Full textAbstract:
The global auto industry is responsible for 15.9% of carbon emission (OICA) and among that, vehicle users are responsible for around 80% of carbon emission (JAMA). Awareness about environmental problems caused by this emission is rapidly increasing among people and governments are organizing various campaigns to make people familiar with the eco-driving concept. Vehicle users do not realize that their driving style has a direct influence on fuel consumption and this, in turn, leads to unwanted carbon emission. Therefore, there is a need to understand the car users' eco-driving behavior and explores the awareness level of passenger car users. Data has been collected from 400 respondents through the help of a structured questionnaire with a focus on eco-driving behavior practices. Analysis of this data showed that the pressure given to accelerate the engine is transformed into tailpipe emission. Therefore, this study highlights the importance of inculcating eco-driving behavior among car users in particular and vehicle users in general.

Full textAbstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of social capital within a community on the adoption of consumer eco-behaviour or environmentally sustainable behaviour of consumers. The authors draw on the behavioural perspective model (BPM) of consumer behaviour and social capital theory in arguing that social capital shapes a consumer’s knowledge of environmental issues and pro-environmental attitudes, which in turn influence a consumer’s perceived capability to engage in eco-behaviour. Design/methodology/approach – This study uses partial least squares approach to structural equation modelling of survey data involving 1,044 consumers in the Philippines. It involves testing of a measurement model to examine the validity and reliability of the constructs used in the study. This is followed by testing of the structural models to test the hypothesised relationships of the constructs. Findings – The results suggest the substantive influence of social capital on environmental knowledge, pro-environmental attitudes and eco-capability. Both knowledge and attitudes have positive effects on eco-capability, which in turn positively shapes eco-behaviour. Research limitations/implications – Future studies can examine how social capital as a multi-dimensional construct impacts context-specific consumer behaviour. Practical implications – Social and environmental marketing may focus on social network activation to encourage eco-behaviours of consumers. Social implications – Findings highlight the role of social capital within one’s community as a resource channel to encourage environmentally responsible consumer behaviour. Originality/value – The study extends the BPM by offering a social capital view as a more nuanced explanation of consumer eco-behaviour.

Abstract This research aims to identify effective strategies for reducing carbon emissions in online shopping by examining the perspectives of Thai consumers and utilizing sociodemographic data to anticipate their choices for carbon mitigation. The study encompasses eco-logistics, last-mile innovations, and responsible consumer behavior. Data collected from a questionnaire gathered responses from 800 participants across diverse regions, resulting in a 96.50% response rate. Using a multinomial logit model in Stata 15, the analysis reveals factors influencing consumer decisions. Eco-logistics is the preferred choice for 35.74% of individuals aiming to reduce carbon emissions from online shopping. Regular purchases of clothing and shoes correlate with a 46% higher likelihood of selecting eco-logistics, while responsible purchasing shows a 33.03% adoption rate. Last-mile innovations, chosen by 31.23%, appeal to higher-income individuals, while women, older age groups (46+), and those with higher education lean toward eco-logistics. Higher education enhances responsible purchasing, influenced by critical thinking, income, and professional networks. Additionally, suburban consumers prefer eco-logistics due to longer distances, while urban residents opt for last-mile innovations. Addressing these challenges facilitates environmentally conscious practices in the e-commerce supply chain, providing insights for policymakers and businesses to formulate sustainable and equitable strategies.

In December 2018, Kuningan University launched the Green Campus. The eco - campus program is motivated by, among others, that the campus environment is expecting to be a comfortable, clean, shady (green), beautiful, and healthy place to gain knowledge. The campus environment as an inseparable part of the urban ecosystem is not insignificant in its role and contribution to increasing or reducing global warming. Besides that, what is also important is how the campus community can implement Environmental Science and Technology in a Real Field. Therefore the Eco-Campus program is aimed at increasing the awareness and concern of the campus community as a collection of scientific societies to participate and be responsible for reducing Global Warming. However, er, of all these issues, the most important thing is how we can apply the concept in our daily behavior better known as green behavior, then how this behavior can be transmitted and taught in the context of education. Sometimes we think too hard about behaviors like what can say green behavior

