Leaking energy externalities
Liquified natural gas (LNG) has been labelled a transitional or ‘bridge’ fuel, promising to facilitate the global energy transition. However, despite lower emissions compared to other fossil fuels, LNG's production and distribution are equally enmeshed in contentious political economies. Recently, both Mozambique and the European Union (EU) have been affected by wars with significant impacts to their energy markets. While EU members states divers…
Increased risk of squamous cell carcinoma based on solar ultraviolet radiation measurements from outdoor workers in Lisbon, Portugal
Introduction Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is one of the main causes of skin cancer, with squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) being particularly prevalent among outdoor workers due to chronic UVR exposure. Despite the increasing incidence of SCC in this group, cases remain under-reported and are not always classified as an occupational disease. Current guidelines for UVR exposure are established for a limit of 30 J/m 2 over an 8-h workday, and they…
Occupational exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation among outdoor workers in Lisbon, 2023—first results of the Meaow study
Introduction Solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) exposure is the primary external factor associated with the development of skin cancer. Accurate, valid, and reliable objective estimates of individual UVR exposure are required to quantify the risk of skin cancer in outdoor workers. Such data can be used to develop and implement policies and practices to reduce, or at least manage, UVR exposure in outdoor workers. Currently, there is a dearth of obj…
Microcosms of the Skills Ecosystem
This article reflects on a capacity-building project co-designed with two universities in northern Mozambique to strengthen partnerships in the educational sector in addressing local issues of youth unemployment and food insecurity. The project focused on building communities of practice (CoPs) around the three secondary-level schools delivering agricultural education and training with the participation of universities’ lecturers from agricultura…
The Multiple Paths of Extraction, Dispossession, and Conflict in Mozambique
When it comes to extractive processes, conflict, and peacebuilding, the case of Mozambique has recently taken center stage due to the emergence of an Islamic insurgency movement in the liquefied natural gas (LNG) project in its northern province of Cabo Delgado. This is but one part of a complex process of highly conflictual extractivist projects unfolding in the country. In this article, we argue that, beyond the specific case of LNG, there is a…
Digitally measuring solar ultraviolet radiation in outdoor workers
Introduction: The rising incidence of skin cancer over the years has made it a significant public and occupational health issue. However, skin cancer is highly preventable, mainly through reduced exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR), which can be achieved by a variety of individual and collective protective measures and interventions. The relative risk associated with different patterns of exposure to solar UVR differs for the subtypes o…
Cidades-irmãs
O objetivo geral deste trabalho é apresentar as atividades do projeto de extensão Cidades-irmãs, da Universidade Federal de Pelotas, no mapeamento das ações já realizadas sob o amparo da irmandade internacional entre os municípios de Pelotas (Brasil) e Suzu (Japão). A irmandade entre Pelotas e Suzu foi formalizada no ano de 1963 e, diante da verificada ausência de sistematização dessas ações, o projeto empreendeu um mapeamento com finalidade expl…
