    Coopetition

    No full text
    Coopetition (simultaneous cooperation and competition) and innovation are often linked. Coopetition facilitates the acquisition and exchange of knowledge between partners, enables the joint development of technologies, and allows firms to share the risks and costs associated with innovation. Coopetitive innovation is based on temporal or continuous relationships and is often intentional but sometimes unintentional. Furthermore, the number and features of partners affect the types of coopetitive innovation, whether radical or incremental. Its processes contain tension, which can be reduced by transactional and relational governance. Furthermore, the time horizon of coopetition and the various fluctuations between the competitive and cooperative impact the periodic success and challenges of coopetitive innovation. Interesting further research themes are green innovations and the role of artificial intelligence in coopetitive innovations, for example

    No full text
    This paper provides an overview of our ongoing five-year research project, funded by the Research Council of Finland, titled Co-creating Linguistically Responsive Teaching in the Context of Endangered Sami Languages for Sami Youth (LINCOSY).1 We discuss the project’s beginning, as well as the key challenges and possibilities that Sami language teaching faces. Based at the University of Lapland, the LINCOSY project aims to create opportunities for the development of Sami language teaching and tools to enhance the emerging field of Sami pedagogy

    Previous VR experience increases embodiment in immersive VR safety training:an exploratory mixed-methods study

    No full text
    Immersive virtual reality (IVR) appears to hold much potential for educational use in occupational safety training, but the best practices for its pedagogically viable design and application remain unclear. We performed an empirical mixed-methods study on the effects of IVR interactivity design and learner characteristics on the learners’ extraneous cognitive load (ECL), sense of spatial presence, and sense of embodiment. The research questions were: (1) “Do learner–IVR interactivity or learner characteristics influence the learners’ perceptions of spatial presence, ECL, and embodiment in IVR safety training?” and (2) “What kind of factors influence the learners’ training experiences, and how can they be addressed in IVR safety training design?” Two experimental groups were compared using IVR training scenarios designed for either high or limited interactivity. Sixty-eight learners participated in training interventions in two work organizations. Data was collected by questionnaires, video recordings, and interviews. No significant differences between the interactivity conditions were found in statistical analyses. Upon examining the effects of learner characteristics, we found that learners with previous VR experience reported significantly higher embodiment compared with VR novices due to higher self-rated body ownership. The qualitative analysis of the interview data revealed that the VR novices discussed issues related to ECL and a diminished sense of spatial presence more frequently. We offer recommendations for the design and application of IVR for safety training based on the findings

    Sami Rights in Finland’s Climate Act:Implementing a Human Rights-Based Approach

    No full text
    This article concerns climate change and its alarming, accelerating consequences and impacts on human rights—in particular, the rights of persons and groups, such as Indigenous peoples, in unique, vulnerable situations. The rights of the Sami people are threatened by effects of climate change as well as resource and energy developments aimed at addressing climate change in the name of green transition—a situation similar to that of many Arctic Indigenous peoples. Indigenous peoples, including the Sami, have demanded justice and adoption of a human rights-based approach as acknowledged in the Paris Agreement, with respect to their rights, in climate change mitigation and adaptation measures. The scope of this article is to study, in the context of Finland’s new Climate Act (2022), the national implementation of the international framework of a justice and human rights-based approach, in relation to the Sami people’s rights recognized in Finland’s Climate Act and climate policies

    Living with land and people:a handbook for artistic project and art-based action research in the Arctic

    No full text
    This handbook provides practical guidance and inspiring models for designing and implementing collaborative projects in northern contexts, introducing the framework of New Genre Arctic Art Education and the Art-Based Action Research methodology.Readers of this book are invited to participate in the creative and often transformative process of making art with Land and communities in ways that are socially, culturally, and environmentally responsive. The book provides step-by-step guidelines for project planning—from setting intentions and goals to choosing methods and evaluating outcomes—developed and tested at the University of Lapland and the Arctic Sustainable Arts and Design network.Drawing on years of teaching, research, and artistic practice through the Living in the Landscape summer school, this handbook highlights examples of how students and scholars from across the Arctic have learned, created, and shared artistic creation. It demonstrates how art can become a meeting place: for collaboration between disciplines, for dialogue between people and the Land, and for imagining sustainable Arctic futures.Whether you are an artist, educator, researcher or representative of a local community, this book equips you with tools to engage respectfully with Arctic Land and communities through art and art education

    Oranssia pölyä!:taideaktivismi ja pohjoinen jokiluonto

    No full text
    Tekstimme käsittelee pohjoisia vesistöjä, Lapin kaivosteollisuutta ja toteuttamaamme taideaktivismia. Taideaktivismimme sisältää kaivosten vaikutusalueilta keräämiämme maa- ja vesinäytteitä, performanssejamme jokiluonnossa ja niiden dokumentaatioita. Sijoitamme taideaktivismimme nykytaiteen kenttään ja kehystämme sen kaivosteollisuutta käsittelevillä historiallisilla ja yhteiskunnallisilla keskusteluilla, kolonialismikritiikillä ja kulttuurisella ekofeminismillä. Lähestymistapojamme yhdistää episteeminen tottelemattomuus: kriittinen ymmärrys ja irtiotto luonnonvarapoliittisista ja -taloudellisista kehyksistä, joihin maaperän rikkauksia sisältävät luontoalueet pohjoisessa liitetään. Positiomme valkoisina, akateemisesti koulutettuina ja kolonialistisesta järjestelmästä hyötyvinä valtaväestön edustajina sekä syrjäisen kaivosteollisuuden kolonialisoiman alueen asukkaina mahdollistaa ristiriitaisen ja kriittisen näkökulman. Esitämme argumentaatiotamme osin valokuva- ja videotaiteena. Ydinkysymyksemme on, millaisia toisin tietämisen ja esittämisen tapoja ja historiallisia yhteyksiä kaivosteollisuutta käsittelevään taideaktivismiimme liittyy
