Script Tales from a Rural Participatory Research Process
This article critically reflects on a participatory research and co-design process within rural energy transitions, focusing on energy citizenship in the small town of Overhalla in Norway. Based on Citizen Action Labs (CALs) - as a participatory co-design tool - this article is a retrospective methodological reflection that addresses the research question: How are expectations of a more participatory energy transition enacted in a rural community…
Pleasant walking environments enhance emotional experiences and reduce brain activation - an application of fNirs in urban studies
Promoting walking as a mode of transport is crucial to creating healthy, liveable cities. However, little research has examined how the built environment influences people's experiences, partly because of a lack of methods that directly capture this effect. Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), an optical brain imaging technique, measures neurological responses by monitoring changes in blood oxygenation. Although fNIRS has been employed …
The Interplay Between the Built Environment, Health, and Well-Being—A Scoping Review
Objective: This scoping review aims to investigate the complex interplay between the built environment, health, and well-being and to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge needed for crucial health and well-being enhancement in cities. Method: A scoping review method has been chosen using four databases. The first sample was reduced from 2819 papers to 71 papers by implementing exclusion criteria, snowballing, and direct searches to f…
Challenge-based, interdisciplinary learning for sustainability in doctoral education
Purpose Doctoral candidates possess specialized knowledge that could support sustainability transitions. Doctoral education, however, often focusses on discipline-specific topics and working methods, making it difficult to “see the bigger picture”. This summer school on wood construction gathered doctoral candidates from different fields to explore how solutions to complex sustainability issues could be found by working together across discipline…
