<p>As humanity faces converging crises—from climate change and biodiversity loss to pandemics and food insecurity—it is increasingly clear that the health of people is inseparable from the health of the planet. Planetary Health offers an integrated, transdisciplinary framework that addresses these interconnected challenges by placing human well-being within the context of Earth’s natural systems.</p>
<p>While COP30 (to be held in Belém, Brazil in 2025) represents a critical political moment to advance climate action globally, education remains a powerful yet underleveraged lever for long-term transformation. Embedding Planetary Health into education systems - from primary schools to professional training - can empower citizens, leaders, and communities with the knowledge, values, and skills necessary to co-create a sustainable and equitable future.</p>
<p>This event seeks to explore the role of <strong>Planetary Health education</strong> in preparing societies for the urgent transitions demanded by the climate crisis, aligning with COP30’s agenda and the broader Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and building upon Planetary Health Educational Framework, developed by the Planetary Health Alliance. The participants, organized into panels, will address Planetary Health education initiatives at different scales, ages, contexts, and geographies, discussing success factors and challenges.</p>

    <title>Planetability. Relations of Health, Healing, and Cohabitation</title>

    <content:encoded xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"><![CDATA[<p><strong><a href="https://www.iea.usp.br/eventos/planetability-cohabitation" class="external-link">Clique aqui para a versão em Português</a></strong></p>
<p>With COP30 convening in Belém, on the edge of the Amazon basin, we are reminded that the question of <strong>habitability</strong> – of what makes Earth a home for life – can no longer be taken for granted. Extreme climate events, toxic landscapes, and deepening socio-ecological fractures expose the fragility of the systems that sustain planetary life. The <strong><i>Planetary Health</i></strong> movement has shown that the health of human beings cannot be separated from the health of the Earth’s living systems. Yet, our current trajectory points toward a profound <i>habitability crisis</i>, in which the planetary conditions of human and more-than-human cohabitation are under threat.</p>
<p>This two-day event brings together scholars, artists, and practitioners to think and act from within this crisis. Rooted in the frameworks of planetary health and planetary thinking, it seeks to explore the interconnected crises of environment, society, and meaning that define our time, asking: <i>How can we inhabit a damaged planet? What forms of knowledge, care, and transformative thinking are needed to guarantee cohabitation between human and more-than-human life</i>.</p>
<p>The event proposes planetability as a critical concept – a lens through which to rethink the conditions for sustaining more-than-only-human life amid collapse, inequity, and transformation. Rather than viewing planetability as a static or technical issue, participants will approach it as a relational, ethical, and aesthetic practice, bridging scientific, indigenous, and artistic perspectives on what it means to inhabit the Earth.</p>

<p>Com a COP30 se reunindo em Belém, na borda da bacia amazônica, somos lembrados de que a questão da <strong>habitabilidade</strong> – do que torna a Terra um lar para a vida – não pode mais ser considerada garantida. Eventos climáticos extremos, paisagens tóxicas e fraturas socioecológicas cada vez mais profundas expõem a fragilidade dos sistemas que sustentam a vida planetária. O movimento <strong><i>Saúde Planetária</i></strong> demonstrou que a saúde dos seres humanos não pode ser separada da saúde dos sistemas vivos da Terra. No entanto, nossa trajetória atual aponta para uma profunda <i>crise de habitabilidade</i>, na qual as condições planetárias de coabitação humana e não humana estão ameaçadas.</p>
<p>Este evento de dois dias reúne acadêmicos, artistas e praticantes para pensar e agir a partir desta crise. Enraizado nas estruturas da saúde planetária e do pensamento planetário, o evento busca explorar as crises interconectadas de meio ambiente, sociedade e significado que definem nosso tempo, questionando: <i>Como podemos habitar um planeta danificado? Que formas de conhecimento, cuidado e pensamento transformador são necessárias para garantir a coabitação entre a vida humana e a vida mais que humana?</i></p>
<p>O evento propõe a planetabilidade como um conceito crítico – uma lente através da qual se pode repensar as condições para sustentar a vida mais que humana em meio ao colapso, à desigualdade e à transformação. Em vez de encarar a planetabilidade como uma questão estática ou técnica, os participantes a abordarão como uma prática relacional, ética e estética, conectando perspectivas científicas, indígenas e artísticas sobre o que significa habitar a Terra.</p>]]></content:encoded>