This study conducted a literature review of existing research in Indonesia on tourist visits to mangrove forests as eco-tourism. Based on the 20 (twenty) studies that the author has reviewed, there are 19 (nineteen) previous studies that have studied the supply side far more. The feasibility of developing mangrove eco-tourism based on the supply side, namely; tourist attraction objects, accessibility to objects, socio-economic conditions of the community, modes of transportation and accommodation, supervision management, supporting facilities and infrastructure, availability of clean water within the object area, relations between tourists and people around the area, value of carrying capacity, and security of the area . There is still a little research from the demand side that researchers do through the google scholar search system and sort from the top to the bottom of the 20 selected journals. Only one study uses the theoretical basis of Ajzen and Fishbein (1980) as a theoretical model of responsible environmental behavior or a model of their responsible environmental behavior based on the theory of planned behavior (TPB) (Ajzen, 2020). Researchers on the demand side or requests from visitors' desires are still lacking in research that should be encouraged to be able to increase self identity or social influence making environmental consciousness, pro-environmental behavior, and environmental belief a mediating or moderating variable so as to produce a significant or positive analysis on behavior for the decision to visit the mangrove forest eco-tourism is more sustainable.

Full textAbstract:
The global issue of widespread and unsustainable consumption has resulted in significant problems such as pollution and global warming. As a result, there is an increasing demand for greater understanding and use of Eco friendly products. This study's main goal was to investigate how university student's knowledge of Eco friendly products affected their purchasing decisions. The precise goals were to ascertain whether awareness, price, availability, value, and quality had an effect on university student's decisions to buy environmentally friendly products and to investigate how awareness, price, availability, value, and quality predict their intention to buy such products. Data from 120-student online survey was analyzed using a structural equation modeling approach. The results show that university student's purchase decisions are most significantly positively impacted by the quality of Eco friendly products. However, it was discovered that the influence of Eco friendly product awareness on their decision to buy green products was comparatively small. The study also demonstrates that elements like price, awareness, and exceptional quality are mostly responsible for the influence of green product awareness on university students buying behavior. In contrast, the perceived value of the products does not appear to be a critical factor influencing the green purchase intentions of university students. The implications of the study, along with its limitations for future research, are discussed. Keywords: Eco-friendly Products, Consumer purchasing behavior, Youth, University Students, Pakistan.

Full textAbstract:
Sustainable development stands as a global imperative, addressing the multifaceted challenges encompassing climate action, environmental preservation, resource efficiency, and the responsible use of raw materials. As global consciousness shifts toward environmental protection and the principles of sustainability, eco- friendliness has emerged as the prevailing zeitgeist. Within the manufacturing sector, particular attention has been directed towards green packaging. This study draws upon meticulously gathered data from 200 respondents through a thoughtfully designed survey to dissect the influential factors shaping consumer buying behavior. Employing the principal factor analysis technique, we unveil four primary factors underpinning consumers' buying behavior: eco-labeling, willingness to pay, environmental concern, and attitude. These findings underscore a growing scholarly and research interest in these dimensions, evident in the increasing volume of academic publications in recent years. Moreover, the insights derived from this research will empower manufacturers and businesses to formulate strategies aimed at securing competitive advantages, bolstering sales, and enhancing brand image. Key Words: Sustainability, Green Packaging, Eco-Labelling, Willingness to Pay, Environmental Concern, Attitude.

Environmental issues are a priority, since global environmental problem has become perceived as a threat to humanity’s existence. The necessity and timeliness of conceptual marketing approaches revision are dictated by the formation of new economy sector of ecological goods and services, and the environmentally responsible marketing concept is being formed. The purpose of the work is to substantiate the environmental factor influence on consumer behavior motives and formation of consumer demand for environmental products within the frame of environmentally responsible marketing. Changes in the external marketing environmentlead to changes in the internal environment of the market entity, causing its environmental development. The recorded tendencies and changes in the marketing environment form the marketing ecological imperative, which takes into account the environmental factor in marketing activity of the market player. The research allows to determine the position of ecologically responsible marketing as a basic marketing concept that defines the philosophy and technology of marketing management by socio-economic systems regardless the sphere of the market entity activity in conditions of ecological imperative. The analysis shows that the modern Ukrainian society began to strive not only to purchase and consume desired products, but also to improve and to preserve the ecological situation. In a market environment, the specific marketing activity feature, which changes under the influence of the factor of ecological situation quality deterioration, adds new tasks, concomitant to main classical. The development of the enterprise environmental management system will promote the implementation of environment-oriented goals: formalization of the environmental products concept, environmental products market development, certification programs development, preservation of the environment quality, formation of ecologically oriented consciousness of the society. Considering the understanding of the needs, the motivational aspects of ecologically oriented consumer behavior in the market are stated in the form of the system based on the need for the security. Through the development of eco-responsible marketing tools and their step-by-step introduction into enterprise activity, it becomes possible to develop the ecological products market through the implementation of proactive environmental activity and satisfaction of individual consumer demand.

