Abstract:
Habitat for Humanity (HFH) Florida is best known for their coordination of helping hand for the building of affordable homes in communities all across the world. Although effective at their mission, the organization had been procuring supplies the same way for decades, with no major analyses or innovations to their processes. HFH Florida’s CEO, Barbara Inman, decided to reach out to the University of South Florida’s (USF) Council for Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP) for an analysis of their current decentralized procurement methodology. The group was also tasked with providing recommendations to the way HFH procures home-building supplies. USF CSCMP gathered and analyzed available purchasing data from 11 HFH locations across Florida, using Tableau as a statistical visualization tool for HFH’s CEO.

Abstract:
Homeownership, labeled as the American Dream, confers several benefits to the individual homeowner and their children, the homeowners’ community, and the national economy. Several policies and programs have been established to promote homeownership. One of such organizations is Houston Habitat, a subsidiary of Habitat for Humanity International. A sampling procedure was implemented to examine the perceptions of homeowners on previous residence and their current Habitat home.

A pesquisa em tela trata da paisagem da Vila de Paranapiacaba, que está localizada a aproximadamente 50 km da capital paulista, no Município de Santo André, São Paulo. Paranapiacaba é considerada patrimônio ambiental, histórico, tecnológico e arquitetônico, tendo sua origem ligada à instalação do sistema funicular inglês na região, em meados do século XIX. Trata-se de um conjunto arquitetônico tombado nas instâncias municipal, estadual e federal e indicado para pertencer ao Patrimônio Mundial pela UNESCO. Todas essas características fazem com que a experiência de seu habitar seja peculiar, sobretudo no que concerne às particularidades do tombamento, dos bens imóveis (a casa, o conjunto) e móveis (artefatos), pelos órgãos de proteção que visam à preservação e manutenção do patrimônio cultural. Por essa razão, o trabalho em tela tem como objetivo apresentar a experiência vivida dos moradores junto à paisagem. Acreditamos que a natureza intrínseca do habitar complica-se, ainda mais, quando a casa é “tombada”. Como, então, o fenômeno da paisagem se apresenta nessa circunstância? Esse fenômeno, que amalgama a expressão do patrimônio habitado, eleva exponencialmente a experiência vivida na casa. As ações foram realizadas em colaboração com os moradores, poder público e órgãos de proteção ao patrimônio cultural. Por tratar-se de um complexo sítio histórico, arquitetônico e tecnológico, de contexto ferroviário, com poucas intervenções de trabalhos arqueológicos, muitos dos vestígios materiais estão de posse dos moradores, que realizam, eles próprios, a curadoria de seus achados. Esses objetos jazem espalhados pela vila, seja nos quintais das casas, nos “lixões”, nas ruas e em outras dependências e/ou instalações da SPR (São Paulo Railway). Com o tempo, os moradores passaram a guardar esses objetos em suas casas, incorporando-os ao seu mobiliário doméstico. Sabendo das implicâncias implícitas em tal fenômeno, articulamos os diversos sujeitos sociais envolvidos, procurando, de forma dialógica e transversal, realizar atuações no âmbito da educação patrimonial. As reflexões aqui levantadas dizem respeito aos processos relacionados às ressignificações dos artefatos arqueológicos. Tomamos tal situação como contextual, cuja prática é uma forma de fortalecer identidades, por meio de novas narrativas, que se canalizam na cultura material.
This work deals with the landscape of the village of Paranapiacaba, which is located approximately 50 km from the city of São Paulo, in the city of Santo André, São Paulo. Paranapiacaba is considered an environmental, historical, technological and architectural patrimony, having its origin linked to the installation of the English funicular system in the region, in the middle of the 19th century. It is an architectural complex registered in the municipal, state and federal instances and indicated to be listed as one of the UNESCO Cultural World Heritage sites. All these characteristics make the experience of its dwelling peculiar, especially concerning the particularities of its heritage listing, its real estate (the house, the set) and its movable property (artifacts), by the protective organs that aim at the preservation and maintenance of the cultural heritage. For this reason, this work aims to present the experience lived by the residents along with the landscape. We believe that the intrinsic nature of dwelling becomes even more complicated when the house is a "heritage listed place." How, then, does the phenomenon of landscape present itself in this circumstance? This phenomenon, which amalgamates the expression of the inhabited patrimony, exponentially increases the experience lived in the house. The actions were carried out in collaboration with residents, public authorities and organs of protection of cultural heritage. As it is a complex historical, architectural and technological site, with a railway context, with few interventions of archaeological works, many of the material remains are in the possession of the residents, who curate their findings by themselves. These objects lie scattered throughout the village, either in the backyards of houses, in the garbage dumps, on the streets and in other facilities of the SPR (São Paulo Railway). Over time, residents began to store these objects in their homes, incorporating them into their home furnishings. Knowing the implications implicit in this phenomenon, we articulated the various social subjects involved, seeking, in a dialogical and transversal way, to perform actions in the area of heritage education. The reflections raised here refer to the processes related to the re-significances of the archaeological artifacts. We take this situation as contextual, whose practice is a way of strengthening identities, through new narratives, which are channeled into the material culture.