    <title>Impacts of Digital Technology on Society are addressed by "Estudos Avançados" #110</title>
    <link>https://www.iea.usp.br/en/news/journal-issue-110</link>
    <description> </description>
    <content:encoded xmlns:content="http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/content/"><![CDATA[<p><a href="https://www.iea.usp.br/en/revista" class="external-link"><img src="https://www.iea.usp.br/imagens/capa-da-revista-estudos-avancados-110" alt="Capa da revista Estudos Avançados 110" class="image-right" title="Capa da revista Estudos Avançados 110" /></a></p>
<p><span>"The current levels of technological development place the old dilemmas between the positive or perverse effects of the use of technologies in all fields of social existence under new perspectives," says sociologist </span><a href="https://www.iea.usp.br/en/persons/researchers/sergio-adorno" class="external-link">Sérgio Adorno</a><span>, editor of IEA's journal </span><i><a href="https://www.iea.usp.br/en/journal" class="external-link">Estudos Avançados</a></i><span>, when presenting the dossier "Human Implications of Technosciences," the main one of its 110th issue. </span><span>The </span><span>digital version is now available, free of charge, at the <a class="external-link" href="https://www.scielo.br/j/ea/i/2024.v38n110/">Scientific Electronic Library Online</a> (Portuguese only)</span><span>.</span></p>
<p><span>Adorno emphasizes that the opening article of the dossier, "Diagnostics of Contemporaneity," by semiologist Lucia Santaella, former holder of the Oscar Sala Chair (a partnership of the IEA with the </span>Brazilian Internet Steering Committee),<span> highlights the characteristics of the so-called second era of the internet, "characterized by big data, the explosion of data, and datafication." The author identifies five attributes of this era: hybridity, temporal entanglement, omnipresent interactivity, acceleration, and discursive shattering.</span></p>
<p><strong>Fragmentation</strong></p>
<p>According to Santaella, "the political, cultural, and psychic consequences of these disruptions are many and profound, including the fragmentation and dispersion of old concepts of people, populism, public space, public debate, etc." For her, "ill-informed, rhetorical, and nostalgic sensationalism does nothing to help facing the challenges." As a militant for the advancement of knowledge throughout her entire career, she defends the motto "to understand well to act better, even though this implies engagement in the ethics of the intellect that costs time, dedication, and a lot of study of what counts against the intellectual farces that breed in self-indulgent gregariousness."</p>
<p><strong>Consumption and hypervigilance</strong></p>
<p><span>Adorno states that the other six articles in the dossier seek to dialogue with Santaella's theoretical-empirical perspective through the analysis of various themes. One of them is the articulation between the experience of consumption as subjectivity and the transformations in global markets over the last 40 years, the subject of “Data Capitalism and Aesthetic Wars,” by Abel Reis and Silvia Piva.</span></p>
<p><span>In "</span><span>Sociotechnical Silencing and the Limits of <i>Instrumental Power</i></span><span>," Alcides Peron and Anderson Röhe discuss how electronic resources enable not only hypervigilance, but also risk classification and predictive devices. They warn that these systems, despite acting in crime prediction and risk management, provide the State with a non-violent form of power focused on shaping individuals' behaviors and decisions.</span></p>
<p><span>However, digital technologies also enable innovative educational perspectives. An example of this is discussed in the article "</span><span>Aesthetics, Playability, and Narrative for the Anthropocene</span><span>," in which Clayton Policarpo, Guilherme Cestari, and Luiz Napole study two video games that, through immersion, premises, and </span><span>proposed </span><span>critical scenarios, relate environmental impacts and dystopian perspectives to the future of the human species, a perspective in which "some of the epistemological, ethical, and identity challenges of the Anthropocene are present."</span></p>
<p><span><strong>Flying car</strong></span></p>
<p><span>A matter of the moment is the technological context of development of the so-called flying car, whose already developed and future models tend to be autonomous (without a pilot). Magaly Prado and Gustavo Galbiatti are the authors of "A Lot of Hot Air? A Feasibility Analysis of Flying Cars as Emission-Free Autonomous Machines." Based on interviews with experts and related bibliography, they analyze technical issues, environmental sustainability, and economic viability of the new vehicle.</span></p>
<p>Adorno comments that the dossier also revisits "old questions regarding the impact of digital technology in the Brazilian context, focusing on its virtues arising from the expansion of sharing and access to information for a greater number of citizens, but also its dangers in terms of possible effects of domination."</p>
