Breaking boundaries: academia, activism and the arts
The international conference Breaking Boundaries: Academia, Activism and the Arts proposes to bring into focus and critically question common grounds and boundaries between and within the Humanities, political activity and aesthetic production.At a time when boundaries are simultaneously questioned and reinforced – for example between geographical territories, political states, public and private spheres, gendered bodies, creative media, theory and practice, local and global, human, non-human and post-human – the question of what such frontiers stand for, and how and why they might be transgressed offers itself for and, indeed, urges discussion.

Old Tensions, emerging paradoxes in health
European Society for Health and Medical Sociology 17th biennial conference
The positive effect of comprehensive health systems on health outcomes, economic growth and well-being is generally acknowledged, just as of representative policies, scientific-based decisions and trust relationships on social cohesion and respect for political and civil rights in health. Not surprisingly, health policies have become more aligned with the needs of different social groups (e.g. migrants, ethnic minorities, women, LGBT) and of specific medical conditions (e.g. HIV, mental and age-related diseases). Regulators interfere more and more in professional work models and decisions to better control health systems performance and to enhance transparency, but so do empowered citizens in the defence of their rights as patients.

International Conference on the values of tangible heritage
Tangible heritage is the support of some of the most relevant and perennial values of Mankind. It connects us with History, projects us to past environments and to lost cultural contexts, includes landmarks of our identity and constitutes a relevant economic asset. Therefore tangible heritage has intangible aspects inextricably associated to it and when tangible heritage is addressed, intangibility matters. Conservation of tangible heritage is a cultural act with the value approach as a leading concept. The protection statutes, the arguments used to sustain the protection policies, the management options and definition of priorities, the allocation of resources and the uses of heritage assets are intimately connected and dependent on values, bringing to focus the intangible side of their nature.

Tensões em diferentes latitudes: austeridade, democracia e direitos
O processo de globalização, as opções de desenvolvimento hoje muito marcadas pela “austeridade” no contexto de políticas económicas de mercado liberalizado, onde tudo tende a ser mercantilizado, colocam os direitos dos cidadãos, desde logo os laborais e os sociais, sob grandes tensões. Com intervenções da Europa e da América Latina proceder-se-á a uma troca de ideias e interpretações sobre problemas diversos das sociedades e sobre questões do direito numa perspectiva da defesa dos valores democráticos e cívicos.

International Conference
Many African countries experience a context in which society is constantly faced against the State or private corporations. In this situation, civil society organizations become key players into continent’s political chessboard. Acting in various fields and often seeking non-traditional forms of organization, they pose new challenges to their analysis and interpretation. To meet these defiances, the Centro de Estudos Internacionais of the Instituto Universitário de Lisboa (CEI-IUL) promote between 12th and 13th January 2017, the International Conference Activisms in Africa, which will discuss the new profiles of social activism in Africa and the perspectives of change they bring.

E se o envelhecimento não fosse um problema?
O projeto UAW – “United at Work” é um projeto de experimentação social cujo principal objetivo é analisar a oportunidade, importância e adequabilidade de promover projetos de empreendedorismo intergeracional como forma de combater o problema emergente na sociedade portuguesa do desemprego jovem e sénior altamente qualificado, promovendo ao mesmo tempo o trabalho de criação conjunta de projetos empresariais. Esta experiência tem em consideração a complementaridade das qualidades humanas e profissionais, do conhecimento e da experiência de jovens e de seniores e tem por base o pressuposto da alteração fundamental verificada no mercado de trabalho, com o aumento da incerteza e da natureza temporária de muitos empregos, e da relevância e eficiência do empreendedorismo como instrumento para promover o autoemprego em relação aos desempregados altamente qualificados.
