Pluridentities Aruba: General school report
Full text linkPluridentities is een interdisciplinair onderzoeksproject dat financiering heeft ontvangen van het onderzoeks- en innovatieprogramma Horizon Europe van de Europese Unie onder subsidieovereenkomst nr. 101178914. Zie https://www.pluridentities.com/ voor meer informatie.
De projectpartners zijn een multidisciplinaire groep van onderzoeksteams bestaande uit taalkundigen, lerarenopleiders en politicologen. De leden van het consortium zijn gevestigd in België (Vrije Universiteit Brussel en KU Leuven), Nederland (Universiteit van Amsterdam), Zweden (Universiteit van Göteborg), Spanje (Universiteit van Córdoba) en Aruba (Universiteit van Aruba). De inhoud van dit document is het resultaat van het werk dat door de partners in het kader van het project is ontwikkeld.
Dit schoolrapport is een beknopte samenvatting van een deel van de resultaten die verkregen zijn tijdens de afname van een vragenlijst in de lente van 2025. De verdere beoogde producten van het project zijn een structurele analyse van interviews met leerlingen en leerkrachten, onderwijsinterventies, een netwerk van beleidsstakeholders en beleidsaanbevelingen. Deze producten zullen bij oplevering beschikbaar worden gesteld op https://www.pluridentities.com
Infrastructure, Risk, and Resilience on Small Island Developing States (SIDS): Navigating the Nexus. Part 1: Conceptual Foundations.
No full textTwo-thirds of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) depend on infrastructure investment, as they are the backbone of production, consumption and our daily life, hence the material basis of societal well-being. As economies develop, the demand for new and/or improved services rise, such as transport, sanitation, education, and health. These services are delivered by infrastructure (also referred to as ‘material stocks’ or simply ‘stocks’) that
drive a self-reinforcing cycle of resource consumption: to first build and then to maintain and operate the stocks, creating a “lock-in-effect”. From a sustainability perspective, it is necessary to observe the relationships between infrastructure development, resource demands, and the societal services stocks provide, referred to as the “stock-flow-service” (SFS) nexus.
Small Island Developing States (SIDS) suffer disproportionally from the adverse effects of global warming such as hurricanes, flooding, droughts, and sea level rise. Between 1970 and 2020, SIDS collectively lost $153 billion from extreme events, largely from infrastructure damage and the consequent breakdown of critical services. Constrained by their small size and available resources, SIDS rely heavily on imports for most of their construction needs,
often through complex supply-chain configurations increasingly threatened by volatile markets, rising transport costs and geopolitical concerns.
At the same time, service needs from infrastructure are also changing in SIDS. Climate impacts are escalating the need for hard-engineering climate adaptation measures such as sea-walls, groynes, dykes, or artificial islands, hence driving the demand for more resources. Unplanned and unrestrained infrastructure development heightens the risk of maladaptation, especially in climate-vulnerable SIDS. By recognizing the complex dynamics of material
stock, flows, and service provision, policymakers can mitigate systemic risks and safeguard the long-term well-being of island societies