<p>The final article in the dossier, "<span>Technototalitarianism and the Risks for Democracy and Individuals</span><span>," by Eder Van Pelt, addresses the risks of legitimacy in the exercise of power with the use of new technologies in a possible technocracy that makes the political use of technologies as instruments for controlling individuals' activities. He defends the need to think about effective means for the integration between specialized technology systems and democracy, which leads to concrete possibilities for a more consistent and participatory public debate, especially with the inclusion of all those affected by these new control devices.</span></p>
<p><strong>Literature</strong></p>
<p><span>The issue also contains two sets of texts. One of them is the "Presences" section, a collection of "suggestive and rich essays on literary criticism," according to Adorno, as well as articles on gender issues. The essays on literature address the following themes: a self-criticism by Euclides da Cunha regarding the meaning of the War of Canudos; precariousness and memory in the fiction of Nélida Piñon and Ana Teresa Torres; the edition of an unpublished poem by Caldas Barbosa; the decomposition of the detective novel genre into a short story by Machado de Assis; the origins of poetry in French by Sérgio Milliet; and the theatrical scene in Bahia in 1551/1552 produced by a Jesuit group linked to Father Manuel da Nóbrega.</span></p>
<p><strong>Women's participation</strong></p>
<p>The meanings and psychological transformations that accompany women's political participation are discussed based on the life trajectory of one of the participants in the World March of Women (a movement started in 2000), feminist and anti-racist activist Helena Nogueira, who died in 2020. Based on <i>Das Kapital</i>, by Karl Marx, and "Fetishism – Colonizing the Other," by Vladimir Safatle, a further text discusses the "fetishism of the equal, one of the ramifications of commodity fetishism," based on the relationships between the characters from the film "The Second Mother," directed by Anna Muylaert. The section ends with an article about the emancipation of women and the presence of science and mathematics in the newspaper <i>O Quinze de Novembro do Sexo Feminino</i>, a "fortnightly, literary, recreational, news, and political journal" published in Rio de Janeiro in 1889 and 1890 by Francisca Senhorinha de Motta Diniz.</p>
<p><strong>Human evolution</strong></p>
<p><span>The section "Evolution, Nemory, and Discrimination" presents three articles. The first, with the participation of paleoanthropologist Walter Neves, a senior professor at the IEA, provides a synthesis of human evolution with special attention to issues of the Middle Pleistocene (the period when </span><i>Homo sapiens</i><span> emerged), advances in the area, and the Brazilian contribution to the topic. The second critically analyzes how the legacy of the professors of the French Mission at the former Faculty of Philosophy, Sciences, and Languages and Literature at USP became a relevant aspect of memorialistics among participants in the history course. The third theme of the section is the scarcity of conservatives in American academia, with an assessment of the relative strength of four hypotheses for this: meritocracy (less academic aptitude), discrimination, conversion (the environment inducing to the left), and self-selection (voluntary option in not joining the academy).</span></p>
<p>The issue is completed with reviews of four books: "Arrabalde: In Search of the Amazon," by João Moreira Salles; "The Whiteness Pact," by Cida Bento; "The Margins of Fiction," by Jacques Rancière; and "Conflict Management and Justice: Small Claims in a US Court," by Ann Arbor.</p>

The intention, as always, is to collaborate with the "formulation and implementation of government policies aimed at overcoming problems that affect quality of life and reducing social inequalities." The <span>digital version is now available, free of charge, at the <a class="external-link" href="https://www.scielo.br/j/ea/i/2023.v37n109/">Scientific Electronic Library Online</a> (Portuguese only).</span></p>
<p>The interdisciplinarity of the analyzes is demonstrated in the opening article of the first dossier, entitled "<span>Cardiovascular Health and Housing: An Important Dialogue Held in Precarious Settlements in São Paulo."</span> Authored by experts in geography, urbanism, and pathology, the study analyzed data from residents of São Paulo who died due to diseases of the circulatory system <span>from 2010 to 2016 </span><span>or were hospitalized through the Brazilian public health service (SUS) due to the same </span><span>illnesses </span><span>from 2011 to 2016</span><span>. The type of housing settlement of individuals (subnormal, precarious, or regular), age, and sex have been taken into account.</span></p>
