Abstract:
This article outlines the community economies of Esch-sur-Alzette, the ‘second city’ of Luxembourg. ‘Community economies’ ‐ an approach outlined by J.K. Gibson-Graham ‐ draws attention to alternative narratives of economic development and the representation of economic identity. Despite (the Grand Duchy of) Luxembourg’s reputation as a European Union centre, with substantial finance and tax activity, Esch-sur-Alzette is a post-industrial and multilingual melting pot. The alternative narrative here is of the multiple community-based organisations and movements in Esch-sur-Alzette: an energy cooperative, urban gardening, an upcycling clothing factory, a local food shop and restaurant, and vibrant civil society discussions and interventions in (inter)national politics. Civil society, while central to both understandings of grassroots environmental action and the community economies framework of Gibson-Graham, takes on quite a different flavour in Luxembourg. This article then takes the case of Luxembourg to reread the relationship of the state to the so-called third sector, in doing so defending the political possibilities of community economies.

Abstract:
AbstractFor sustainability purposes, steel reuse at the material, structural element, and structure levels has been proposed and encouraged in recent years. Designing for deconstruction or disassembly is identified as one key strategy. A recent RFCS (Research Fund for Coal and Steel) project – REDUCE – has investigated the methodology and opportunities to design and facilitate the reuse of composite structures in steel frames. Furthermore, a demonstration building – the Pavilion “Petite Maison” – has been constructed using the solutions developed within REDUCE. The “Petite Maison” is located in Esch‐sur‐Alzette, Luxembourg, and it contributes to Esch2022, European Capital of Culture, by promoting circularity, reuse, and sustainability. It is open to public visits and is planned to be deconstructed with elements being tracked for reuse. This paper presents the design concept of the structural system of the “Petite Maison”, proposals of standard and modular elements and kits, and the analyzing methods for adaptable steel connections and demountable shear connections that are applied in the system.

Abstract:
Diet and nutrition have a tremendous influence on health and disease. Dietary constituents can affect health and have been known to supplement with essential nutrients, minerals, and calories for physiological homeostasis. However, diet can also affect gene expression through epigenetic reprogramming or by altering the level of micronutrients. While a nutrigenomics study has delineated this causal link, a recent study published in EMBO Molecular Medicine by Grant et al. went a step further to establish that maternal intake of dietary fibers can alter the fetal gut microbiome, influencing the diversity of the intestinal bacterial flora, thereby affecting the gut-brain axis. Although the relationship between diet and fertility in males and females has been reported, the effect on postnatal life is not well documented. In this study by Grant et al. at the (Luxembourg Institute of Health, Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg), the authors reported that selected feeding of fiber-free diets to pregnant mice alters the gut microbiome composition of their neonate pups depriving them of protective and beneficial commensal, Akkermansia muciniphila, a mucin-foraging bacterium. Further, these animals exhibited heightened immune activity by enriching defense response pathways and IL-22 expression. Therefore, the protective role of A. muciniphila is associated with its protection against chronic inflammation through TLR4 signaling. The author’s study has far-reaching conclusions on improving human health outcomes by the rational choice of food, drugs, and lifestyle to prevent gut dysbiosis and colonization of the right microbiome.

Abstract:
This work presents a methodology for the hydrological characterization of natural and urban landscapes, focusing on accurate estimations of infiltration capacity and runoff characteristics. By combining existing methods from the literature, we created a systemic process that integrates satellite-based vegetation maps, topography, and soil permeability data. This process generates a detailed vegetation classification and slope-corrected composite curve number (CNcα) map using information at the subpixel level, which is crucial for estimating excess runoff during intense precipitation events. The algorithm designed with this methodology is automated and utilizes freely accessible multispectral imagery. Leveraging the vegetation–impervious–soil (V-I-S) model, it is assumed that land cover comprises V-I-S components at each pixel. Automated Music and spectral Separability-based Endmember Selection is employed on a generic spectral library to obtain the most relevant V-I-S endmember spectra for a particular image, which is then employed in multiple endmember spectral mixture analysis to obtain V-I-S fraction maps. The derived fractions are utilized in combination with the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index and the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index to adapt the CNcα map to different seasons and climatic conditions. The methodology was applied to Esch-sur-Alzette, Luxembourg, over a four-year period to validate the methodology and quantify the increase in the impervious surface area in the commune and the relationship with the runoff dynamics. This approach provides valuable insights into infiltration and runoff dynamics across diverse temporal and geographic ranges.