No Brasil, a pesquisa jurídica quase sempre é desenvolvida por profissionais institucionalizados. É sobre o que acontece neste campo profissional que se concentra esta pesquisa. Esta pesquisa interpretativa constrói enquanto objeto de estudo as ideias filosóficas que orientam o trabalho concreto dos cientistas jurídicos humanistas no âmbito da Faculdade de Direito do Recife (FDR). A formação jurídica humanista foi tradição na instituição por mais de um século a partir da sua fundação (1827). Com fundamento na orientação metodológica da sociologia do conhecimento, em especial do referencial elaborado por Bourdieu, foi possível identificar essas ideias de base no seu processo de construção e difusão institucional ao longo do século XX. Nesse período de tempo, percebeu-se uma desvalorização do capital simbólico desses profissionais num contexto de fortalecimento do habitus tecnológico no campo jurídico profissional. Sob a orientação metodológica do estudo sistemático, isolaram-se igualmente para a contemplação científica as pesquisas elaboradas por Nelson Saldanha. O trabalho desse agente institucional é considerado em caráter exemplar no âmbito da produção jurídica não dogmática e humanista da instituição. A pesquisa heterodoxa desse profissional humanista foi examinada no contexto do fluxo de ideias institucionalmente mediadas. Percebeu-se que a característica fenomenológica da pesquisa realizada pelo agente pode ser relacionada a um referencial filosófico existencial desenvolvido por diversas gerações de pesquisadores no âmbito institucional e, mais amplamente, no campo intelectual da cidade do Recife. Em termos epistemológicos, esse fundamento filosófico existencial conduz o autor à elaboração de uma pesquisa jurídica com características antropológicas nas décadas de 1960 e 1970.

