Description du projet
Cap sur la neutralité climatique
Les océans sont confrontés à de nombreux défis, de la pollution plastique à l’élévation du niveau des mers. Il est possible de résoudre ces problèmes environnementaux en mobilisant les villes situées en zones côtières. Tel est l’objectif du projet BoSS, financé par l’UE. Ses travaux aboutiront à la mise en œuvre de démonstrateurs transformationnels dans différentes régions et écosystèmes aquatiques au Portugal, en Italie, en Suède, en Allemagne, aux Pays-Bas et en Belgique. L’objectif global est de parvenir à une transition durable et inclusive, en privilégiant l’esthétique et en travaillant avec les communautés. Les projets pilotes fourniront des exemples d’approches axées sur la mission qui auront un impact et seront mesurables. Le projet introduira un récit éco-centré à la fois cosmopolite et enraciné dans des solutions fondées sur la nature.
Objectif
"The vision of the BoSS project is to demonstrate and archive solutions for climate neutrality with a particular focus on coastal cities as an interface to healthy seas, ocean and water bodies envisioning a new triangle of sustainability, inclusion, and design focused on the most important global natural space. The BoS will offer opportunities to engage with communities for an environmentally sustainable, socially fair, and aesthetically appealing transition. Seven lighthouse demonstrators, located in four different regions and aquatic ecosystems in Portugal (estuary), Italy (lagoon and gulf), Sweden/Germany (strait / north sea / river), and the Netherlands/Belgium (delta) will showcase the transformational and uptake impact at the EU level serving as lighthouse pilots for the implementation of Horizon Europe mission objectives and showcase innovative solutions. The seven pilots will all provide tangible examples of mission-oriented approaches that are impactful, measurable, and targeted. The action plan includes the deployment of ""drops"" in all pilots designed to generate ""ripple"" effects at the local (demonstrator) level but then also at the city/region levels (demonstrating effects of scale) and at a broader level (demonstrating the replication. The BoSS, therefore, introduces an ecocentric narrative both cosmopolitan and rooted in nature-based solutions, plural, and testimonial, proposing to apply a design approach to complex socio-technical-ecological and more-than-anthropocentric problems. An agenda that moves from fixing to caring, from growth to nurture, from certainty to contingency, will enable designers, architects, and engineers to think about assemblages instead of systems and change the outcome from extinction to precarious flourishing. The design of these interactions generates the emergence of new aesthetics and, most decisively, a critical awareness of the history, contemporary, and future: designing beyond humans as a way to sustain our future."
