Governance<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top: 10px;\">Rural fires are a recurrent concern in Portugal that devastates immense areas every year. Join us in this session to explore the multifaceted dynamics of rural fire risk, from public perceptions to spatial fire behaviour. Through diverse methodological approaches presenters will address the gaps between expert knowledge and community beliefs, offering practical insights for data-informed policy and governance. Together, these contributions highlight the need for socially grounded and scientifically robust wildfire management strategies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 15px 15px 5px 15px; border-radius: 6px; margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n<div style=\"display: flex !important; flex-wrap: wrap !important; gap: 20px !important;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 30% !important; min-width: 250px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: rgba(165, 49, 3, 0.85); color: white; padding: 6px 14px; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 4px; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: flex-start; margin-bottom: 10px;\"><i class=\"fas fa-chalkboard-teacher\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;\"><\/i> Session II<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 10px;\"><i class=\"fas fa-map-marker-alt\"><\/i><strong> Local<\/strong>: Room B326<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify;\"><i class=\"fas fa-calendar-alt\"><\/i><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\"> Date: Monday, June 30<sup>th<\/sup>, 2025 | 17h00-18h30<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 65% !important; min-width: 300px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<p><strong style=\"display: block; margin-top: 10px;\">Navigating Transformation: Education, Innovation, and Decision-Making for Sustainable Futures<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top: 10px;\">Sustainable development has multiple fronts as evidenced by the United Nations&#8217; 12 Sustainable Development Goals. This session explores how data-driven tools, systemic thinking, and institutional collaboration can enhance sustainable development, particularly in education and innovation ecosystems. Oral communications will range from multidimensional assessments of educational quality and regional performance trends in Europe to a comprehensive review of multi-criteria decision-making in sustainability, and an in-depth study of Industry 4.0&#8217;s impact on University\u2013Industry partnerships. Together, they provide a critical reflection on how metrics, models, and cooperation can drive more inclusive, adaptive, and forward-looking policies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"padding: 15px 15px 5px 15px; border-radius: 6px; margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n<div style=\"display: flex !important; flex-wrap: wrap !important; gap: 20px !important;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 30% !important; min-width: 250px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<div style=\"background-color: rgba(165, 49, 3, 0.85); color: white; padding: 6px 14px; font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; border-radius: 4px; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: flex-start; margin-bottom: 10px;\"><i class=\"fas fa-chalkboard-teacher\" style=\"margin-right: 8px;\"><\/i> Session III<\/div>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify; margin-bottom: 10px;\"><i class=\"fas fa-map-marker-alt\"><\/i><strong> Local<\/strong>: Room B326<\/h3>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; line-height: 1.5; text-align: justify;\"><i class=\"fas fa-calendar-alt\"><\/i><strong><span style=\"color: #993300;\"> Date: Tuesday, July 1<sup>st<\/sup>, 2025 | 09h00-10h30<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 65% !important; min-width: 300px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<p><strong style=\"display: block; margin-top: 10px;\">Operational Intelligence: Building Resilient Systems through Digitalization<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin-top: 10px;\">In an increasingly digital world, it is crucial that we understand how to coordinate man and machine to extract the best of both worlds. Session III delves into how digital technologies, such as Digital Twins, Generative AI and crowd-based logistics are reshaping operations, foresight and strategic control in complex environments. From optimizing last-mile delivery through multi-objective heuristics to enhancing supply chain visibility with intelligent control towers, the presentations reveal how data, algorithms, and design shape modern decision-making.

Given this, issues about the sustainability of the environment and societies are becoming a daily concern of businesses, policymakers and scholars alike. Considering the current situation, it is imperative that socio-technical changes are implemented that drive us to a more sustainable future. Join us in this deep dive into the current and future landscape on urban waste management. During this time, we will bring together members of the high and low management of waste management organizations with key members of academia working the forefront of waste management problems. Leveraging this pool of expertise, we will reflect on how we must change to achieve a more sustainable future for the environment and societies and how can academia and research contribute to that change.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #fbf7f4; padding: 15px 15px 5px 15px; border-radius: 6px; margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n<div style=\"display: flex !important; flex-wrap: wrap !important; gap: 20px !important;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 30% !important; min-width: 250px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin: 0;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"margin-bottom: 2px;\" src=\"https:\/\/fe.up.pt\/dce\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Joana-Maia-Dias-FEUP-e1749025916472.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"160\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0;\"><strong>Joana Maia Dias<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0;\"><em>Associate Professor<\/em>, FEUP<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 65% !important; min-width: 300px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<p><b>Biography<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin: 10px 0 5px 0;\"><strong>Joana Maia Moreira Dias<\/strong>, PhD in Environmental Engineering, is an Associate Professor of the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Director of FEUP&#8217;s Bachelor&#8217;s and Master&#8217;s degree courses in Environmental Engineering.<br \/>\nShe coordinates continuing education courses in Circular Economy, is a member of FEUP&#8217;s sustainability commission and belongs to the executive committee of the Education for Sustainable Development project at FEUP.<br \/>\nShe integrates LEPABE research unit and has a large number of scientific publications having supervised several thesis in the field of Environmental Sciences and Technologies, in particular sustainable waste management and the production of renewable fuels, in collaboration with various companies and with international connections.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f5f5f5; padding: 15px 15px 5px 15px; border-radius: 6px; margin-bottom: 15px;\">\n<div style=\"display: flex !important; flex-wrap: wrap !important; gap: 20px !important;\">\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 30% !important; min-width: 250px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center; margin: 0;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" style=\"margin-bottom: 2px;\" src=\"https:\/\/fe.up.pt\/dce\/2025\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/Soraia-Taipa_Lipor_new.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"160\" height=\"160\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0;\"><strong>Soraia Taipa<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0;\"><em>Head of Inovation Management Unit<\/em>, Lipor<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"flex: 0 0 65% !important; min-width: 300px !important; box-sizing: border-box !important;\">\n<p><b>Biography<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify; margin: 10px 0 5px 0;\"><strong>Soraia Taipa<\/strong> leads the Innovation Management Unit at LIPOR, driving bold thinking and value creation.
