“…This is not to suggest that these are the only key changes necessary to reach a sustainable future. There is also an urgent need for other key actions, such as moving to an ecological economics (e.g., [76,77]) as well as acting on overpopulation (e.g., [78]) and overconsumption (e.g., [79]). However, ecocentrism and a sense of wonder are rarely foregrounded as key solutions via education, hence why they are the focus in this paper.…”

This article argues that rejuvenating a sense of wonder towards nature is essential to ecocentric education and to finding a sustainable future. It examines the barriers that block education for wonder and looks at the issues around education for wonder in the home, at school, at university, and in the community in general. It considers the scale of a natural area in terms of wonder education, and ways of teaching wonder in school that increase wonder rather than isolate the student from nature. It also considers the issue of an "education for sustainable development" influenced by anthropocentrism, in contrast to an environmental education where some scholars accept the intrinsic value of nature. It discusses the need to balance "facts" in education with ethics. The article concludes by summarizing the steps needed to re-educate for wonder.

“…crescente do planeta é o dilema sobre o qual muitos cientistas estão trabalhando. Estimativas apontam para a necessidade da produção de alimentos aumentar cerca de 70% em 2050 e dobrar ou triplicar em 2100 (Crist, Mora e Engelman, 2017). No entanto, como aumentar a produção alimentar quando se considera que o sistema de produção alimentar planetária, sobretudo a produção animal, contribui grandemente para as mudanças climáticas (Ripple et al, no prelo).…”

A autora delineia a sua trajetória de convivência íntima com as violências e com as consequências infligidas na mente e no corpo de todas as pessoas que estão envolvidas nelas. Com exemplo de Moçambique, África do Sul e Ruanda e violências ligadas a guerra, a fome, ao HIV/AIDS e ao gênero ela articula, percorrendo fragmentos de suas experiências, as diferentes camadas e formas de violência que afligem os/as mais desemparados/as. A aproximação da violência física, da violência estrutural, da violência simbólica e das suas várias combinações destroem os seres humanas e, sobretudo, os/ as que têm de conviver com a multiplicidade das suas formas. A proposta é de encontrar formas de desenvolver uma nova ética de cidadania, de empatia e solidariedade que procura desarmar estas violências. palavras-chaveViolência, saúde planetária, fome, pobreza, gênero

“…In mid‐2017, the world population reached 7.5 billion, which has been tripled as compared to only 2.5 billion on 1950's. Research statistically predicted that by year 2100, there will be more than 11 billion population across the global . Consequently, the need for global resources are increasing along with rapid growth of modern technologies, due to the higher number of population .…”

For past decades, the industry and academician realized the core of effective process safety management (PSM) is closely related to good process safety culture. Major accidents in process industry occur at low frequency but the consequences on people, environmental, and assets damage are catastrophic. Previous accidents in process industry recorded many deaths and injuries of facility personnel and public. Hence, many regulations and best practices were introduced to avoid major accidents from occurring and to mitigate the consequences. Risk based process safety (RBPS) Guideline is one of best practices to manage PSM, using risk‐based approaches. When accidents happened, internal and external stakeholders are greatly impacted if it is not mitigated effectively. Thus, element stakeholder outreach which lies in Commit to Process Safety pillars are considered as important elements to protect the stakeholders and promoting good safety culture. This article presents a structured technique for stakeholder outreach using RBPS approaches and a work‐aid model to ease its implementation in process industry. The technique and work‐aid model are beneficial to help the organization managing stakeholders, educating the public on risk management and the importance of embracing safety culture in their life.