Environmental problems must be solved urgently, and sustainable production activities are desired. This study focuses on environmental finance, which is a method of promoting sustainable corporation activities. Environmental finance allows socially responsible investment to directly contribute to corporate activities and sustainable production activities. To clarify the mechanism of eco-friendly investment decision making, 4,843 respondents took a questionnaire survey on investment decision making, based on the framework of prospect theory. The results showed that prospect theory did not always work for environment issues and that people’s attitudes when they decide on eco-friendly investments could be classified to four clusters.

Les travaux de recherche menés dans le cadre de cette thèse ont pour objectif de contribuer à trois problématiques liées à la nature de l’information, à sa perception et à sa transmission à l’aide d’une application mobile comme outil d’aide au changement. Nos contributions sur la nature de l’information et plus particulièrement sa complexité sont destinées à faciliter la compréhension de l’information. Nous avons proposé une nouvelle méthode de classement basée sur la théorie algorithmique de l’information (complexité de Kolmogorov). Ces travaux nous ont permis de mieux comprendre l’impact de la complexité de l’information chez les individus. Nous avons également porté une attention particulière à la perception de l’information en analysant les caractéristiques exerçant une influence sur le processus de décision chez l’humain. À partir de cette analyse, nous avons proposé une étude exploratoire d’oculométrie permettant de mettre en lumière les effets de la complexité et de la position de l’information sur le choix d’un individu dans une tâche de mobilité urbaine. Notre recherche sur la création d’un outil d’aide au changement de comportement nous a mené à la conception et au développement d’une application mobile de suivi de sa propre consommation de CO2. L’objectif de cette application est de comprendre les facteurs d’acceptation de ces outils et l’influence de la complexité de l’information sur ces facteurs. Cette contribution constitue également une expérimentation en conditions réelles de l’ensemble de nos travaux dans un contexte de recherche encore peu exploité, la mobilité urbaineThe research work conducted in the framework of this thesis aims to contribute to three issues related to the nature of information, its perception and its transmission using a mobile application (tool for change). Our contributions on the nature of information and more particularly its complexity are intended to facilitate the understanding of information. Based on the algorithmic theory of information and more particularly the complexity of information (Kolmogorov complexity), a new classification method has been proposed. This work has allowed us to better understand the impact of information complexity on individuals. We also paid particular attention to the perception of information by analyzing the characteristics that influence the decision process in humans. From this analysis, an exploratory eye-tracking study was carried out to highlight the effects of information complexity and position on an individual’s choice in an urban mobility task. Our research on the creation of a behavior change tool led us to the design and development of a mobile application to monitor one’s own CO2 consumption. The objective of this application is to understand the factors of acceptance of these tools and the influence of the complexity of the information on these factors. This contribution is also an experimentation in real conditions of all our work, in a research context still little exploited, the urban mobility

