Marzia Fiume, a doctoral candidate at the Universita’ di Roma La Sapienza, spent a semester at the University of Florida working on her dissertation with Professor Martha Kohen as her external tutor. Upon reviewing Fiume's dissertation, Kohen notes that it documents, analyzes, and classifies an extraordinary collection of world cities located on water. Fiume demonstrated a profound knowledge of Venice that provided the theoretical framework for her analysis. She also experienced the urban conditions of Florida cities firsthand and was able to compare locations endangered by sea level rise across different geographies. In an advanced graduate design course, Fiume synthesized cultural, climatic, environmental, economic, and real estate components to generate an extraordinary

Water Works: capacity and communication for social change in peruvian municip...April Pojman
This thesis is an exploratory study of the role that Communication for Social Change principles play in World University Service of Canada's (WUSC) project to strengthen the capacity of Peruvian municipalities in the area of water and sanitation. The research took place in two case study locations, one urban and one rural, and was conducted through stakeholder workshops, semi-structured interviews, participant observation and a review of project documents. The findings describe the communication, collaboration and perceived changes in individual and organizational capacity that have taken place based on WUSC's work with municipal governments, water companies, water user groups, and end users. In doing so, the research reveals that WUSC carries out many effective communication and capacity development activities based on their long-term engagement with their counterparts and their "learning by doing" approach. However, they do not have overall strategies in either of these areas, which has resulted in the exclusion of some stakeholders and difficulty in monitoring and evaluating these areas which may hamper the overall long-term impact of the project. Based on these findings, the paper suggests how Communication for Social Change principles could be applied to help improve other capacity development projects of this type. While this study does not directly address debates about water privatization, it does offer reflections for improving the effectiveness of local level water management.

Final Comments to the Thesis presented by doctoral candidate Marzia Fiume
Garelli to the Universita’ di Roma La Sapienza.
The student was present at the University of Florida for an entire Fall Semester where I interacted actively
with her as her external tutor as she was working on her dissertation. She brought with her a deep
knowledge of the European cases of Fluvial or Aquatic Cities that was of extreme interest in the ideas on
Hydro-generated urban environments that were being developed at research and design at the School of
Architecture.
Upon reviewing now her dissertation, I can appreciate she has been able to document, analyze and
classify an extraordinary collection regarding world cities on water, identified through their cultural,
geographical and economic realms. This initial analysis is not only a great source for her research, but
constitutes in itself a data bank from where research can continue.
Her demonstrated profound knowledge regarding the formative and per formative conditions of the
city of Venice, a valued paradigmatic example, not only gave her the theoretical framework for
analysis but is a didactic demonstration of her capabilities for the academic environment.
She experienced personally the urban conditions of the Florida cities, studied the local history and
planning conditions, and though enriched her data base and her knowledge of a new geographical
location, endangered by sea level rise, enabling her to compare across the planetary realm with similar
conditions.
Finally, in the course of Advanced Graduate Design II course, she was able to individually synthesize
the cultural, climatic, environmental, economic and real estate components in the generation of an
extraordinary project.
This project is able to integrate the amphibian condition, and the character of the future Florida urban
settlement. It has brilliantly synthesized the challenges that our local Floridian scholars have not been able
to foresee and has done so at the scale of the problem: a response at territorial scale. Her project
integrates conceptually all the levels of the urban experience in an American dimension. She has proved
that she can work in an innovative manner under new conditions and that she has the capability of
generating extraordinary associations, deeply based in extensive research and personal immersion and
intuition, that guide her securely towards a brilliant outcome.
Sincerely
Martha Kohen
Professor of Architecture
