thinking infrastructurally about business activities and economic value for a socioecological transformation

more than 70 of global carbon emissions responsible for climate change are nowadays produced by only 100 firms this makes transforming corporations towards more sustainable pathways a crucial challenge of today revalue explores an innovative approach to meet this challenge by combining new infrastructural perspectives in legal analysis with philosophy and the use of social science methods until now the policy and scholarly focus has been placed on setting ambitious carbonneutrality goals for leading firms in key industries with the aim of greening their global supplychains revalue transcends this focus it does so by broadening the focus to those actors with the regulatory authority to constitute markets and thereby to reconfigure the rationalities that shape corporate decisions for these purposes revalue focuses on two key private governance institutions that currently shape the preferences of transnational corporations in the global economy 1 the legalregulatory infrastructure provided by predominant accounting institutions which govern what counts as income or wealth in financial markets and 2 the legalregulatory infrastructure provided by predominant stockexchange institutions which govern how the price of shares and other financial instruments are determined these private governance institutions do not just report income price or risk revalue investigates the extent to which they rather performatively shape the information that they purport to describe through private regulatory choices that configure corporate preferences and market orders and thereby can transform them towards more sustainable pathways by determining what is susceptible of economic value and how it is valued

improving flower attractiveness for pollinators study of developmental morphological and chemical cues in relation to bee foraging

animal pollinators are vital for life on earth while human population keeps growing pollinator populations are dropping thus threatening food security in agriculture the main insect pollinators are bees by farthe lack of knowledge on how domesticated plants attract and reward bees has hampered the selection of varieties with improved and mutually beneficial croppollinator relationships we propose to investigate flower features including developmental morphological and chemical cues in relation with bee foraging elucidating the molecular basis of these processes would not only help sustain yields but it is key to understand the coevolution of plants and pollinatorswe chose melon as a model system because it is a strictly entomophilous crop and because it provides all flower sexual morphs useful to probe plantinsect interactions forbees is a multidisciplinary project that integrates molecular genetic analysis and precise phenotyping first we will study melon genetic biodiversity with the aim to identify alleles that control nectarrelated traits and bee attraction the comparative analysis of wild accessions landraces and breeding lines will further test whether domestication led to the loss of useful traits affecting insect visits second we will analyse the gene networks that drive nectar gland development and nectar production finally potential key regulators will be validated genetically through this work we aim to develop a toolbox to tailor the morphology and chemistry of the flowers towards improved bee foraging activitiesin addition to research in melon results from this project and from previous works will be translated into neglected crops of the cucurbitaceae family these are major food crops in many developing countries ensuring food security and generating income for poor farmers yet these crops suffer from low fruit set because of partial pollination and would greatly benefit from enhanced breeding tools