With the growing tourism industry brings more economic benefits for local area. The economic benefits brought by the tourism industry are gradually valued in the world. Countries constantly invest resources to strengthen the construction of software and hardware; however, it is easy to neglect the environmental impacts of tourism. In order to balance the sustainability of the tourism environment, we began to think about how to develop sustainable tourism through eco-tourism. Therefore, this study attempts to adopt environmentally responsible behavior (ERB) and to develop a research model of its antecedents and consequences. The potential predictors of ERB are used to find out the influence on environmentally responsible behavior (general ERB and site-specific ERB) through attitude characteristics (environmental belief and environmental attitude), social & emotional characteristics (place identity and place attachment) and personal characteristics (local environmental awareness and local environmental sensitivity), and that ERB as a mediator to confirm the influence effect on eco-friendly purchase behavior. By eco-tourism sites being used as a sample sites for this study, and how to combine the more natural protected sites with environmental education guide to lead visitors further exploring the attractions. Participants of this study comprised members who had attended the eco-tour of visiting Xiaoyeliu at night in East Coast National Scenic Area in 2017. Data was collected via paper questionnaires in two stages after tourists finished their touring at Xioyeliu. For the pretest, 250 responses were completed and 207 were valid, the effective recovery ratio is 77.7%; and as to the formal questionnaire, 522 responses were completed with excluding 126 invalid questionnaires and 396 were valid, the effective recovery ratio is 75.86%. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is used to test the proposed model and the structural model has shown a good fit. (1) From the results within the hypothesis model, environmental belief, place identity, place attachment and local environmental awareness does not have significant effect on site-specific environmentally responsible behavior, the remaining 10 hypothesis are supported. (2) It is found that general environmentally responsible behavior has significant and positive influence of site-specific environmentally responsible behavior as an additional hypothesis path in the rival model. However, the rival model does not significantly improve the model fit. (3) In the multi-group analysis, “monthly income” and “travelling in holidays or not” as a variable is used to divide the tourists into different group. The results show that different group has different paths in the structural model. The general environmentally responsible behavior has significant and positive influence of eco-friendly purchase behavior in “lower monthly income” group and “travelling in holidays” group, but site-specific environmentally responsible behavior has significant and positive influence of eco-friendly purchase behavior in “higher monthly income” group and “without travelling in holidays” group. For different groups of tourists, the basic attributes are different. The potential predictors of ERB which include: attitude characteristics (environmental belief and environmental attitude), social & emotional characteristics (place identity and place attachment), personal characteristics (local environmental sensitivity and local environmental awareness) have different level on significant and positive influence effect. General ERB partially mediates the relationship between the attitude perspectives (environmental belief and environmental attitude), social & emotional perspectives (place identity and place attachment) and the eco-friendly purchase behavior of tourists. Site-specific ERB not only partially mediates the relationship between environmental attitude and eco-friendly purchase behavior, but also partially mediates the relationship between local environmental sensitivity and eco-friendly purchase behavior. Therefore, environmentally responsible behavior can as an important mediator between different perspectives and eco-friendly purchase behavior. In conclusion, practical implications and suggestions were provided after discussing the finding of this study and predominating tourist’s environmentally responsible behaviors in travel. This study provides the best perspectives and important suggestion of developing responsible tourism according to local culture and environmental feature for travel related management unit.

This paper explores the relationship among residents’ sustainable tourism development attitude, community attachment and environmental responsible behavior in the five Taiwanese eco-communities. The time of questionnaire distributed was from Jan 15th to Feb 30th, 2013. The research population included Gambian community, Dasyueshan community, Taomi village, Saviki community, Ghi-Gu community, A total of 360 surveys were distributed, and 354 of them were returned. The collected data used SPSS 19.0 for descriptive statistics, reliability analysis, t-test, one-way ANOVA, and AMOS 21.0 to conduct confirmatory factor analysis(CFA), and research testing the relationship between constructs(SEM). The results indicate that (1) sustainable tourism development attitude has a positive and significant effect on the environmental responsible behavior; (2) community attachment has a positive and significant effect on the environmental responsible behavior; (3) sustainable tourism development attitude has a positive and significant effect on the community attachment; (4) community attachment exerts a full mediator effect on the relationship between sustainable tourism development attitude and environmental responsible behavior. Some managerial implications for the administrative authority and suggestions for further research are also proposed according to results of this study.

In response to increasing importance of the sustainable management of natural resources and the cultivation of environmental behaviors, the purpose of this study was to research the relationships among activity involvement, place attachment, and environmentally responsible behavior. The subjects of this study were middle-aged and older people who served as eco-volunteer interpreters. We could construct the effective way to promote eco-volunteer interpreters’ environmental sustainability and protection of biodiversity by exploring the causation among above-mentioned researched variables, further to cultivate environmentally responsible behaviors of citizens. In this study, 500 questionnaires were handed out, and 432 valid questionnaires were collected among the middle-aged and old eco-volunteer interpreters on 23 academic institutes of nature conservation. The empirical results showed as follows: （1）There were significant differences in activity involvement of middle-aged and old eco-volunteer interpreters in different "gender", "age", "occupation condition", "education level", "residence location", "personal average monthly income", "monthly total duty service days", "volunteers’ total service years” . （2）There were significant differences in place attachment of middle-aged and old eco-volunteer interpreters in different "gender", "age", "occupation condition", "volunteers’ total service years". （3）There was a significant difference in environmentally responsible behaviors of middle-aged and old eco-volunteer interpreters in different "volunteers’ total service years ". （4）There were significant correlations between the activity involvement, place attachment, and environmentally responsible behavior. （5）There were significant impacts among the activity involvement, place attachment, and environmentally responsible behavior on each other.