<p>The difference in cardiovascular health between the three types of settlements assessed through the proportions of hospital admissions and mortality rates has shown that almost 1.7 million people in São Paulo are at a great disadvantage in relation to the remaining 85% of the population .</p>
<p>Although precarious housing is "the cause or a determining factor of many physical and mental pathologies," another study in the dossier demonstrates that "the legal health framework in Brazil restricts or even prohibits the use of health resources in housing issues, delimits the composition of health teams to medical-hospital professions, as well as does not consider the use of resources from other budgetary functions in the provision of housing for specific health purposes."</p>
<p>Such delimitations should be removed in situations where there is scientific evidence that the housing issue is a social determinant of health, according to the recommendation of the article "<span>Why Investment and Focus on Housing Issues are Also a Measure of Health</span>."</p>
<p><strong>Vulnerability</strong></p>
<p>One must also consider the multiple vulnerabilities of peripheral territories, which makes intervention in these spaces a challenge that needs to be faced from the logic of complex problems, as "they do not have a single, linear solution to overcome them," warns a third study. Based on work developed by the Tide Setubal Foundation on the outskirts of São Miguel Paulista, in São Paulo, the article "<span>Intersectoriality and Urban Improvements in the Outskirts of São Paulo: The Case of São Miguel Paulista"</span> proposes that intersectorality should be promoted from the public budget, impact measurement, and community protagonism.</p>
<p>The dossier also presents a study on the history of ideas regarding the conditions for the development of individuals. The article "<span>Education, Health, and Progress: Discussions on Environmental Effects on Child Development (1930-1980)"</span> shows how there was a "strong association between promoting the development of individuals and social progress" in the covered period.</p>
<p>"It was understood that public investments in creating better health and education conditions for children would favor the country’s advancement." School was seen as "an environment conducive to the healthy development and civilization of children."</p>
<p>In terms of health, this development perspective has become vulnerability in many peripheral areas where the control of the territory is exercised by organized crime. The situation is exemplified in a study of a basic health unit located in an area dominated by drug trafficking.</p>
<p>Based on a field diary and open interviews with different interlocutors in the territory of a peripheral health unit in a medium-sized municipality in the state of São Paulo, the work pointed out that, "given the absence or insufficiency of the State in territories of social vulnerability, trafficking can function both as an agent of precarious working relationships between health teams and the community, and as a provider of support and protection mechanisms for the population, mediation, and management of the population's daily relationships, including their relationship with health equipment.</p>
<p dir="ltr"><span><strong>Health Promotion</strong></span></p>
<p>Even in the face of countless social vulnerabilities, it is necessary to find ways to promote health. It becomes relevant to understand the different interpretations of health promotion, despite the fact that the field is going through a process of institutionalization and strengthening. An article by public health experts discusses these interpretations, whose diversity demonstrates the need to delve deeper into some topics, such as the role of the health sector, behavioral change, and individual approaches, according to the researchers.</p>
<p>In their study, they present other ways of understanding these themes through the contribution of workers, primary care managers, and experts on the issue. The idea is to "expand the possibilities of practicing health promotion in primary care".</p>
<p>The work methodology has included semi-structured interviews with experts and consultation with municipal managers and workers in primary care using the electronic form FormSUS. 13 experts were interviewed between November 2017 and February 2018. The interviewees joined the Working Group on Health Promotion and Sustainable Development (GTPSDS), linked to the Brazilian Public Health Association (ABRASCO), "a group that defends action in social determination and does not restrict itself to risk and protective factors for chronic non-communicable diseases (NCDs)".</p>
<p>Another study in the dossier has analyzed the impact of the implementation of cycle paths in the city of São Paulo on the practice of leisure-time physical activities and the correlations of this practice with high blood pressure rates. A group of 1,431 people have been evaluated, living within a maximum of 1 km of cycle paths. The work highlights the need to improve environmental conditions (implementation of cycle paths, for example) in areas of greatest socioeconomic need in the city in order to generate greater opportunities to practice physical activity and the consequent reduction in rates of high blood pressure and other chronic diseases.</p>
