“…The 2020 manifesto on responsible modeling by Saltelli et al [52] underscores the importance of sensitivity analysis, and both the European Commission [21] and the European Science Academies [58] have called for sensitivity auditing in the policy domain. As detailed by Razavi et al [50], sensitivity audits have also been applied in the domains of education [3], food security [53], public health [37], and sustainability [24]. We argue that algorithm auditors should consider stability among the critical metrics they select from, as suggested by Brown et al [10].…”

Automated hiring systems are among the fastest-developing of all high-stakes AI systems. Among these are algorithmic personality tests that use insights from psychometric testing, and promise to surface personality traits indicative of future success based on job seekers' resumes or social media profiles. We interrogate the validity of such systems using stability of the outputs they produce, noting that reliability is a necessary, but not a sufficient,

“…Similarly, Inayatullah (2010) has envisaged a more preventive turn in healthcare, encompassing city design as one of the means to support healthier lifestyles and prevent non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Although the futures of health, in general, have been explored extensively (see e.g., Lamé, Oualid, & Stal-Le Cardinal, 2019;Piano & Robinson, 2019;Tarkkala et al, 2019), there is little prior research done in the future of PA. Thus, although the health-related co-benefits of PA and active travel have been established, there is a lack of a comprehensive futures perspective, which would tie these two together and address the topic from a future-oriented lifestyle angle.…”

“…This situation further remarks the concept that pandemics are strictly linked to insufficient or absent food safety assessment and disease prevention protocols (e.g., as happening every time Ebola Viruses outbreak in Central Africa). It is necessary to remark that the food regulations across countries vary and the quality standards of the same food items produced in different countries are not the same ( 20 , 21 ). The current COVID-19 pandemic, perhaps more than others, highlights that it is necessary to align food security protocols on a global scale since country specific inadequacies may cause serious global consequences.…”

The ongoing pandemic caused by the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is literally changing the world. From December 2019 to date, more than 22 million cases have been reported worldwide and global health institutions are acting to slow down the virus transmission and are looking for possible prevention strategies in case of a new outbreak. As in other endemic or pandemic phenomena, the issues mostly covered by scientific and media attention are related to the diagnostic and therapeutic approach of COVID-19. However, a still neglected issue regards the adoption of a more systemic approach considering the close connection among the infection, the environment, and human behaviors, including the role of diet and urban management. To shed light on this issue, we brought together a faculty group involving experts in environment and biodiversity, food safety, human nutrition, and behavior, bioprospecting, as well as medical doctors having a deep knowledge of the complex historical relationship between humanity and vector-borne infections. Two main aspects emerged from the integrative overview of the current COVID-19 pandemic: (i) the scientific community should start sharing social actions and policy advocacy based on the assumption that human health strongly depends upon a sustainable exploitation of natural resources in populated areas; (ii) the specific strategic role of the cities in developing sustainable food systems and promoting healthy dietary patterns. Definitely, some priority issues should be addressed to achieve these goals, such as global efforts to increase food safety and security, which would benefit from urban and peri-urban agriculture enhancement, smallholder food producers support, and ecosystem services and local biodiversity maintenance.