AbstractUnder the inspiring and aspiring title: Paving the way for pushing and pursuing a “one for all, all for one” triple transition: social, green, and digital: The Three MuskEUteers, a group of remarkable co-authors and contributors have developed radically new forward-looking visions, principles, approaches, and action recommendations for an attuned indivisible social, green, and digital transition.The triple transition is aimed at helping humanity gather around a life-sustaining purpose, as opposed to life-destroying one in terms of wars of all kinds (military, economic, political, etc.); nature decay and wreckage (carbon footprint, plastic pollution, soil poisoning, etc.); human alienation (favelas, homeless persons, refugee camps, child malnutrition, poverty, exclusion of any kind); and geographic imbalances with empty rural spaces and overcrowded megacities (creating difficult access of rural and/or remote population to care, health, and other essential services; difficulty of urban population to contact with natural environments).The work highlights the urgent need to speed up a third social transition (Within this social transition dimension we understand the socio-cultural scope as any social shift implies a cultural transition and vice versa, with its very deep implications.), in addition to the green and digital transitions more widely recognised by the international community. Innovation, or a European industry-led twin transition aiming for climate neutrality and digital leadership, cannot be supported without a firm, responsive, responsible social and environmental engagement. Neither is it possible to tackle a JUST triple transition which is not firmly rooted in worthwhile human development, underpinned by the Sustainable Development Goals. And none of these transitions can go separately and/or isolated; they all need to intertwine around the notion of (more, firmer, and determined) just transition.European society is presented as a huge “co-laboratory” for this “all for one, one for all” boundaryless triple transition to respond to the urgent radical changes demanded by humanity and by the planet. The chapter proposes a radically new vision to pursue a non-explored transformative way to ideate, design, develop, and deliver science, innovation, and collaboration through experimentation and learning, and throughout multi-stakeholder engagement from the n-helix spectrum. It proposes systemic innovation tactics for the “how” (green, techno-digital), for the strategic “what” (green, social), for the purposeful “why” (green, social), and for the operational “how best” (green, social, techno-digital) within the governing principles of eco-centric society. This encompasses: Courageous goal-aligned alternatives, as a shift to new (yet ancient) principles of eco-centric rather than ego-centric behaviour. The adoption of a “complex system mind-set” to build up dynamic, context-sensitive, and holistic approaches to co-design mission and purpose-driven actions, outcomes, outputs, and no-harm impacts. The ignition of the transformative capacity of all forms of collaboration (international, interdisciplinary, intersectoral, intergenerational, inter-institutional, inter-genders) vs hierarchy as alternative governance and distribution models to overcome the unjust and unsustainable biased status quo within evolving, adaptable, flexible, and transformational n-helix ecosystems. The Three MuskEUteers, deeply anchored in European values (human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, rule of law, and human rights), will pave the way and drive humanity towards the achievement of the ambitious, but achievable, targets of the United Nations 2030 Global Agenda, the Sustainable Development Goals.Europe can be the initiator of co-laboratory experiments where social change drives the “all for one, one for all” dream into transforming this three-prong transition into possible real good ecosystems working.

Socially responsible investments (SRI) form the basis of financial sustainability. SRI is described as the integration of environmental, social, and governance factors into investment decisions. SRI behavior cannot be explained only with the classical risk-return approach. There must be a number of more complex factors driving investors into this space. This study aims to shed light on the philosophy of SRI. For this purpose, the SRI process has been examined in the study. To explain the investment process, the factors that motivate investors to invest in SRI are examined under the theory of planned behavior (TPB). Then this model is analyzed using structural equation model (SEM). The obtained results reveal that attitude, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control and eco-friendly activities positively affect SRI intention. Moreover, SRI behavior can be predicted by investment intention and perceived behavioral control.

