No. of bitstreams: 1 Rômulo do Amaral Russi.pdf: 3035881 bytes, checksum: 440fcf568f8fccbb904b4f95fe0e2d56 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-06-26 / The parklet, the focus of this dissertation, is considered a medium-sized urban furniture composed of small urban equipment. It can be designed and made, not only with reforestation or recycled woods; But also with iron, wire, resistant plastics and recycled, and these are reused after being discarded. This work has the general objective to investigate how Sustainability is being inserted in the teaching-learning course of Architecture and Urbanism with the development of ephemeral furniture. To achieve this goal, a qualitative research will be developed, through a Case Study carried out in the Architecture and Urbanism with the development of ephemeral furniture. For its development, will also be conducted Documentary Research, Direct Observation and Participant, as well as semi-structured interviews in which information will be obtained from the coordinators, teachers and students of the University course. The research pointed out the importance of the students of the Architecture and Urbanism course in thinking about the elaboration, confection and donation of sustainable furniture, providing the social interaction within the mentioned institution. The last part was applied to the students directly responsible for the elaboration of the ephemeral furniture, and, through the results indicated, it is possible to verify that 80% agree with the insertion of Sustainability within the Object Design discipline, and 88% with the professional awareness. This identification points out that, of the 30 students interviewed, 24 of them emphasize the importance of these furniture for the social life in the institution. 60% of the six teachers involved and interviewed in the course partially agree on the students' awareness of Sustainability in being a factor of great importance to think about Sustainability within the profession and that 100% of those responsible for accompanying the students were receptive Urban furniture inside the institution. / O parklet, foco desta dissertação, é considerado um mobiliário urbano de médio porte composto por equipamentos urbanos de pequeno porte. Pode ser projetado e confeccionado, não somente com madeiras de reflorestamento ou recicladas; mas, também com ferros, aramados, plásticos resistentes e reciclados, sendo estes reutilizados após serem descartados. Esta dissertação tem por objetivo investigar como está sendo inserida a Sustentabilidade no ensino-aprendizagem do curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo com o desenvolvimento dos Mobiliários efêmeros. Para atingir a este objetivo, será desenvolvida pesquisa com qualitativa, por meio de um Estudo de Caso realizado no curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo de uma universidade privada paulista. Para seu desenvolvimento, foi realizada Pesquisa Documental, Observação Direta e Participante, bem como entrevistas semi-estruturadas, em que foram obtidas informações junto aos coordenadores, docentes e discentes da referida Universidade. A pesquisa apontou a importância dos alunos do curso de Arquitetura e Urbanismo em pensar na elaboração, confecção e doação dos mobiliários urbanos (parklets), proporcionando a interação social dentro da instituição citada. A última parte foi aplicada aos alunos diretamente responsáveis pela elaboração dos referidos mobiliários, e, por meio dos resultados apontados, é possível verificar que 80% concordam com a inserção da Sustentabilidade dentro da disciplina de Desenho do Objeto, e 88% na conscientização profissional. Esta identificação aponta que, dos 30 alunos entrevistados, 24 destes destacam a importância desses mobiliários para o convívio social na instituição. 60% dos seis professores envolvidos e entrevistados na disciplina concordam parcialmente quanto a conscientização da Sustentabilidade por parte dos alunos em ser um fator de grande importância o pensar na Sustentabilidade dentro da profissão e que 100% dos responsáveis pelo acompanhamento junto aos alunos, obtiveram receptividade destes no desenvolvimento dos mobiliários urbanos inseridos nos interiores da instituição.

