SUMMARY:RE:VIVE Europe: Rethinking Low-Density Territories\, Inspiring Big Futures
DESCRIPTION:The programme will take place in Oliveira do Hospital\, at Oliveira do Hospital School of Technology and Management (ESTGOH)\, part of the Polytechnic University of Coimbra\, and will be taught entirely in English. \n\n\n\nRE:VIVE Europe was designed to explore the viability of low-density territories as drivers of sustainable development\, innovation and territorial cohesion. The initiative proposes an integrated approach\, combining academic reflection\, immersion in the territory and collaborative work\, challenging participants to answer the central question: “Low-density territories and their surrounding areas: how to design the future of these territories?“ \n\n\n\nThe focus is mainly on regions associated with small towns (with less than 25\,000 inhabitants)\, which are often faced with structural challenges such as progressive depopulation\, demographic ageing\, the fragility of basic services and distance from decision-making centres. The programme argues\, however\, that these territories represent unique opportunities for alternative models of development\, where tradition can coexist with creativity and innovation. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nLanguage: English \n\n\n\nDates of physical mobility: 27 April to 1 May 2026\n\n\n\nLocation: Polytechnic University of Coimbra (Portugal)\n\n\n\nVirtual Mobility Dates: 13 and 17 April 2026\n\n\n\nNumber of ECTS: 4\n\n\n\nMaximum number of participants: UNIgreen Alliance\,  5 Students &  2 Teachers per institution  \n\n\n\n\nWho?\n\n\n\nUNIgreen Alliance Students & Teachers are required to be able to communicate fluently in English\, although no formal certification is required. \n\n\n\nSubject\n\n\n\nRE:VIVE Europe encourages participants to develop strategic and spatial proposals aligned with five main objectives: \n\n\n\n\nTerritorial revitalisation and resilience\n\n\n\nValorisation of resources\n\n\n\nIdeas for planning and public policies\n\n\n\nCreative solutions\n\n\n\nEuropean models of sustainability\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nThe programme consists of an intensive course combining classes\, workshops\, multidisciplinary teamwork\, and field activities.  \n\n\n\nThe programme also includes: \n\n\n\n\n5 lunches and 2 dinners and tasting of regional products\n\n\n\n\n\nTerritorial immersion tours\, exploring natural heritage\, biodiversity\, landscapes of high scenic value\, cultural heritage\, historic buildings\, archaeological sites\, intangible traditions and sporting activities.\n\n\n\n\nParticipation is free of charge. Accommodation is not included and is the responsibility of participants\, but accommodation suggestions will be announced shortly. \n\n\n\n\nFull programme\n\n\n\n\nHow to Apply\n\n\n\nThose interested should register using the online form. \n\n\n\n\nREGRISTRATION\n\n\n\n\nFor any questions or expressions of interest\, UNIgreen partners may contact the academic coordinator\, Ana Cruz – gri@estgoh.ipc.pt. \n\n\n\nDeadline for admission is 17 February 2026.

The programme focuses on real-life socio-environmental conflicts and aims to help students understand how environmental protection\, local community needs\, and economic interests interact and sometimes conflict with one another. Participants will work on a case study from Zalesie (near Warsaw) \, a forested area where tensions have emerged around the use of shared natural space. Through this case\, students will explore how different stakeholder groups perceive environmental problems and how dialogue and participatory approaches can help develop sustainable solutions. \n\n\n\nStudents will also take part in collaborative workshops where they analyse collected data and develop recommendations addressing the identified socio-environmental challenges. After the onsite component\, participants will continue working online to prepare a joint report and discuss their results with researchers and experts. \n\n\n\nThe programme offers students an opportunity to gain practical experience in participatory research\, stakeholder dialogue\, and interdisciplinary problem-solving\, while working in an international academic environment. By engaging with a real local case\, participants will develop skills useful for future work in environmental management\, public policy\, and community engagement \n\n\n\n\nLeaflet\n\n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nThe programme combines online collaboration with an intensive onsite learning experience.

DESCRIPTION:Topic: Microbial Biodiversity in Sustainable Agriculture \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThematic\n\n\n\nMicrobial Biodiversity in Sustainable Agriculture: “From Invisible to Indispensable: Harnessing Unexplored Microbial Biodiversity for Resilient and Sustainable Agriculture” \n\n\n\nThis summer school delves into the vital roles of environmental microbes for the Earth’s biosphere and for agriculture. \n\n\n\nThrough dynamic lectures and hands-on workshops\, the program proposes to examine the intricate interactions between microbes\, other living organisms (humans and plants)\, and their physical environment (soil). Participants will gain insights into how microbial diversity underpins key ecosystem services\, particularly those critical for human nutrition and food security\, and will also consider the adverse impacts of modern farming practices on microbial communities. The latest technical approaches for microbiomes studies\, and their functions will be covered in both lectures and practical lab sessions. \n\n\n\nIn a second part\, the lectures will be focused on bioinspired innovations in biological control and biostimulation\, two fields that are pivotal to advance the development of sustainable agriculture. \n\n\n\nThe last part of the summer school is designed to foster systems thinking\, equipping participants with the skills to address complex environmental and agricultural challenges and develop sound innovation.      \n\n\n\nLectures sessions will address the following points: \n\n\n\n\nSystems thinking as a tool to design acceptable socio-economical innovation\n\n\n\n\n\n Relationships between microbiomes and human and environmental health\n\n\n\n\n\nInteraction of microbes with plant-host\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrobes for biocontrol and biostimulation\n\n\n\n\n\nMetagenomics\n\n\n\n\n\nEcotoxicology\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nTeaching & Training Language: English\n\n\n\nType of Participants: Students\n\n\n\nLocation: SupBiotech Engineering School of Biotechnology (France)\n\n\n\nMonday – Friday: Intensive Course and Learning Activities\n\n\n\nActivity Duration: 10 Days\n\n\n\nNumber of ECTS: 4\n\n\n\nCost: €1\,450\n\n\n\n\nTargets\n\n\n\nStudents who show interest for the microbiology sector. Profile with scientific or marketing training wishing to acquire knowledge on the biology of the the intricate interactions between microbes\, other living organisms (humans and plants)\, and their physical environment (soil). \n\n\n\nObjectives\n\n\n\nYou will dive into the fascinating world of microbial diversity that keeps our planet running\, especially in everything related to our plate and food security. You will also explore how modern agriculture can disrupt these invisible little allies. The latest cutting-edge techniques for decoding the secrets of microbiomes will be revealed in theoretical courses and practical lab sessions.  \n\n\n\nProgramme\n\n\n\nIncludes: \n\n\n\n\n10 breakfast & lunches\, 1 dinner\n\n\n\n2 cultural activities\n\n\n\nAccommodation (double rooms) from July 26 to August 7\, 2026 at the Ecla Residence (2 minutes from campus)\n\n\n\nLocal transportation card.\n\n\n\n\nThe planning is subject to change.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHow to apply?\n\n\n\nApplications are reviewed on a rolling basis and places are reserved on a first come\, first served basis. Please fill out the form. \n\n\n\nEarly Bird Rate Application:  deadline: March 31\, 2026Take advantage of the current rate!
