“…Thus, we tended to exclude articles which focused on sector or discipline-specific areas of knowledge (e.g. health, engineering, computer science) as these generally focus on the application of frequently discussed concepts in a given context, and also, literature reviews that did not reveal new significant findings in the field (Hammersley, 2020 ; Powell et al, 2022 ). When assessing quality of the sources, we kept in mind that grey literature (such as reports by international and independent organisations) may not strictly meet the highest standards of academic rigour (e.g.…”

“…Our decision to opt for a non-systematic review and carry out a thematic analysis inductively comes at the cost of a certain bias towards our own professional interests and disciplinary perspectives. We nonetheless defend our approach as it facilitates the inclusion of voices which are often marginalised in the academic discussion or overshadowed by reports of financially strong institutions (Powell & Koelemay, 2022 ). Furthermore, databases that are reputable in academic venues are often dominated by for-profit publishing houses and also not free from algorithmic biases.…”

This paper presents an ethical framework designed to support the development of critical data literacy for research methods courses and data training programmes in higher education. The framework we present draws upon our reviews of literature, course syllabi and existing frameworks on data ethics. For this research we reviewed 250 research methods syllabi from across the disciplines, as well as 80 syllabi from data science programmes to understand how or if data ethics was taught. We also reviewed 12 data ethics frameworks drawn from different sectors. Finally, we reviewed an extensive and diverse body of literature about data practices, research ethics, data ethics and critical data literacy, in order to develop a transversal model that can be adopted across higher education. To promote and support ethical approaches to the collection and use of data, ethics training must go beyond securing informed consent to enable a critical understanding of the techno-centric environment and the intersecting hierarchies of power embedded in technology and data. By fostering ethics as a method, educators can enable research that protects vulnerable groups and empower communities.

“…To our knowledge this paper is the first systematic literature search on the topic of legal issues surrounding or arising from medical 3DP. Systematic search methodologies (including systematic reviews, scoping reviews, topical reviews and critical reviews) (Powell and Koelemay, 2022), while the mainstay of medical research, are not common in the legal field. This became evident while extending our search into legal databases.…”

Introduction: 3D printing has quickly found many applications in medicine. However, as with any new technology the regulatory landscape is struggling to stay abreast. Unclear legislation or lack of legislation has been suggested as being one hindrance for wide-scale adoption.Methods: A scoping review was performed in PubMed, Web of Science, SCOPUS and Westlaw International to identify articles dealing with legal issues in medical 3D printing.Results: Thirty-four articles fulfilling inclusion criteria were identified in medical/technical databases and fifteen in the legal database. The majority of articles dealt with the USA, while the EU was also prominently represented. Some common unresolved legal issues were identified, among them terminological confusion between custom-made and patient-matched devices, lack of specific legislation for patient-matched products, and the undefined legal role of CAD files both from a liability and from an intellectual property standpoint. Data protection was mentioned only in two papers and seems an underexplored topic.Conclusion: In this scoping review, several relevant articles and several common unresolved legal issues were identified including a need for terminological uniformity in medical 3D printing. The results of this work are planned to inform our own deeper legal analysis of these issues in the future.

“…Para ello se realizó una primera aproximación mediante palabras clave, la valoración de la relación pregunta de investigación-metodología, scoping review y la discusión de los autores sobre la correcta adaptación de los componentes (estrategia de búsqueda, criterios y extracción de datos) (Khalil y Tricco, 2022). El resultado de esta fase inicial fue la determinación de que esta sería la mejor metodología debido a su carácter exploratorio, su alcance amplio, pero profundo, y la mejor aportación a las bases de futuros estudios (Powell y Koelemay, 2022).…”

The insertion of social movements in the protection of the environment: bodies and learnings in the Recôncavo da Bahia

The article discusses the possibilities and actions of social movements and traditional communities in protecting the environment in the Recôncavo da Bahia through interventions of the Federal University of the Recôncavo da Bahia, UFRB. As a territory of identity, the Recôncavo is home to niches for social movements and diverse communities. With their bodies, educational actions, and cultures, they develop actions ranging from the preservation of heritage to the struggle for natural spaces for cultural survival, acting together with the state apparatus to preserve and protect the environment. Methodologically, a bibliographic review was carried out with a study of education, environment, and physical education; as a result, new reflections that may help society preserve the environment with sustainability are proposed. The main results point to strengthening institutional and community configurations, the visualization of collectives and minority groups, and the generation of democratic platforms for change based on the dialogue between different knowledge and world visions. We conclude with the possibility of disciplinary integration and the need for further studies.