An emphasis in political debates and much print media in the United Kingdom (UK) on perceived issues with ethnic, religious, and cultural diversity has contributed to a narrative of worry and fear. Despite such hostile discourse, people find ways of living together with diversity every day.  The encounters which I am concerned with in the following degree project are taking place through community theatre with Mafwa Theatre in Leeds where women from asylum seeker, refugee, and wider communities are socialising and cooperating over fun and simple drama activities. The purpose of this thesis is to better understand the different participants’ lived experiences of the theatre space, how they view their role in the group, and how they perceive diversity in the group. The research questions are explored with qualitative research methods of individual interviews with Mafwa members, the facilitators, and a volunteer, participant observation during the weekly drama sessions, and document analysis of printed, online, and audio materials. With this degree project, I aim to contribute to the discussion about everyday multiculturalism and living with diversity in the UK. The theoretical framework consists of the concept of hospitality which helps me explore how hospitable spaces are shaped and negotiated by different contributors, and conviviality which embraces the complexity of social relations without romanticising them and can help us reach a better understanding of how to live together without a fear for each other’s differences.  The findings show that the different participants view the drama group as a hospitable community of acceptance and respect within a hostile environment for asylum seekers and refugees at the national level. The space offers a well-needed opportunity for the women to have fun, develop their creative skills, and escape day-to-day concerns. Moreover, the study shows that besides being proud co-producers of artistic practice, all participants are also active co-creators of shaping the hospitable space and a ‘convivial culture’. Finally, despite misunderstandings and disagreements in the group, the participants express having bonded over similarities and learned from differences rather than describing diversity as something to fear.

In the modern consumer economy, experience is playing an increasingly important role. We are looking to buy a special but authentic experience, in particular when it comes to food consumption. These developments have led to a resurface and reinvention of the traditional covered market hall. New versions of the conventional concept have been created, and these covered food halls put emphasis on creating an attractive public realm for the visitor. However, the different versions of the covered food halls have different public realms with varied effects on the sense of place and conviviality for the visitor. The aim of this research is to find out what the drivers of the public realm of the modern covered food hall are, and to analyze how these influence, and can possibly improve the sense of place and conviviality. Three case studies of new covered food halls in Rotterdam provided valuable insights. From the theories it became apparent that there are four drivers of the public realm when it comes to the creation of a sense of place and conviviality: economical, social, cultural and political. The case studies showed the same result, however it has come to show that the tangible public realm is first and foremost the result of the intangible organization behind the covered food halls, relating to the political driver of the public realm. The structure and the aim of the organization determine the other 3 drivers, resulting in the physical structure of the public realm, and the activities that take place in the space. Within the physical realm, elements such as personalization, flexibility and transparency have shown to be crucial to create a sense of place and conviviality. The organization behind the hall also influences the activities that take place inside and around the hall. In order to possibly improve the public realm of the covered food hall, it is therefore important to start with finding a fitting organization for the aims and goals the covered food halls has as part of the public realm.

Diversity and Inclusion (D&I) is a topic of increasing importance in the private andpublic sectors. The reason behind growing investments in D&I can be found in thebeneficial effects of embracing and implementing D&I policies for public and privateorganisations. Indeed, D&I has multiple positive effects in terms of economic returns,productivity, creativity, attractiveness, reputation, employees’ wellness, and visibility.In May 2021, the Directorate General (DG) of the European Commission specialised injustice, consumer rights and gender equality (DG Justice) organised the EU DiversityMonth, aimed at raising awareness about the importance of D&I in the workplace. Theprogramme included many initiatives, and part of the campaign took place on socialmedia. #EUDiversityMonth and #UnionOfEquality were the two hashtags dedicated tothe campaign on social media by DG Justice. This research analyses the content sharedon Twitter using these two hashtags during the entire month of May 2021 by theofficial account of Helena Dalli, EU Commissioner for Equality, and the official accountof the European Commission's Justice and Consumers DG. This sample represents agood reference for the analysis of D&I representation and EU social mediacommunication, despite the fact that a low number of tweets were posted, showing anunderuse of social media as a strategic tool for communication for social change.

