A three-year transnational project examines how nature-based infrastructure performs in post-disaster cities across Japan, Sweden, and Poland — treating urban recovery as a testing ground for ecological governance under stress.
The research collective has released a working paper proposing standards for governance tool interoperability — enabling rules and processes to flow between online communities, DAOs, and physical assemblies.
Learning Planet Institute's Graduate School in Paris seeks students willing to cross disciplinary boundaries to address systemic challenges — a model that tests whether academic structures can adapt to planetary-scale problems.
New satellite research reveals that 40% of corn and 60% of wheat depend on land-based rainfall — unstable moisture from forests, wetlands, and soil that agricultural expansion is actively destroying.
Researchers at Bonn University developed a self-cleaning filter modeled on fish gills that captures microplastics from washing machines — addressing a governance gap where household infrastructure meets ocean pollution.