Abstract:
A digitalização do território e a sua transformação em fluxos informativos (DI FELICE et al, 2012) resultaram em um outro modo de ser sobre a Terra, de ser-no-mundo contemporâneo, mais particularmente no que o sociólogo Massimo Di Felice (2009) define com o conceito de \"habitar atópico\", desenvolvido a partir da pensamento de Heidegger. Para ele, mais do que residir, o habitar refere-se a um relacionar-se, a um comunicar, caracterizado pelas interações em rede dos diversos coletivos humanos e não-humanos, tecnológicos, territoriais. Assim, mais do que a reprodução digital do território, trata-se de um novo ambiente, um \"metaterritório\", metageográfico e informativo, portanto, dinâmico e manipulável, cujas dimensões são sempre reticulares e indelimitáveis (DI FELICE et al, 2012). É nesse panorama que se pretende esboçar os caminhos para a proposição do conceito de \"ecopoiese\", entendida como uma ecologia que, ao contrário do que o sentido etimológico possa induzir, é do âmbito do atópico e do indizível. Seu oikos não se localiza e seu logos não se explica. Essa ecologia é pós-humanista e assim sendo, o somente humano não a define e nenhuma perspectiva única a reivindica. Nessa ecologia, as interações entre humano, natureza e tecnologia comunicativa assumem um caráter complexo e produzem sempre agenciamentos hibridizantes, divergindo de quanto preconizado pelas interações somente técnicas atribuídas à Internet das Coisas
The digitalization of the territory and its transformation into information flows (DI FELICE et al, 2012) resulted in a further way of being on earth, of being-in the contemporary world, more particularly in what the sociologist Massimo Di Felice (2009) defines with the concept of \"atopic inhabit\", developed from the thought of Heidegger. For him, rather than reside, dwelling refers to a relate to, to a communicate with, characterized by networked interactions of the human and non-human, technological, territorial collectives. Thus, more than the digital reproduction of the territory, it is a new environment, a \"metaterritory, a \"metageographical\" and informative one, and therefore dynamic and manipulable, whose dimensions are always reticular and unlimited (DI FELICE et al, 2012). It is in this scenario that is intended to outline the ways to propose the concept of \"ecopoiese\", here understood as an ecology that, instead of what the etymological sense may suggest, is the scope of the atopic and unspeakable. Your oikos is not localized and its logos is not explained. This ecology is post-humanist and, therefore, what is only human cannot define it and no single perspective can claim it as theirs. In this ecology, the interactions between human, nature and communication technology play a complex character and always produce hybridized assemblages which are different from merely technical interactions attributed to the Internet of Things

Abstract:
AbstractThree organizing agentic modalities consistently occur, namely, individuals, relational groups, and collectives of various kinds. Digital augmentation transforms these modalities. Particularly, the infusion of artificial agency compresses traditional hierarchies and layers. It also strengthens organizing capabilities, enabling new agentic forms and functions. Yet human agency is likely to remain layered and relatively uncompressed. Therefore, augmented agentic modality could be either more fluid and flattened, or internally conflicted. This chapter examines these developments and highlights the changing nature of procedural habit and routine, as key mediators of agentic modality, mindful that habit forms the scaffold for individual personality, and collective routine for collectivity. When these patterns of action are digitalized, they become more dynamic and generative. Although here, too, risks and dilemmas emerge, regarding the potential divergence and convergence of agentic modalities.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractTo monitor and manage the dilemmas of digitalization, augmented agents must self-regulate in a collaborative fashion. Artificial agents are advancing rapidly in these respects and some are fully self-generative. They are increasingly capable of complex, fast, sensitive self-regulation. In consequence, augmented agents will have the potential for effective self-regulation and self-supervision. However, human self-regulation is often simplified and sluggish and lacks sensitivity. People rely on habit, routine, and docility, and often with good reasons. Yet, as noted, artificial agents are increasingly hyperactive and hypersensitive, compared to humans. When both agents combine, therefore, artificial self-regulatory functioning could be complex, fast, and precise, while human functioning is relatively simple, sluggish, and heuristic. The result could be self-regulatory divergence or convergence and possibly dysfunction. Further implications then follow for self-efficacy, task engagement, and motivational strength.