[pt] O presente trabalho, desdobramento da pesquisa desenvolvida entre 2007 e 2009, relatada na dissertação de mestrado intitulada Design de estruturas reticuladas de bambu geradas a partir de superfícies mínimas, tem como objetivo principal a aplicação de alguns dos modelos de estruturas de cobertura desenvolvidos pelo LILD (Laboratório de Investigação em Livre Desenho), em escala e contexto real para uso comunitário. Isso ocorre através do ensino de técnicas simples e de baixo impacto ambiental, em processos de construção coletiva utilizando materiais e mão de obra locais. Por meio da elaboração de desenhos, modelos físicos reduzidos e da prática construtiva coletiva em si, obtém-se uma dinâmica de troca de saberes entre mestres e aprendizes, onde o conhecimento flui de maneira multidirecional, se retroalimenta. O aprendizado obtido fica evidente em dois momentos: no desenvolvimento das estruturas em laboratório, pois ampliam o repertório de unidades estruturais do LILD, e na construção das mesmas fora dos muros da universidade, pois trazem resultados reais tanto sobre os saberes trocados entre os envolvidos quanto à ação do meio físico e social sobre o experimento. / [en] The present work, unfolding of the research developed between 2007 and 2009, reported in the master dissertation entitled Design of bamboo frame structures generated from minimal surfaces, has as main objective the implementation of models of roof structures developed by LILD (Laboratory Research in Free Design) on a scale and real context for community use. It happens by teaching simple and low environmental impact techniques in processes of collective construction using local materials and labor. Through the development of drawings, reduced physical models and collective constructive practice itself, we can get a dynamic exchange of knowledge between teachers and learners in which knowledge flows multidirectional way, feeds itself. The knowledge gained is evident in two phases: in the development of structures in the laboratory, it expands the repertoire of structural units of the LILD, and building them outside the walls of the university, because they bring real results both on the knowledge exchanged between those involved as the action of the physical and social environment on them.

Los escaparates virtuales, la venta online y la puesta en valor de los circuitos de producción cortos y agroecológicos a través de eficaces políticas de comunicación en las redes sociales son ejemplos de lo que hoy están usando muchos pequeños comerciantes para poner en valor su expertise tradicional, paradójicamente basada en la cercanía y el trato directo. en este artículo analizamos el papel de las tecnologías digitales en la re-significación y re-activación del pequeño comercio y de los mercados de abastos tradicionales. el uso de tecnologías digitales pone en entredicho la visión de Internet como agente de desterritorialización y de creación de una cultura global, ante la presencia de nuevas formas de localización basadas en la emergencia de nuevas formas de convivialidad, agroecología y alimentación saludable. / Virtual storefronts, online sales, the enhancement of short and agroecological circuits of production through effective communication policies in social networks, are strategies that many small businesses are now using to value their traditional expertise, paradoxically based on proximity and direct treatment. this article analyzes the role of digital technologies in the re-signification and re-activation of small businesses and traditional markets. the use of digital technologies challenges Internet as an agent of deterritorialization and creation of global culture, in front of the presence of new forms of localization based on the emergence of new forms of conviviality, agroecology and healthy eating.

Esta pesquisa visa trazer à tona uma inusitada reflexão sobre espiritualidade. O pano de fundo para esta reflexão dá-se diante do contexto urbano de qualidade cosmopolita, principalmente. O desejo central desta pesquisa é o de proporcionar um diálogo entre uma representação da realidade, a partir do contexto urbano, através da análise de uma espiritualidade manifesta na sitcom Friends e diante da ótica de Leonardo Boff no tocante a espiritualidade. Assim, se fosse possível esboçar uma visão disto, se propõe alguém diante da TV, assistindo episódios do seriado Friends e com os indicados textos de Boff, nas mãos. Melhor, ainda, alguém sentado junto de Boff, ambos assistindo ao famoso seriado e lançado suas percepções em um amistoso diálogo, cheio de interesse para reconhecer pontos de correlação entre o que pensa, diz e escreve o teólogo e o que descreve a série em áudio, imagem e movimento. Pela abordagem específica da obra de Boff, em Virtudes para um outro mundo possível, se