En este trabajo, se intenta dar cuenta de la frondosa metafórica cultivada por la Ecología Política en torno a la crisis global que atraviesa a todas las dimensiones de la trama de la vida. Los ...conceptos de vida y medio ambiente, al ser historizados, revelan las estructuras por las cuales el ser humano se ha vinculado con el mundo. A partir de una historia intelectual, específicamente vinculada a la metaforología del filósofo alemán Hans Blumenberg, se examinará pues el trasfondo alegórico que subyace detrás de las ontologías ecologistas más radicales. En efecto, estas coinciden con un intento de metarrelato o Biodicea basado en la escenificación de un despliegue temporal escatológico signado por la catástrofe ambiental como destino irremediable y, al mismo tiempo, una “ecoutopía” en caso de reconfigurarse el ser-en-el-mundo. La Salvación se deposita, entonces, en la comunidad redimida del phatos capitalista funcionando retóricamente tanto como advertencia y esperanza respecto del porvenir.
The purpose of this Consensus Statement is to provide a global, collaborative, representative and inclusive vision for educating an interprofessional healthcare workforce that can deliver sustainable ...healthcare and promote planetary health. It is intended to inform national and global accreditation standards, planning and action at the institutional level as well as highlight the role of individuals in transforming health professions education. Many countries have agreed to 'rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes' to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 45% within 10 years and achieve carbon neutrality by 2050, including in healthcare. Currently, however, health professions graduates are not prepared for their roles in achieving these changes. Thus, to reduce emissions and meet the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), health professions education must equip undergraduates, and those already qualified, with the knowledge, skills, values, competence and confidence they need to sustainably promote the health, human rights and well-being of current and future generations, while protecting the health of the planet.
The current imperative for action on environmental issues such as climate change requires health professionals to mobilize politically as they have before, becoming strong advocates for major environmental, social and economic change. A truly ethical relationship with people and the planet that we inhabit so precariously, and to guarantee a future for the generations which follow, demands nothing less of all health professionals.
This Consensus Statement outlines the changes required in health professions education, approaches to achieve these changes and a timeline for action linked to the internationally agreed SDGs. It represents the collective vision of health professionals, educators and students from various health professions, geographic locations and cultures. 'Consensus' implies broad agreement amongst all individuals engaged in discussion on a specific issue, which in this instance, is agreement by all signatories of this Statement developed under the auspices of the Association for Medical Education in Europe (AMEE).
To ensure a shared understanding and to accurately convey information, we outline key terms in a glossary which accompanies this Consensus Statement (
Supplementary Appendix
1). We acknowledge, however, that terms evolve and that different terms resonate variably depending on factors such as setting and audience. We define education for sustainable healthcare as the process of equipping current and future health professionals with the knowledge, values, confidence and capacity to provide environmentally sustainable services through health professions education. We define a health professional as a person who has gained a professional qualification for work in the health system, whether in healthcare delivery, public health or a management or supporting role and education as 'the system comprising structures, curricula, faculty and activities contributing to a learning process'. This Statement is relevant to the full continuum of training - from undergraduate to postgraduate and continuing professional development.
Eastern Europe shows the most complete in the world continuous sequence of continental Permian and Triassic deposits, which allows the development of tetrapod faunas over more than 17 successive ...stages to be traced. The newly obtained data on transitional Vyazniki and Sundyr tetrapod faunas provide more complete characteristics of the Severodvinian (Late Guadalupian, pre-Lopingian) and Permian-Triassic ecological crises and the ways of replacement of the dominant vertebrate groups of Eastern Europe.

Las tradiciones religiosas son relevantes para hacer frente a la crisis ecológica actual. Junto con la vida concreta de sus comunidades y de su incidencia institucional, el cristianismo ha visto la ...constitución progresiva de una nueva área disciplinar teológica. Además de presentar el debate actual sobre el alcance de las transformaciones que los desafíos ecológicos requieren de los contenidos teológicos clásicos, se ofrecen algunas perspectivas de futuro de la ecoteología. Por otra parte, se identifican tres nudos problemáticos que requieren un mayor desarrollo en relación con la naturaleza, la humanidad y la acción divina. Y que apuntan, en términos generales, a pensar teológicamente la singularidad y la capacidad de actuar (agencia) —y sus consecuencias— más allá de la especie humana, a profundizar teológicamente las categorías de límite y poder, y a generar narrativas teológicas que permitan ver la realidad y sostener una acción comunitaria lúcidamente esperanzada que colabore con la consumación de todo lo creado.
Against the background of current multiple crises, above all the social-ecological crisis, the question arises how the phase of adolescence and its arrangement in fields of social pedagogy/social ...work are affected by this. Quantitative research shows that many young people are worried about the future because of the climate crisis. These surveys also show that the experience of the crisis is embedded in class and gender relations. However, there is a lack of qualitative research on this issue in general and on social pedagogical responses in particular. This article develops a perspective for social pedagogical research that focuses on both the affective and the social dimensions of adolescence. On this basis, initial reflections are made on the significance of the social-ecological crisis for negotiating adolescence between professionals and adolescents in the field of Open Child and Youth Work.
We are facing socio-ecological crises and failing to meet the basic needs of everyone in society whilst living within planetary boundaries. These interconnected problems are complex, which require ...urgent transdisciplinary efforts informed by theories of change. How can we address this in cities in a way that is equitable and sustainable, since cities are complex, dynamic ecosystems with interdependent relationships? What processes, dynamics and determinants are involved? What and how are local policies designed and implemented with the intention of achieving sustainable wellbeing for all? How do normative competences shape cities' capacities to directly respond to social and ecological needs? How can we effectively assess and compare advancements being made in different cities? Given this complexity, more systemic, integrated, and theoretical understanding is needed. We present a new conceptual framework which aims to strengthen understanding of the processes, dimensions, determinants, bi-directional relations and dynamics that influence the opportunities for cities to become more equitable and sustainable. The framework places a specific emphasis on political determinants, and can serve as a tool to guide public policy design and evaluation, and monitoring of the progress made across the various dimensions of sustainability wellbeing for all in different urban contexts.

This review article analyses the topic of phenomenological Marxism, examining its historical formulations, critical contributions, and contemporary re-enactments. It begins with an overview of the ...works of Enzo Paci and the Milan school of phenomenology, as well as Jan Patočka and Karel Kosík. In addition, it explores the recent work by Ian H. Angus, whose book, Groundwork of Phenomenological Marxism (2021), presents an innovative perspective on the relationship between phenomenology and Marxism. Angus's work emphasizes the intersection of Husserl and Marx's ontologies of the lifeworld and labour, offering a fresh perspective on the discourse surrounding the relationship between nature, labour, and culture. Drawing on both phenomenological and Marxist categories, Angus argues for the need for an ethics of responsibility in response to the ecological crisis currently facing humanity. Angus posits that an ethics of responsibility grounded in phenomenological Marxism offers a promising avenue for addressing this pressing global issue.
Conversion is a transformation altering worldviews and identities through changed awareness of self, community (including religion, society, politics, economics and industry) and global ecology. The ...guiding principle of
by Pope Francis is contained in several points, “Everything is related”, relies on scientifical findings: life on Earth’s current forms depend on natural equilibriums. Biodiversity collapse and global warming are two deteriorations which deeply threaten the humanity survival. Christian tradition offers some precious assets to face this emergency, and become committed, as a Christian, in ecological causes: Ecological conversion is essentially a return to the realization of God’s will in the matter of caring for one’s home.
