to develop the notion of profane citizenship, showing how it allows, in situations of delicate or relative balance, to take into account, according to the different national and democratic political cultures, both the uniqueness of the personal actions they imply and the political ontology involved thereby.

We have developed a new numerical method to consistently compute atmospheric trace gas and aerosol chemistry and cloud processes. The method is computationally efficient so that it can be used in climate models. For the first time cloud droplet formation on multi-component particles can be represented based on first principles rather than parameterisations. This allows for a direct coupling in models between aerosol chemical composition and the continuum between hazes and clouds as a function of ambient relative humidity. We will apply the method in a new nested global-limited area model system to study atmospheric chemistry climate interactions and anthropogenic influences. We will focus on the Mediterranean region because it is a hot spot in climate change exposed to drying and air pollution. The limited area model will also be applied as cloud-resolving model to study aerosol influences on precipitation and storm development. By simulating realistic meteorological conditions at high spatial resolution our method can be straightforwardly tested against observations. Central questions are: - How does the simulated haze-cloud continuum compare with remote sensing measurements and what is the consequence of abandoning the traditional and artificial distinction between aerosols and clouds? - How are cloud and precipitation formation influenced by atmospheric chemical composition changes? - To what extent do haze and cloud formation in polluted air exert forcings of synoptic meteorological conditions and climate? - Can aerosol pollution in the Mediterranean region exacerbate the predicted and observed drying in a changing climate? The model system is user-friendly and will facilitate air quality and climate studies by regional scientists. The project will be part of the Energy, Environment and Water Centre of the newly founded Cyprus Institute, provide input to climate impact assessments and contribute to a regional outreach programme.

Within the knowledge-based bio-economy, information sharing is an important issue. In agri-food business, this is a complex issue because many aspects and dimensions play a role. An installed base of information systems lack standardization, which hampers efficient exchange of information. This leads to inefficient business processes and hampers adoption of new knowledge and technology. Especially, the exchange of information at whole chain or network level is poorly organized. Although arable and livestock farming have their own specific needs, there are many similarities in the need for an integrated approach. Spatial data increasingly plays an important role in agriculture. The overall objective of this project is to coordinate and support the setting up of sustainable network for developing a system for common data exchange in agriculture. This will be achieved by: - establishing a platform on data exchange in agriculture in the EU; - developing a reference framework for interoperability of data exchange; - identifying the main challenges for harmonizing data exchange. First, an in-depth analysis and investigation of the state-of-the art in EU member states will be carried out. A platform is built up that facilitates communication and collaborative working groups, that work on several, representative use cases, guided by an integrative reference framework. The framework consists of a sound architecture and infrastructure based on a business process modeling approach integrating existing standards and services. The development is done in close interaction with relevant stakeholders through the platform and international workshops. The results converge into a strategic research agenda that contains a roadmap for future developments. The project consortium consists of 14 partners from 11 countries covering different disciplines, stakeholder views and experiences with information management and standardization.

Removal of a forage fish has consequences for both predators and prey of forage fish. As everything is connected, every management action has a price which goes beyond the apparent, direct effect on the target species. The fishery on forage fish can therefore not be seen in isolation, as the immediate gain in profit from the fishery has to be discounted by the lowered potential for production of large piscivorous fish. Management actions on other species also influences forage fish, i.e. conservation efforts on marine mammals or sea birds have direct consequences for the predation pressure on forage fish. The objective of the project is to provide insight and quantitative advice on the ecosystem wide consequences of management actions directly or indirectly related to forage fish. The two overarching questions are: 1. What are the consequences of forage fish fisheries on (a) predator growth and abundance, (b) economic output of fisheries on piscivorous species, and (c) ecosystem stability and the risk for regime shifts? 2. What are the consequences of changes in predator populations on forage fish populations and fisheries? The methods is a combination of ecosystem models, of process studies aimed at feeding into the models, of economical models, and of data-analysis of existing data sources. The project covers four ecosystems in detail; Norwegian-Barents Sea, Baltic Sea, North Sea and Bay of Biscay. FACTS bring together leading European fisheries and university institutes working on creating the tools for ecosystem based management. The active involvement of the institutes in the current management provides a means for the results of the project to feed into management. The project furthermore includes a network component which ensures a wider dissemination of methods and results within the marine scientific community.