procurará fazer esta inusitada dinâmica. Existe interlocução, entretanto, com diversos autores de tradições distintas, além de pesquisas sobre cultura midiática/televisiva e espiritualidade. A pesquisa lança mão, portanto, de uma suposição de que seja possível encontrar na representação televisiva do cotidiano, possibilidades de compreendê-lo. Aborda-se, de igual forma, alusão de que o pensamento teológico contemporâneo busca respostas sobre uma espiritualidade vivenciada neste ambiente, dito urbano e cosmopolita. Para representar este espaço cosmopolita, elegeu-se a sitcom Friends como manifestação e representação oportuna desta realidade que invade o modo de viver. De outra ponta e na expectativa de um encontro, se elenca perspectivas da obra e do pensamento de Leonardo sobre espiritualidade. Para tanto, inicia-se com definições gerais de espiritualidade e, após, uma definição pertinente para esta pesquisa. Segue-se com uma definição do que seja uma sitcom, além de uma apresentação do seriado Friends. A partir deste ponto, propostas sobre espiritualidade são convencionadas, a saber, espiritualidade implícita (rastros/resquícios da fé sobreviventes não atrelados ou comprometidos a uma tradição), espiritualidade explícita (formalidades e legado religiosos atrelados a uma ou outra tradição de fé), e a espiritualidade manifesta (amizade/comunhão em que elementos como hospitalidade, convivência e comensalidade se apresentam para início e manutenção destas). Diante desta última caracterização de espiritualidade (manifesta), se busca perceber e analisar na sitcom Friends questões como a hospitalidade, a convivência e a comensalidade; e, na sequência, um destaque para quando isto leva a outro nível de comunhão: o casamento. Por fim, uma reflexão e proposta de (re)leitura da conduta, do posicionamento e do relacionamento das nossas comunidades de fé em contextos urbanos, cosmopolitas. / This research seeks to discuss an uncommon reflection about spirituality. The background for this reflection mostly takes place within the cosmopolitan urban context. The main goal of this research is to provide a dialogue between a representation of reality, from the urban context, through the analysis of a spirituality manifested in the sitcom Friends, and through the eyes of Leonardo Boff and his perspective on spirituality. Thus, if it is possible to sketch a vision of this, imagine someone in front of the TV, watching episodes of Friends with the indicated texts Boff in his hands. Better yet, imagine someone sitting next to Boff, both watching the hit series and sharing their perceptions in a friendly dialogue, both devoted to recognizing points of correlation between what the theologian thinks, says, and writes, and what composes the series in audio, image, and movement. This specific approach to Boffs work, Virtues: For Another Possible World, aims to create these unusual dynamics. There is dialogue, however, with several authors from different traditions, in addition to research on media/television culture and spirituality. This research sheds the assumption that you can find possibilities to understand television in its everyday representation. Similarly, it approaches the allusion that contemporary theological thinking seeks answers over a spirituality experienced in an urban and cosmopolitan environment. To represent this cosmopolitan environment, the research elects the sitcom Friends as a timely manifestation and representation of this reality that is ever so relevant to our way of life. At the other end, but with the expectation of a point of correlation, the research lists perspectives of the work and the thoughts of Leonardo in regards to spirituality. To do so, the research starts with general definitions of spirituality, and then a definition relevant for this research. It continues by providing a definition of what a sitcom is beyond the sitcom Friends. From this point on, proposals about spirituality are agreed on, namely implicit spirituality (traces/remnants of faith that survives not dependent on or committed to a tradition), explicit spirituality (religious formalities and legacies tied to ambiguous traditions of faith), and spirituality manifested (friendship/fellowship in elements such as hospitality, conviviality, and commensality present themselves to start and maintain themselves). In this last characterization of spirituality (manifested), the research seeks to understand and analyze, in the sitcom Friends, issues such as hospitality, conviviality, and commensality; and, following, a highlight of when these issues lead to another level of communion: marriage. Finally, a the research engages in a discussion and proposed (re)reading of the conduit, positioning and relationship of our faith communities in urban and cosmopolitan contexts.

