The present proposal is based on the contextualization of the water realities of two regions, Médio Paraíba and Alto Tietê, located in the states of Paraíba and São Paulo, respectively, increasingly affected by water scarcity, with their specificities associated with water security. The project builds from the assumption of adaptive governance and sustainability to prioritize the develop…
This proposal, COPPLANNING - Community-based planning and participation for low carbon transition: a global south-north comparative study centring traditional and First Nations communities, combines forces in mapping best practice community-based planning and participation, including to deliver positive outcomes for traditional and First Nations communities as part of low carbon transitio…
In a context strongly marked due to climate changes and uncertainty, and with strong tendencies of alterations in the dynamics of the hydric regime, it is pressing to advance in the knowledge and innovation associated to the adoption of flexible measures of adaptive management of water and the implementation of practices of socio-environmental governance in an integrated and interdependen…
Today, among many complex exploratory situations in the world, Santos Basin Pre-salt and the Gulf of Mexico, are a representative example of technological and governance challenges. Although there is a complete literature about the expansion of offshore in Brazil, it is still incipient in the debate about the environmental governance aspects related to the offshore activities. A partnersh…
The aim of this project is to analyze framings of and strategies towards water security in the São Paulo macro-metropolis in the context of climate change. The context of the macro-metropolis - the urban and rural territory that is interdependent with the São Paulo metropolitan region - matters here, as water is sourced at increasing distances from São Paulo, competition is increasing ove…

The cultural dimension of sustainability is one of the main challenges for facing environmental problems and climate change impact at global and local scales. Processes of river regeneration have been fundamental for the recuperation of ecosystemic services of the waters in global macrometropolis. This project tests the hypothesis of the centrality of culture in river regeneration and urb…
Faced with a scenario of intensified interspatial competition, and the phenomena of reterritorialization and rescaling, the concepts of Soft space and Soft planning have been highlighted as key approaches in the emerging international planning system. Although its origin is related to the United Kingdom planning system, such approaches are being used increasingly in the European continent…
The water crisis is a contemporary phenomenon in the São Paulo macrometropolis that requires complex interdisciplinary planning tools that enable accurate and rapid decision making in the face of scarcity. Relying on good governance and increasingly accurate information is essential for these processes to happen. An important part of these instruments use indicators, however, their use, w…