Abstract:
AbstractAn understanding of the different microbial constellations or microbiomes, which every habitat and every organism harbor, will be the key to addressing many of the challenges humanity will face in the twenty-first century. Such comprehension could launch several innovations relating to natural and cultural capital, including historical and artistic heritage. In relation to cultural heritage, microorganisms are mainly known through their role as deteriogens, but the features creating damage can be exploited positively, attaining more sustainable restoration strategies, in accordance with the principles of compatibility and retreatability deriving from reflections on the Cultural Heritage inspired by the Charter of Venice (International charter for the Conservation and restoration of monument and sites (the Venice Chart 1964). In: ICOMOS, IInd International Congress of Architects and Technicians of Historic Monuments, 1964) onwards. In this article, we show a series of case studies, using both wild-type microorganisms and plant-based extracts, providing a comprehensive proof of concept of the feasibility of biotechnological solutions for a more sustainable restoration strategy, to replace the products in use which are often dangerous for operators, aggressive for works of art and no longer compatible with the environment. The overview of the case studies presented, many of which are still unpublished, responds to the need to go beyond the state of the art and has entirely sprung from suggestions by restorers, interested in learning about potential innovations and strongly determined to introduce non-toxic products in their daily work. In this perspective, the case studies dealt with two topics: bio-cleaning and disinfection. Noteworthy results were obtained on a platform of different types of artworks and different materials with compatible, harmless and selective products.

Abstract:
AbstractRecent studies in biology, ecology, and medicine make it clear that relationships between living organisms are complex and comprise different forms of collaboration and communication in particular in getting food. It turns even out that relations of collaboration and valuing are more important than those of aggression and predation. I will outline the ways organisms select and value specific items in their network of living and non-living entities. No organism eats everything; all organisms prefer certain foods, companions, and habitats. Relations between organisms are established on the basis of communication, exchange of signs, actions and goods, through mutual learning processes on all levels of life. Micro, meso and macro organisms participate in this process of valuing and communication. Animals and plants therefore show features that were traditionally attributed only to humans, like selfless assistance. The usual distinction between humans and other living beings on the basis of human’s sensitivity for altruism, language and values crumbles down due to the circumstance that also non-human living beings are prone to selfless assistance, communication and valuing.

Abstract:
The first two fundamental principles in the ASME Code of Ethics are that” engineers uphold and advance the integrity, honor and dignity of the engineering profession by: I. Using their knowledge and skill for the advancement of human welfare; II. Being honest and impartial, and serving with fidelity the public, their employers and clients…” These principles involve the concept of “the public good” and are properly part of engineering ethics — yet it is difficult to find a good place in the curriculum to address these principles. This paper will present the idea of using community service in engineering as a context for teaching this aspect of engineering ethics. The author has considerable experience in community service projects — related to engineering courses in which project work is required and graded, and also related to projects that involve purely voluntary efforts. Specific examples of projects that have been used will be given. The projects have also been presented as part of the larger Honor Concept that the author has been instrumental in developing for the School of Engineering at Grand Valley State University. “The habit of apprehending a technology in its completeness: this is the essence of technological humanism, and this is what we should expect education in higher technology to achieve. I believe it could be achieved by making specialist studies the core around which are grouped liberal studies which are relevant to those specialist studies. But they must be relevant; the path to culture should be through a man’s specialism, not by-passing it…A student who can weave his technology into the fabric of society can claim to have a liberal education; a student who cannot weave his technology into the fabric of society cannot claim even to be a good technologist.” Lord Ashby, Technology and the Academics

Abstract:
Much of recent human development has come at the expense of Nature - undermining ecosystems, fragmenting habitats, reducing biodiversity, and increasing our exposure and vulnerability to emerging diseases. For example, as we push deeper into tropical forests, and convert more land to agriculture and human settlements, the rate at which people encounter new pathogens that may trigger the next public health, social and economic crisis, is likely to increase. Expanding and strengthening our understanding of the links between nature and human health is especially important in Africa, where nature brings economic prosperity and wellbeing to more than a billion people. Pandemics such as COVID are just one of a growing number of health challenges that humanity is facing as a result of our one-sided and frequently destructive relationship with nature. This report aims to inform professionals and decision-makers on how health outcomes emerge from human interactions with the natural world and identify how efforts to preserve the natural environment and sustainably manage natural resources could have an impact on human and animal health. While the report focuses on the African continent, it will also be of relevance to other areas of the world facing similar environmental pressures.