[pt] Nesta tese relato aplicações das estruturas leves de bambu. Na primeira parte do trabalho trato da história passada e da história contemporânea do emprego no mundo das estruturas estabilizadas pela união entre bambus e cabos. Os objetivos dessas estruturas, alguns dos seus precursores e suas experiências são citadas. O uso popular de estruturas feitas com esses materiais é tornado manifesto com imagens e textos referentes. A seguir tratamos dos modos artesanais de suas feituras e da passagem de sua técnica para espaços de convivência sendo enfatizado o efeito cultural do trabalho amoroso e detalhado de transmitir a maneira de fazer os objetos. Na segunda parte do trabalho apresento o estado da Arte no Laboratório de Investigação em Living Design (LILD), do Departamento de Artes e Design (DAD) da PUC-Rio, no campo destas estruturas. São narradas atividades de passagem das técnicas em 3 (três) comunidades situadas no estado do Rio de Janeiro: a) na aldeia dos professores indígenas KUAA MBO E Guarani em Parati, no LILD e no CENAM (Centro de Acolhida Missionária); b) no Parque Estadual da Ilha Grande (PEIG), na Escola Municipal Brigadeiro Nóbrega; c) na Escola de Circo no espaço Crescer e Viver com o grupo Nós nos Nós - tragédias e comédias aéreas. Relato também a metodologia utilizada em sua dinâmica as suas relações e vínculos, com a graduação e pós-graduação em Design e com outros setores da Universidade. São narradas a passagem das técnicas, a elaboração e uso dos protótipos. Distingo as conexões utilizadas nestas estruturas feitas com bambus e cabos, chamadas do tipo vigas recíprocas, popularmente chamadas de giro, que vem sendo utilizadas nacionalmente e internacionalmente. / [en] In this thesis report applications of lightweight structures with bamboo. In the first part of the tract of past history and contemporary history of employment in the world of structures stabilized by the union of bamboo and cables. The objectives of these structures, some of its precursors and their experiences are cited. The popular use of structures made with these materials is made manifest in images and texts related. Below we deal with the ways of their craft and making the passage of his technique for living space and emphasized the cultural effect of loving work and detailed way forward to make the objects. In the second part of the present state of the art in the Research Lab in Living Design (Lild), Department of Art and Design (DAD) of PUC-Rio, in the field of these structures. Activities are recounted in passing techniques in 3 (three) communities located in the state of Rio de Janeiro: a) teachers in the village of indigenous Guarani KUAA MBO E in Parati, and Lild CENAM (Center Welcoming Mission), b)State Park of Ilha Grande (Peig), the Municipal School Brigadier Nóbrega c) at Circus School Living and Growing in space with the group We We - air tragedies and comedies. Account also the methodology used in its dynamics and its relations ties with undergraduate and graduate design and other sectors of the University. Are told the passage of the techniques, the development and use of prototypes. Distinguish the connections used in these structures made of bamboo and wire, called the reciprocal type beams, popularly called spin, which is being used nationally and internationally.

The occupation of Western Sahara is a question of a forgotten colonization with a very limited framework of international recognition, media acknowledgment and talks. To break the remaining silence and invisibility, human rights activists have developed different initiatives, shedding light on the current situation of Western Sahara. This study investigates the Sahara Marathon campaign, an international sport event that has been developed in the Western Sahara refugee camps of Smara, El Aaiún and Auserd for twenty consecutive years.  Framing the Sahara Marathon as a case study, this degree project aims at inquiring into the potential impact and long-term implications of the international sport campaign, seeking “if” and “how” it contributes towards a social change and an end to the enforced invisibility of “Africa's last colony”, (Güell, 2015). In particular, this qualitative study examines the participatory approach and community engagement promoted through the campaign as well as the awareness-raising and dialogical processes triggered as a result of the Sahara Marathon sport event. The study is grounded on 23 in-depth interviews that have contributed to the external reliability of the research, underlining the reflections shared by organizers of the Sahara Marathon, drivers, freelancers, runners and most importantly human rights activists from Western Sahara. Findings reveal that the Sahara Marathon campaign raises awareness about the current situation in Western Sahara, contributing to a transnational acknowledgment of the conflict. The study also shows that active listening and convivial experiences are promoted throughout the campaign, dismantling stereotypes among communities coming from abroad and Saharawi people living in the refugee camps. In terms of participation, it has been concluded that the campaign uses a participation by consultation approach, needing a new model to showcase the utility and effectiveness of the event as well as to ensure its sustainability in the future.
