SUMMARY:Trichilogaster: the story of a gall wasp that crossed hemispheres to control an invasive wattle
DESCRIPTION:UNIgreen’s JRC4 – Biodiversity\, Forestry\, and Agroecology Webinar Series: Episode 6 \n\n\n\nThis event\, organized within the UNIgreen JRC4 Living Lab framework\, brings together researchers\, students\, and forest practitioners to discuss. \n\n\n\nThematic\n\n\n\nTrichilogaster acaciaelongifoliae (Hymenopterae: Pteromalidae) was the first biocontrol agent intentionally introduced against an invasive alien plant in more recent times in continental Europe. This small wasp promotes the formation of galls at flower and vegetative buds of the target plant\, Acacia longifolia (Fabaceae)\, whichis one of the most widespread invasive plants along coastal areas in Portugal. The wasp was introduced in Portugal in 2015 and is now established along the coast\, from the most northern location to the most southern region. Trichilogaster acaciaelongifoliae is promoting significant reductions of seed production and vegetative growth. No galls were found on non-target species. The results so far are encouraging for the management of A. longifolia\, confirming the specificity and efficacy of the agent. \n\n\n\nWhen?\n\n\n\nOn Tuesday\, 14 April 2026\, join us for an online event\, from 14:00 to 15:00 CEST with expert speaker and engaging discussions. \n\n\n\n\nREGISTRATION\n\n\n\n\nWho should join?\n\n\n\nResearchers\, students\, forest managers\, and anyone curious about forest ecology and sustainability. \n\n\n\nSpeaker\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHélia Marchante\n\n\n\nBiologist and lecturer at the College of Agriculture\, within the Polytechnic University of Coimbra \n\n\n\n\n\nAs a biologist\, my research is centered on the ecological dynamics of invasive alien plants and classical biological control. I hold a position as a lecturer at the College of Agriculture\, within the Polytechnic University of Coimbra. I am actively involved in research activities at CERNAS (Research Centre for Natural Resources\, Environment\, and Society). Here\, my focus remains on invasive plants\, encompassing various aspects such as impact assessment\, management strategies for invaded areas\, and exploration of biological control methods\, among other topics. Beyond academia\, I engage in consultancy work\, collaborating with diverse stakeholders. My involvement extends to science communication efforts\, promoting environmental awareness\, and spearheading citizen science projects\, all with a dedicated emphasis on invasive plant species. Furthermore\, I am a co-founder of the citizen science platform\, Invasoras.pt\, which serves as a resource for facilitating public participation in the monitoring and management of invasive plant species in Portugal.

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.
