Welcome!

The 2nd edition of our residential training is postponed to Spring 2024 – but you can get inspired here (in Portuguese)!

Linking care with sustainability

This lab is designed to be a space for experimentation and co-creation. Dedicated to help restoring the balance of our planet, we want to focus on how to take care of inner and outer sustainability.

This website shall serve to accompany the emergence of a transformative learning space at NOVA School of Science and Technology, NOVA University Lisbon.

"Care is a species activity that includes everything we do to maintain, continue and repair our "world" so that we can live in as well as possible. That would include our bodies, ourselves and the environment, all of which we seek to interweave in a complex, life-sustaining web."

Joan Tronto