Research as “a profession like any other”: this is the concept at the centre of the entire project. The aim consists of demonstrating that in their ordinary activities and day-to-day work, researchers, such as other professionals, participate in general social and economic development. This will allow researchers to be shown in a more “ordinary” light, free of the mysterious aura that casts the profession as one that is complicated and inaccessible. To achieve this objective, the research centres involved will be transformed into a kind of virtual workshop in which the general public, particularly young people, as well as the friends and family of the researchers themselves, will be involved in the typical situations of the profession “researcher”. Children and adults will have the opportunity to understand science by experiencing its day-to-day practices, by frequenting the spaces and places where research is carried out and by coming into contact with its machinery and equipment, but above all by talking to those directly involved. The public participating will be actively involved in hands-on experiments, in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere, using also an accessible wording also for non scientists . Each of the venues for the day’s events will plan a “European corner”, providing information on Europe and European interventions in favour of researchers and research.

Main objective of our proposal is contributing to the reinforcement of public recognition of researcher as profession . The proposed events are organized on 25 September 2009 : from experiments, workshops, humorous presentations, students&apos; drama performance on research topic, two researchers’ rock bands, different experiments which red line is promoting researchers&apos; care for environment and importance of this profession for society and preservation of healthy natural environment...all with festive and fun character. The target audience of proposed events, foreseen in an informal and attractive way, in which whole families can take part in, is the public at large, including all different groups of population from youngest one to elder citizens. Intensive awareness campaign with research of public perception before and after 25 sept. 2009, will be important tool for strengthening of public recognition of researchers and to measure the impact of our activities. They all aim at offering the public at large an opportunity to directly meet researchers in a relaxed atmosphere, with »European corner« and exhibition of posters&apos; competition »Imagine the advertising poster of the 2010 researchers&apos; Night« in the heart of the event&apos;s location. As a part of the »European corner« there will be a transmition of events organised in the frame of the European Researchers&apos; night 2009 and available on internet connection. Interesting experiments, workshops in which visitors will participate will be performed. Information how young people can become researchers themselves and fun corner for the smallest children, will be available as well. In order to illustrate the fact that researchers are &quot;normal people&quot;, whose unique specificity is their curiosity and passion for research, they will play on their own concert and keep company with visitors.

HabEat will bring together 11 European partners from 6 European countries with a multidisciplinary approach (psychology, epidemiology, behavioural science, nutrition, sensory science) to enable a key breakthrough in the understanding of how food habits are formed (and can also be changed) in infants and young children. This will be done by combining epidemiologic studies based on existing human cohorts from 4 countries and experimental work carried out in 6 countries so as to collaboratively identify: - the critical periods in the formation/breaking of food habits - the key learning mechanisms, their relative impact in the short, mid and long term and their importance according to the different critical periods - the most effective strategies for breaking habits, i.e. for changing from poor to healthy habits - Individual reactions to the learning mechanisms and individual susceptibility to changes Furthermore the project will work hand-in-hand with a board of stakeholder advisors (including industry, health professionals) to produce guidelines on the recommendations that should be communicated to childcare professionals and parents from different target groups (especially those most at risk) in different EU regions. HabEat will also propose strategies to policy makers for promoting practices to ensure healthy food habits in young infants and children as well as intervention strategies for enabling habit breaking taking into account individual differences and parental feeding strategies.

A great dose of humour, comments made by well-known and well-liked scientists, bold experiments carried out hand in hand with scholars, answers to all the questions which have bothered humankind for ages: can a man fly? Is a human voice able to break glass? What affects the size of the Moon? Apart from that, activities loved by everyone: workshops, demonstrations, lectures, tours to places usually closed to ‘ordinary people in the street’! There are more attractions of this incredible night – The Silesian Researchers’ Night – which for the first time would embrace the whole Silesian community and prove that science and scientists are not boring at all! The programme of this extraordinary event will be exciting and diverse, in order to satisfy even the most discriminating visitors. Great figures of science will be invited to participate, scientists, specialists in the arts and economists. During this Night they will be real actors and give a unique interactive performance for, and with the help of, the whole Silesian community. For only this Night the University will not separate serious professors from the rest of the world. The researchers, usually solemn, are going to show their real faces; they will convince even the greatest doubters that apart form science, they have incredible passions and they are eager and able to talk about them. The success of the Silesian Researchers’ Night is sure, as three important research centres in Southern Poland have combined their forces. The Silesian University of Technology will back up the event with its broad experience, scientific and research bases, extensive contacts with the industry; the University of Economics and the University of Silesia will be a rich source of marvellous ideas, and their authority will certainly attract the media and great numbers of visitors. The Night will show that a Friday night spent together with the scientists can offer an attractive alternative to popular ways of spending your time off.
