social economy enterprises for development and democracy

eroding liberal economic model and democracy require novel approaches to development cooperation the new research agenda emphasises the need for more research on the interactions between the nationstates policies and organisational models soeco4dev aims at responding to these policy and theoretical debates by providing an original and innovative approach and multilevel perspective to understanding the role of the local bottomup institutions to uphold democratisation and development in postcommunist countries the objective of soeco4dev is to analyse how the emerging phenomenon of social and solidarity economy sse organisations drive social innovations and change in three distinct dimensions of sse entrepreneurial culture economic dimension solidarity bonds social dimension and democracy promotion governance dimension the research focuses on the nascent entrepreneurial forms of sse social enterprises se in two postsoviet republics georgia and kyrgyzstan that continually strive to develop and democratise their societies soeco4dev project is marked out by its ambitious and interdisciplinary nature that contrasts nationstate and organisational levels and carefully integrates research and policy local and global perspectives the project is underpinned by an innovative and robust methodological approach that aims at constructing a wellgrounded theory of sses internationalisation in underexplored country contexts the project is particularly timely in the context of conflicts and increasing inequalities as it aims at gaining an indepth understanding of the new forms of social organising and their capacity to complement the traditional local development actors such as civil society organisations and the private sector soeco4dev also aims at the career development of the researcher broadening her research areas and improving her qualitative research and publication skills to obtain a permanent teaching and research position in the eu

the origin and evolution of a blastered mercury

mercury is a metalrich planet from which earthbased and spacecraft data were collected our understanding of its interior structure and thermochemical evolution is however still relatively poor this is due to 1 large uncertainties on its polar moment of inertia and surface composition this will be largely improved by the bepicolombo mission 2 an unknown bulkplanet composition and 3 a poor knowledge of some key thermophysical properties eg phase stability temperature density of solidliquid metals and silicates inside mercury this is because under mercurys reducing conditions elements behave differently than on other planets currently available phase diagrams for the moon and mars are thus irrelevant for calculating the compositions and physical properties of mercurys core mantle and crust improving such constraints is critical but requires new experiments under hitherto unexplored conditions they will be done in ironheartso far it was largely neglected that many compositional features of mercury are inconsistent with its direct accretion as a small metalrich planet ironhearts working hypothesis is that mercury is merely the remnant of a larger martiansized chondritic planet which we call protomercury involved in collisions having stripped away much of its mantle this process did eventually set the final composition of modern mercury for the first time ironheart will evaluate experimentally how protomercury controlled the core and mantle compositions of modern mercury further experiments on these compositions will provide phase equilibria of mercurys internal layers allowing us to calculate their thermophysical properties by combining those with bepicolombo data into thermal and geophysical models we will provide a clearer than ever picture of mercurys structure and evolution ironheart will also be critical to understanding dense exoplanets and the earth which accreted from similar building blocks as mercury

contentious politics and democratic renewal in sustainability transitions

trans4demo is an evidencebased and impactdriven set of actions to address contentious politics arising from climate change and sustainable transitions these conflicts are seen as a critical challenge for democratic systems and their importance is expected to grow in the future authoritarian tendencies and rightwing populism have weakened social cohesion making large parts of eu populations less willing to change their practices and hindering responses to climate challengesthe main objective of the project is to investigate the role and evolution of diverse forms of opposition and contentious politics of sustainability transitions and their impact on democracy we aim at delivering the temporalitysensitive conceptual framework practical understandings and policy recommendations to assist in democracy reinvigoration by exploring these intersections we identify specific scientific consensusbased and politically normative goals that political communities in diverse european contexts could pursue empirically throughout the project we will 1 focus on practical understandings of the role of various bottomup mobilizations against the populist backdrop 2 identify novel sites of constructive democratic engagement and 3 address the role of trust in the democratic process including the validity of electoral processes building on this 4 we will provide sound researchbased policy recommendations that balance bottomup and topdown perspectives for democratic renewalto achieve these targets we will employ triangulated and participatory methodologies including case studies and futureoriented methods developed in collaboration with societal actors involved in the projectfrom the initial design of the research agenda to fieldwork and dissemination activities
uncovering the regulatory landscape of arabidopsis thaliana responses to cold temperatures

plants as sessile organisms must constantly adapt to variable environmental conditions among which temperature is of paramount importance in the context of climate change indeed in future years despite an expected rise in temperatures due to global warming we can also expect an increase in the frequency of severe cold periods for which plants are not prepared therefore understanding the molecular processes that allow plants to react and adapt to cold is essential for developing coldresistant plants which is ultimately indispensable for global food security in recent decades many studies have embarked in addressing this issue however the global regulatory landscape underlying cold acclimation and adaption of plants to noisy and fluctuating natural cold conditions remain poorly investigated low temperatures are known to have a direct effect on chromatin accessibility which is directly linked to gene expression therefore the aim of this project is to investigate the dynamics of the coding and noncoding arabidopsis thaliana transcriptome as well as changes in chromatin accessible sites in response to regimes of decreasing temperatures to this end a comparative analysis of deepcoverage rnaseq transcriptome and atacseq chromatin accessibility will be performed on a thaliana plants grown over weeks of fluctuating temperatures mimicking natural cold conditions of autumn and early winter the proposed experimental design will reveal novel coding genes long noncoding rnas lncrnas and potential distal regulatory elements involved in arabidopsis responses to cold thus by combining interdisciplinary and mutually reinforcing approaches including epigenomics epigenetics transcriptomics and bioinformatics the proposed project will significantly improve our understanding of the molecular mechanisms required for plant adaptation to cold temperatures likely delivering valuable tools for future breeding of cold resilient crop species
