“…Nevertheless, these factors should be considered when designing education programs for the ecological transition. As such, the concept of socio-ecological transition could provide an interesting theoretical foundation, while opening up a research program to study how it is perceived in non-scientific contexts (Larocque, 2023). Additionally, our results show that differences in the representational content are mainly linked to interest in science and the parents' socio-professional category.…”

Junior high school students are tomorrow’s key protagonists in the ecological transition. They need enlightened education to face the uncertainty and challenges of climate change. The development of climate change education programs requires a clear understanding of how young people perceive the issue. This study deals with social representations. Its aim was to understand how social background and interest in science are linked to the way young people perceive the concept of the ecological transition. Four hundred twenty-nine junior high school students took part in this study. Data were collected and subjected to prototypical analysis and factorial correspondence analysis. Three main findings emerged from the analysis: (1) the participants had significant knowledge of the ecological transition, (2) their awareness of the social aspects of climate change was limited, and (3) their representations of the ecological transition were linked to their interest in science and their parents’ social background. To conclude, these results underline the importance of educating all social classes about effective solutions for the ecological transition. Our findings also highlight the need to consider existing representations and prior knowledge when designing educational programs on climate change issues.

This study aims to analyse the indigenous women's movement to protect nature using the perspective of religious ecofeminism. The Indigenous People Alliance of Indonesia (Aliansi Masyarakat Adat Nusantara-AMAN) documented 13 cases of indigenous territory seizure, affecting 103,717 indigenous people and 251 hectares of indigenous territories. Consequently, the patterns of indigenous knowledge related to spirituality, as lived by indigenous women, prompt them to respond to the exploitation of nature. This research seeks to confirm the basic thesis of ecofeminism that links the domination of women and nature. The study employs qualitative methods, utilising text data from online media such as Twitter. The selection of data sources is based on the role of online media as a space for the representation of indigenous women and indigenous peoples. The main findings indicate that indigenous women have successfully positioned themselves at the forefront of nature protection through their movements. The indigenous women's movement to protect nature exemplifies a relationship based on indigenous understanding and knowledge, which is inseparable from the interpretation of nature itself. Equally important, the response of indigenous women reflects the interpretation of humans and nature as interdependent entities that provide sustenance, a concept known as religious ecofeminism. This concept embodies a cultural and religious understanding of the cosmology of life. The study contributes to raising awareness of the critical role of indigenous women in environmental conservation and demonstrates that their movements are grounded in religious ecofeminism values.

“…The integration of sustainability principles is crucial for fostering economic resilience and driving innovation. Companies and sectors that place a high emphasis on sustainability are more effectively situated to respond to shifts in market dynamics and regulatory landscapes [23]. In addition, the implementation of sustainable practises serves as a catalyst for innovation, stimulating the emergence of novel technologies and solutions that have the potential to stimulate economic expansion.…”

The use of sustainability is of utmost importance when it comes to tackling the environmental issues that our global community is currently confronting, ranging from climate change to the depletion of natural resources. The publication titled “Beyond Limits: Envisioning Sustainable Design and Production Ecosystems” delves into the imperative need for a paradigm shift in order to effectively address the aforementioned difficulties. This paradigm shift necessitates a break from conventional, sequential frameworks towards circular and regenerative systems, signifying a fundamental shift in our design and production methodologies. The concept of sustainable design and production ecosystems is intrinsically characterised by its complex nature. The dimensions encompassed by these practises are broad, encompassing the reimagining of design processes, the careful selection of materials, the optimisation of production procedures, the rethinking of supply chain management, and the consideration of end-of-life scenarios. Each of these characteristics plays a crucial role in establishing a comprehensive and enduring environment. The fundamental objective of this notion is to develop a state of peaceful coexistence between human activities and the ecosystems of the earth. In addition to the reduction of harm, it promotes active engagement in activities that contribute to the overall welfare of our environment. By exploring this paradigm-shifting perspective, we establish the foundation for a forthcoming era in which human pursuits harmoniously integrate with the ecological systems of the Earth, ensuring a sustainable and wealthy global community for future generations.
