Urban Science – Integrated Learning for Smart Cities
Italian
Italy
Over two-thirds of the European population live in cities. Enabling those cities to deliver services sustainably while keeping their citizens safe, healthy, prosperous and well-informed is amongst the most important challenges in this century. \r\nThe Urban Science European project is an education response to this, to improve the teaching of scientific inquiry and investigation so that students develop the competences to actively contribute to creating healthy cities.\r\nUrban Science works through outdoor inquiry-based learning where urban areas become living-laboratories that help students explore how science can create healthier and sustainable places to live. It is solutions based; placing a strong emphasis on creativity and problem solving to ensure scientific understanding can be applied in a meaningful context.

Economic Dimensions of Environmental Citizenship
English
Slovakia
This chapter introduces economic approaches, studies and contributions to the global discussion on the relationship between economics and the environment. These relations are continuously influenced by the activity of individuals and communities. The social dimension is evident and mutual interactions between society and environment are investigated in many fields of science. Human deci-sions and behaviours have consequences for the environment which change in time and its resulting state impacts subsequent human attitudes and behaviour. Widely applied principles of mainstream economics face criticism from different platforms. This chapter also focuses on the argumentation of mainstream eco-nomics that are contrary to the more interdisciplinary economic approaches to environmental issues. The main contradictions in such a debate come from a dif-ferent value system of individuals. Through diverse stakeholder groups, the eco-nomic dimension of Environmental Citizenship stretches from a local to a global level. The transformation of economic systems requires an interdisciplinary ap-proach to overcome political and social barriers.