Abstract:
The reality of the past is complex in its many facets and perspectives; however, dominant historical narratives have overtaken the representation of the past through a simplified version from a single perspective. Academics are complicit in this process, not only by emphasizing some types of (historic) source material over others but also by claiming authority over the past. Sharing the authority to narrate the past is therefore a crucial step to allow uncertainty back into the historical narrative. This article briefly discusses how this “objectified past” and the narrated past can coexist alongside each other when we construct history as a polyvocal plural narrative that is aware of its contemporary agenda and public. To exemplify how these mechanisms work in both a European and an Asian context, I will discuss case studies related to my research on the Banda Islands in Indonesia as well as my recent work in the postindustrial city Esch-sur-Alzette in Luxembourg.

Abstract:
The Luxembourg Time Machine (LuxTIME) is an interdisciplinary project that studies the historical exposome during the industrialization of the Minett region, located in the south of Luxembourg. Exposome research encompasses all external and internal non-genetic factors influencing the health of the population, such as air pollution, green spaces, noise, work conditions, physical activity, and diet. Due to the wide scope of the interdisciplinary project, the historical study of the exposome in Belval involved the collection of quantitative and qualitative data from the National Archive of Luxembourg, various local archives (e.g., the communes of Esch-sur-Alzette and Sanem), the National Library, the Library of National Statistics STATEC, the National Geoportal of Luxembourg, scientific data from other research centers, and information from newspapers and journals digitized in eluxemburgensia.1 The data collection and the resulting inventory were performed to create a proof of concept to critically test the potential of a multi-layered research design for the study of the historical exposome in Belval. The guiding navigation tool throughout the project was data visualization. It has facilitated the exploration of the data collected (or just the data) and the metadata. It has also been a valuable tool for mapping knowledge and defining the scope of the project. Furthermore, different data visualization techniques have helped us to reflect on the process of knowledge sharing, to understand how the relevance of certain topics changed throughout the project and why, and to learn about the publication process in different journals and the experience of the participants. Data visualization is used not only as a means to an end but also to embrace the idea of sandcastles using a speculative and process-oriented approach to advance knowledge within all research fields involved. LuxTIME has proven to be an ideal case study to explore the possibilities offered by different data visualization concepts and techniques resulting in a data visualization toolbox that could be evaluated and extended in other interdisciplinary projects.

"3.F. Round table: Advancing the sustainable development goals through intersectoral actions: using co-benefits." European Journal of Public Health 31, Supplement_3 (October 1, 2021). http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/eurpub/ckab164.194.

Abstract:
Abstract Objectives The aim of the workshop is to analyze how health can contribute to the attainment of the non-health related sustainable development goals (SDGs). To this end, we will discuss two separate though interrelated specific objectives: Background Country responses to the COVID-19 pandemic have demonstrated that large scale intersectoral action for health is possible- if the policy issue is of high importance and sufficiently consensual. The problem this workshop addresses is how to keep this invaluable intersectoral work flourishing long after the COVID-19 pandemic has passed. Put differently, how can intersectoral work with the health sector continue to lead to increased health benefits as well as increased benefits for other sectors? One way to do this is the use of co-benefits in intersectoral action. Co-benefits are substantial and specific benefits to the other sectors that can be gained by investing in health-related programs. Co-benefits can be referred to as the intended positive side effects of a policy or intervention. Co-benefits avoid imposing its health objectives on other sectors but rather aims at contributing to the other sectors objectives. The panel will discuss the following cross-cutting issues the economics of co-benefits in intersectoral actions the governance and politics of co-benefits in intersectoral action To make the discussion as concrete as possible the panelists will focus on the following SDGS: SDG4 Quality education SDG9 Industry, innovation and infrastructure SDG10 Reduced inequalities SDG13 Climate action Added value The SDGs progress is uneven and sluggish. They have, however, become a benchmark for solving the most pressing issues humanity, the environment and the planet are confronted with. Discussing co-benefits as a way to advance intersectoral action and the attainment of the SDGs adds therefore great value. Coherence between presentations and the topic of the workshop: four SDGs have been selected to discuss exemplary the economics, governance and politics of intersectoral action based on co-benefits. Each of the panelist will therefore tie their contribution very closely to the topic of the workshop even though they are speaking on different SDGs. Interactivity After introducing the topic the panel discussion will go in three rounds addressing different aspects: a) the economics of co-benefits (magnitude, low hanging fruits); b) the intersectoral structures used to advance intersectoral actions c) the political force field and contexts in which to advance intersectoral action. In between these rounds the chair will pick up questions coming through the chat-box and feed them to the panelists. Speakers/Panelists Charley E.