Corporate social responsibility in the last six decades has been construed as a compensation for environmental pollution. Such compensation in most cases cannot replace the damages done to the natural environment by many companies. The academic discourse in promoting responsible business practices and environmental sustainability remains one of the focal point of reference in the 21st century. The need to challenge the status quo through collective green initiatives and eco-innovation is an effort mitigating against environmental dilapidation. This chapter provides insights on institutionalizing workplace green behavior as a way of minimizing industrial pollution, rather than compensating for environmental pollution. This chapter adopted a literature review approach on corporate social responsibility (CSR), workplace green behavior, and environmental management. Therefore, workplace green behavior should be institutionalized at individual, team, and organizational levels by business leaders. There is need for a perfect fit between HR strategies and green management initiative.

Green transformational leadership (GTL) and corporate social responsibility (CSR) can significantly improve organizational performance (OP) by fostering sustainability, employee involvement, innovation, and advocacy of responsible practices. CSR initiatives can enhance a company's social legitimacy and commitment to ethical principles, environmental conservation, and social advancement. CSR has a significant impact on organizational outcomes, including competitive advantage, long-term performance, reputation, customer satisfaction, customer loyalty, and overall business performance. GTL encourages pro-environmental behavior (PEB) in workers, improving environmental management and performance. The study explores secondary data about the relationship between GTL and employees' eco-friendly behavior, focusing on a value-driven mechanism. The findings revealed that GTL has positive effects on green performance, such as innovation, product development, intrinsic motivation, mindfulness, self-efficacy, and performance and organizational performance can be enhanced by incorporating CSR into GTL. This chapter contributes to the growing field of CSR research by examining its three aspects: community-focused initiatives, employee-focused efforts, and customer-focused strategies.

Full textAbstract:
The requirements for corporate environmental responsibility have shifted from reducing the carbon footprint of production to also cover the increasing use of carbon handprint by lowering the environmental impact of the offering. This paper discusses the guidance and development tools that support environmentally responsible, customer-orientated offering development in small-scale businesses. This support for the businesses has been created through business interviews, benchmark analysis, and co-creation in training sessions. The customer-driven design tools for environmentally responsible product and service solutions consist of a systemic design type of loop canvases to enable the modelling of low-impact consumption and production, and tools to analyze possibilities to lower the consumption impact of offerings, to cover the customer journey, and to support customer behavior change. The design of environmentally sustainable services changes the design goal from customer-driven, desirable solutions to transformation support, for customers as well as for businesses.

This study investigated the design principles applicable to environmentally friendly product design. An experimental approach was taken to examine principles that aid designers in producing an eco-friendly product that consumers will enjoy and use. Another important aspect to this study was to determine whether a user’s positive environmental attitude or a willingness to change for the environment relates to environmentally responsible behavior. Two hypotheses were developed for successful eco-friendly products and then appropriate products were purchased and modified to test these hypotheses. The activity hypothesis claims that if a product adds user activities, is less likely to be used. The feedback hypothesis states that a product that gives clear feedback is more likely to be used than a product that does not. Student participants took home products to use for one week, recorded each time they used the products, and then completed surveys afterword. For the activity hypothesis, we supposed that the product not adding user activities would be used more than the product adding activities. However, the experimental results have shown that this may not always be the case. For the feedback hypothesis, we speculated that visual reminder feedback and energy savings feedback both increase product usage. An increase in eco-friendly product usage would lead to a lessened negative impact that products are having on our environment. Experimental results indicate that there were errors in the experimental design, but these problems also aid in future work for this research.

Full textAbstract:
During the 2020/21 academic year, the active and collaborative learning methodology was implemented in the development of a laboratory practice of the Eco-efficient Materials course of the second year of the University Master's Degree in Engineering, Processing and Characterization of Materials, in virtual modality. The use of this methodology aims to promote student participation and increase their level of responsibility in the laboratory practice, making use of the advantages of a virtual modality. Before carrying out the practice, students were given a script and then an explanatory session and resolution of doubts was held. The practices were carried out in a virtual and synchronous way. The students were responsible for setting the parameters and the teacher was in charge of reproducing them in the laboratory. The objective of this work was to observe the behavior of the students in decision-making, to appreciate if they acquired the necessary knowledge for the development of the practice and to solve the problems that may arise during it. Subsequently, the learning methodology between a virtual and a face-to-face modality was compared, and an active and collaborative learning methodology was developed that can be applied in either of the two scenarios.

