Projects: key area 4 Grenc
No full textIt's a gentle landscape, the one of Škofja Loka. Green ripples, crossed by the river engravings,
punctuated by the darker patches of the woods. Farther on the mountainside. The ore lump of the old town, and its castle, gather the sense in a tight and complete dialectic in which the textures of solids and voids reverberate with intensity.
The new parts of the town - the residential expansions and the industrial ones - in an obvious iterated design, drop the tension of this relation in a careless everyday life.
It’s from the perception of this "inadequacy" that the request of an international consultation originated, with the formula of the Workshop, from which the Graduating works presented in this book have arisen. With good reason Gabrijelčič – who has been an effective promoter in these years - vindicates the importance of this mode to intercept several original tracks of thought useful to governments to address their programs
A solar utility in Tanzania: field-based experience on the electricity-development nexus
No full textThis paper presents a case study from a project in Arusha region (north Tanzania), aiming at improving access to electricity in secondary schools through the establishment of a social enterprise, in charge of promoting rural electrification by applying the '4As Framework' with an innovative way and business structure. The work highlights benefits and challenges from the field, in order to drawn some key recommendations
Frobenius type and CV-structures for Donaldson-Thomas theory and a convergence property
No full textWe rephrase some well-known results in Donaldson–Thomas theory in terms of (formal families of) Frobenius type and CV-structures on a vector bundle in the sense of Hertling. We study these structures in an abstract setting, and prove a convergence result which is relevant to the case of triangulated categories. An application to physical field theory is also briefly discussed
Cooking in refugee camps and informal settlements: A review of available technologies and impacts on the socio-economic and environmental perspective
No full textIn the world, the number of forcibly displaced people is arising. These people have several needs, especially in terms of food security. The humanitarian response usually focuses on food availability and access, while food processing is often neglected. In this framework, cooking technologies play an essential role. Many scientific studies and international reports address the issue of clean cooking technologies dissemination in developing countries. Less information is instead available in the literature for the specific case of humanitarian contexts, such as refugee and Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps, or informal humanitarian settlements. Unsustainable and inefficient cooking technologies or practices can have direct impact on food preparation, and indirect effects on local biomass resources overexploitation, health of local people, and social conflicts between hosted and hosting communities. This study aims at presenting a systematic review of both scientific and grey literature on cooking technologies and related practices, including a selection of experiences from the implementation of cooking devices in humanitarian projects and programmes. The Authors conclude that the attention to the problem is arising, but still very few information is available, in terms of scientific research
Towards an holistic approach to energy access in humanitarian settings: the SET4food project from technology transfer to knowledge sharing
No full textThe increasing number of displaced people in the world not only requires rapid humanitarian actions, but also attention to host communities and a holistic and long-term vision. Energy has not been really considered a major topic in people displacement, yet, resulting in negative impacts on several aspects, including food security. New solutions are required, in terms of energy planning, technology development, and adaptation, as well as decision making, sensitization, training, and support to humanitarian actors. The Sustainable Energy Technologies for food security (SET4food) project phase 1 (2014–2015) developed a number of tools to support identification, adaptation, and introduction of appropriate solutions, tested some pilot innovations in critical areas, and promoted the enhancement of humanitarian response capability in the energy sector via an extensive capacity building program. In addition, a second phase of the project (2015–2018) fostered networking and collaboration between the main actors by developing an e-sharing platform, called ENERGYCoP, including a global not-for-profit community of practices for humanitarian professionals working in the energy sector. The platform may enable the shift from traditional “technological transfer” to a more participative approach on co-design and technological cooperation activated by a knowledge sharing mechanism. This paper outlines the main challenges and the achieved results of SET4food, providing recommendations for researchers and practitioners on the way forward

Alternatives to gas flaring: a multi-criteria decision approach applied to a case study in Russia
No full textDuring recent years, the issue of gas flaring has become an increasingly relevant problem for the international community.
The claim to more sustainable development offers a renewed prospective in the observation of gas flaring and emphasizes
that recovering the associated gas could induce economic, environmental and social benefit. The true core of the issue, as is
widely accepted, is not a lack of appropriate technologies, but in the number of criteria involved, which makes it difficult to
identify a list of alternatives and connecting all the involved stakeholders in the negotiation process. The complexity of this
problem can be mitigated using a decision-making method. The objective of the present work is to identify and formulate a
supportive decision system based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process. Application of the model to a real case underlines the
strengths and weaknesses of the model, leading to the conclusion that a selection of the most sustainable alternatives needs
to be based on a number of criteria that need to be recognized and agreed amongst the stakeholders