Co-benefits combine the economics, governance and politics of addressing the sustainable development goals.

Abstract:
Suite aux travaux de la Commission spéciale pour l'étude des spoliations des biens juifs au Luxembourg pendant les années de guerre 1940-1945 (2001-2009), trois idées dominaient la compréhension de la dépossession des personnes considérées comme juives au Luxembourg pendant la Seconde Guerre Mondiale. La première, reprenant la phrase de Paul Cerf, était de penser qu’il n’y avait « point de Rothschild parmi les juifs luxembourgeois », autrement dit qu’il n’y avait pas de collection d’œuvres d’art parmi cette population. La deuxième était que les bénéficiaires de la dépossession furent les organisations allemandes et leurs soutiens. La troisième était que le montant global de la dépossession pouvait être évalué sur la base de la comptabilité du Chef der Zivilverwaltung, l’administration civile allemande. Par une approche microhistorique et l’étude de deux cas – celui des propriétaires d’œuvres d’art et celui des habitants d’un quartier de la ville d’Esch-sur-Alzette – la thèse remet en question ces idées et ouvre la voie à de nouveaux développements des Holocaust studies sur un territoire jusqu’ici peu étudié
Following the work of the Special commission for the study of the spoliation of Jewish property in Luxembourg during the years of war 1940-1945 (2001-2009), three ideas dominated the understanding of the dispossession of people considered as Jews in Luxembourg during World War II. The first one, following a sentence written by Paul Cerf, was to think that there were “no Rothschild among the Luxembourgish Jews”, in other words that there was no art collection among this population. The second one was that the beneficiaries of the dispossession were German organizations and their supports. The third one was that the global amount of the dispossession could be evaluated based on the bookkeeping of the Chef der Zivilverwaltung, the German civil administration. Using a microhistorical approach and two study-cases – the one of the owners of art pieces and the one of the inhabitants of a neighborhood in the city of Esch-sur-Alzette – this dissertation questions these ideas and opens the way to new developments of the Holocaust studies in a territory rarely studied so far

Abstract:
AbstractOne of the main steps in developing urban building energy models (UBEM) is the classification of the building stock according to building archetypes. Different approaches have been proposed to accomplish this task, some based on the application of clustering techniques, or a combination of expert knowledge, deterministic classification, and data driven approaches. This paper proposes the utilization of a hybrid approach where exploratory data analysis is combined with feature extraction and feature selection to support clustering. The proposed methodology was applied to the building stock of the city of Esch-sur-Alzette (Grand Duchy of Luxembourg). The used data set includes buildings’ geometrical and physical characteristics, preassigned occupancy estimates, and final energy use simulated with a quasi-steady-state model. According to the variables’ combination and deterministic building stock fragmentation schemes used, the number of archetypes identified varied between 12 and 89. The paper shows the potential of clustering techniques for the development of archetypes, even though this must be combined with other (deterministic) fragmentation methods because clustering alone does not allow for the differentiation of building use typologies and construction periods, both of which must be considered to characterize buildings properly.