Full textAbstract:
El bienestar humano y la sostenibilidad ambiental dependen del correcto manejo de los ecosistemas. Los
responsables del uso del territorio deben comprender que los cambios de políticas y prácticas de manejo
ambiental producen múltiples efectos en estos. La Laguna de Rocha ingresó al Sistema Nacional de Áreas
Protegidas como Paisaje Protegido con el objetivo de conservar el funcionamiento eco sistémico y las
interacciones entre ser humano y naturaleza. Sobre el área de amortiguación se superpone el Plan Local de
Ordenamiento Territorial Lagunas Costeras, el cual pretende regular las inmensas presiones económicas
por el uso del suelo, promoviendo la urbanización y cuadriplicando la superficie posible de construir. Con el
objetivo de transformar amenazas en oportunidades mediante urbanizaciones sostenibles, el proyecto
busca analizar el comportamiento de configuraciones urbano-territoriales, evaluando la sostenibilidad y
compatibilidad con la implementación del área protegida, seleccionando aquellas que minimicen el impacto
en el paisaje y el funcionamiento natural del sistema, habilitando el desarrollo urbano-turístico. Human welfare and environmental sustainability depends on proper ecosystem management. Responsible
land use should realize that politics changes and environmental management practices produce multiple
effects on these. Laguna de Rocha belongs to the National System of Protected Areas under the category of
Protected Landscape in order to preserve the ecosystem functioning and the interactions between humans
and nature. About the buffer zone overlaps the Coastal Lagoons Local Land Use Plan, aims to regulate the
huge economic pressures by land use, promoting urbanization and quadrupling possible to construct
surface. With the objective of transforming threats into opportunities through sustainable developments, the
project aims to analyze the behavior of urban-territorial configurations, evaluating sustainability and support
the implementation of the protected area, selecting those that minimize the impact on the landscape the
natural functioning of the system, enabling urban-tourism development.

Thinking conceptually on what is tangible results in ideas that feed cycles of thought. This incremental continuum gives rise to a reflection on the current crisis of temporal dispersion.Creativity can be continuously stimulated through life-long learning. When exploring societal active methodologies within teaching and learning processes, Design is an interdisciplinary subject aided by: Artificial Intelligence in rethinking the positioning that humans conquered as conscious beings, but which underestimates nature and fails to recognize its dependency on other species; User-centered Psychotherapy and Spatial Interaction towards strategies for emotions and mind impulses which correspond to societal behaviors; Social Sciences in the context of Landscapes and Territorial Dynamics; Bionics and Mimetics reformulating technology through Nature as a model; Human Factors Engineering in the investigation of the cognitive system in the adequacy of physical and digital agents. It is projected consolidate the design of the procedural spiral in the design orientation of a methodology for the Design that leads the memory in anticipation to the retroactive effect of the knowledge that will operationalize responsible creative contents, aiming at the expansion of a remembrance against the forgetfulness of the human being to care Mother Earth.The intention to develop and validate this societal active methodology started from a model (4Xself) elaborated in the context of the PhD that, with the guidance of the respective Practical Assignments Guide, intends to guide a Symbiosis Proto-Methodology. This model was applied in 2019/20 and 2020/21 with students, and preliminary conclusions have already been reached in the scope of SPIRAL project. This project aligns with the 4th SDG on education, specifically target goal 4.7, as we aim to contribute to the SDGs defined by the UN in a transversal way with the methodology. We aspire to achieve acceptance of concepts and practices that integrate the research questions: How to create and implement a Symbiosis methodology that promotes interdisciplinary, sustainable, and ethically committed design processes? How can this methodology consolidate its meaning as a catalyst and aggregator system for acting in the Design process, guaranteeing the benefit of the agents involved?The expected outcomes of this project result from exploring different media channels to disseminate and implement Symbiosis’s proto-methodology whose expertise promote the crossing of knowledge in the respective areas and interactive practices in education, training in companies, in entrepreneurship and professionalization, ensuring the following principles: be transversal to the values and mission of the methodology for a more qualitative strategy in teaching; supporting a transition to information glocalization; reflect on Education as a learning channel for all; encourage a shared responsibility among everyone involved in the design process guaranteeing code of conduct; develop an operational methodology with and for society through Co-design and Participatory Design to better qualify individuals in society and this as a social collectively; improving training methodologies in education through interdisciplinarity and participatory learning; be enrolled in the ECO triangulation in which the Social, Economic and Ecological aspects are marked out between the poles Perception/Production and Nature/Culture in the domains of Design, Art, Science and Engineering