<p><strong>Well-being</strong></p>
<p>Improving quality of life is also the subject of another article, which brings together notions of well-being in four main matrices: that of indigenous worldviews, that of the Latin Americanist utopian thought, the state-owned one, and the socio-environmental one. According to the authors, these matrices "hold convergent aspects among themselves, forming a common core that emulates new philosophical, economic, and political proposals as alternatives to the model of life, work, and relationship with the environment produced by neoliberal capitalism."</p>
<p>The autonomy of people under guardianship is also discussed in the dossier. A study by researchers in the field of law examines the possibility of substitute consent in the context of health in cases of people in a guardianship situation to determine whether the legal representative of people with disabilities would also be allowed to decide on existential aspects.</p>
<p><span>The dossier ends with an article on the socio-environmental reality of implementing reverse medication logistics to minimize drug contamination and achieve the relevant Sustainable Development Goal. The study highlights control, monitoring, and environmental education actions to reduce the impacts of pharmaceutical waste and promote sustainability.</span></p>
<p><strong>Nutrition</strong></p>
<p>The first article in the dossier entitled "Food Security" aims to contribute to the analysis of the current scenario on food insecurity in Brazil, based on studies carried out by two IEA research groups (Nutrition and Poverty, and Planetary Health) in partnership with the AgriBio Axis of the Center for Artificial Intelligence (C4AI) at USP.</p>
<p>The contribution of agricultural production to improving this scenario <span>in cities </span><span>is explained in an article about the results of the debate Urban Agriculture and Food and Nutritional Security: Organic Food in School Food, which took place at the 11th Service, Research, and Public Policy Seminar. The event was organized by the Nutrition and Poverty Research Group and the Urban Agriculture Study Group, both based at the IEA.</span></p>
<p>The set of texts includes the analysis of a practical health and food care project for families with children and adolescents in situations of malnutrition. The work dealt with the "short production-commercialization chain" of food to support project actions involving families with children and adolescents served by the Nutritional Recovery and Education Center (CREN).</p>
<p>A recent topic in the spectrum of eating habits, flexitarianism, is also present in the dossier, with a study on the factors that lead flexitarians to different levels of reduction in meat consumption.</p>
<p><span><strong>Urbanism</strong></span></p>
<p>Through a 2009 municipal law, strategies for adapting to climate change and disaster management were established in the city of São Paulo. The initial article in the dossier entitled "Cities and Technologies" analyzes the effectiveness of the legal framework of this policy, its articulation with other relevant standards and environmental law, and how its governance has been constructed.</p>
<p>Climate change and other factors, such as <i>El Niño</i>, have a direct impact on water availability, as demonstrated by the current drought affecting several municipalities in the Amazon, which lack policies and structures to face the problem. Hence the importance of municipalities having greater participation in the National Water Resources Management System (SINGREH), warn the authors of the article "<span>Water Governance in Brazil: What is the Role of City Governments?</span>".</p>
<p>In addition to weak participation in the system, researchers indicate that municipalities do not have a policy on water resources. Another problem highlighted is the fact that legal reforms regarding water resources tend to further weaken the role of municipalities in the SINGREH.</p>
<p>Nature-based solutions are also present in the dossier, for instance in an article that addresses the integration of this type of solution in a brownfield revitalization project. Brownfield is an underutilized and degraded urban area whose transformation provides benefits to the population.</p>
<p>The evolutionary process of cities is approached in a philosophical and technological way. An article discusses some concepts created by French philosopher Michel Foucault (1926-1984), such as discipline and biopower, and applies them to the history of Brazilian urbanism, especially in the cases of Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo. Another text examines the technologies that have led to an urban revolution with the emergence of smart cities, due to the proliferation of continuously connected electronic equipment, which allows managing the urban structure in a more efficient and optimized way, say the authors.</p>
