ABSTRACT:
During recent years, the fast development of Information Technologies (IT) and digital media has introduced new opportunities for a sustainable and inclusive growth of cities, by produc-ing on the one hand lots of data about urban life, and on the other hand, digital media plat-forms.
The concept of planning itself is undergoing a cultural transformation, from designing the physical urban environment as an efficient, static backdrop for inhabitation, towards the con-cept of “citymaking”, where the spatial decision making process is dealing with cultural as-pects, liveability, community building, social cohesion and design.
Over the last few years a new methodology called ‘Living Lab’ has emerged to involve citizens in the design process. Initially is has mainly been used in the business sector to test commer-cial products, or to involve consumers as co-creators. Recently it has also progressively gained credibility in urban processes, as it facilitates the engagement of stakeholders and their under-standing of the planning problem, as well as the sharing of criteria for vision setting, thus ena-bling a transparent urban planning decision process.
During the STSM, which took place in April 2014, the authors have tried to outline how living labs are used in real cases of collaborative planning in the City of Amsterdam, and what is the role of new technologies in these living labs.
Nine experiments of Living labs -with or without such a label- on urban processes of planning and requalification were explored, with the aim of tracing out the achievements and weak-nesses of the practices undertaken so far. Through data collection, field surveys and inter-views, the authors asked whether technology is really helping non-expert citizens in being part of complex urban process, allowing real co-creation to happen; and, more generally, analyzed how the role of institutions, designers and citizens is changing in this dynamic scenario.
Amsterdam can be recognized as one of the most active cities in the European scenario in promoting innovative initiatives, by the use of open data and the development of smart pro-jects emerging from groups of citizen led proposals; participatory planning experiences are grounded on a solid tradition, and experimentation with numerous opportunities offered by new technologies. The city has recognized this potential and is investing on such projects, mainly by providing the conditions for a smart environment where open applications and initi-atives can be developed. There are several platforms that are already in place: these exhibit not only a high stage of development within the city itself, but also the role of cata

1. Preface
It is dawning on many of us that the current pace and direction of society is difficult to keep up for very long. When in the post-world-war period the pursuit of (individual) achievement seemed the key force of collective development, now the nature of the achievement is very much at the heart of our concerns. Sharing and respecting the environment, be it social, capital or natural, must now regain a central position in community management. Simultaneously the means available for this common task are more and more distributed. More than ever must one ask what one can do for the community, rather than what the community can do for us.
If this project can establish the relevance of the multidisciplinary approach to global sustainability, it will be succesful. All participants, and all of their partners, will be dealing with our subject hands on. This means, once again, to break out of conventional silos so that professionals with different expertise can share insights and work side by side for the common goal.
Once the individual participants of the project recognise the shared motivation, the matter can be improved, embodied and disseminated - through the work in progress and the distribution of the results. Everyone will have the occasion to relay the subject in new links with organisations and city councils on local level, bringing together the actors within a common framework. The nature of 'change management' will need the implication of key-stake-holders on a regional level. Developping and distributing tested contents will convince captains of governance and industry to support the agents of the new models. The rich and diverse context of european culture will be a favourable background for innovating community-management with the resilience of a hybrid multi-faceted approach. When we come out with a 'best-practice'-based toolbox, developed on field work, we will be ready to share the expertise, and promote this complementary and crucial frame of innovation.

This research report is part of the Erasmus + project. It is the result of the initial phase, and concentrates on the task of assessing the existing practices of the five partners. The results of the research is be the basis of the second and final phase - the Toolbox development.

Organisations from five European countries have joined forces on a three year journey to share existing know-how and explore new practices related to coworking ecosystems. However, as with every journey, the project began with a period of reflection and preparation, an opportunity to learn new work languages, structures and methods: “Where have we come from?”, “Where are we going?”, “What should be taken forward?”. In addition there were specific questions and discussions on the meanings behind our coworking ecosystems themes, namely multidisciplinary coworking, local partnerships, ecological transition, participatory governance and social entrepreneurship. This report provides the history of our preparation for constructing a coworking toolbox. It focuses on the wealth of local background material unearthed by the partners and, by identifying the most relevant points, helps explain how the map to guide our journey began to take shape.
The information you are about to discover will help explain why we believe that coworking and the creation of multidisciplinary creative clusters (also known as ecosystems or the Third Place) provide an innovative approach for European entrepreneurs and professionals to work collaboratively through improved communication and networking, in order to create new economic opportunities and benefit society.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A social innovation laboratory is an instrument to think together with an
experimentation and prototyping approach, combining reflection and orientation to
action, thinking openly about our communities with awareness of the global, with the
aim of generating responses to the complex challenges of our time, whether in
neighborhoods, in public institutions, in companies, in organizations in general, in
society as a whole.

It is a think-tank devoted to the future of higher
education. It is an open forum for the meeting of
different stakeholders who wish to contribute to
what the university institution could look like.
It played a relevant role during COVID 19 by
coordinating actions of more than 20 universities,
sharing resources and training.
28.
29. The Facultad Cero Process invites us to rethink and redesign the University through two ways:
● the detection of areas for improvement and their debate; and
● the generation of concrete proposals for our university and its environment.
The process consists of a series of meetings and living labs that aim at the co-creation of prototypes
by the university community as a whole (students, PAS, PDI) and the general public that contribute
to improving the University of Granada and the way it relates to its environment based on an open
and critical discussion.
30. Raise a debate on the challenges and problems and the
opportunities facing the university, and on the other hand, on the
basis of co-creation, generate proposals that provide a solution, in
whole or in part, to these challenges.
