The Transformation of Care and Well-Being
in a Context of Change
We study the emerging forms of social and healthcare support and provision in the current context of deinstitutionalisation, the care crisis, population ageing, and technological and ecological transformation.
Disaster Risk Reduction and Community Resilience
This subline addresses disaster risk reduction and emergency governance through a participatory and inclusive approach. It examines how communities, institutions, and public services co-produce knowledge, trust, and response capacities, and how social and territorial inequalities shape exposure to risk, care responsibilities, and mutual support practices.
Resilient Cities and the Climate Crisis
This subline develops creative methodologies and intervention practices to analyse and address the impacts of the climate crisis on urban life. In collaboration with professionals, activists, and communities in our cities, we work on mapping climate vulnerability and designing urban care infrastructures and practices. We place particular emphasis on how social inequalities and bodily differences—such as ageing or disability—shape exposure to risks and adaptive capacities, as well as distinctive practices of environmental resilience.
