Paradigm shift for a healthy and sustainable diet in schools through the empowerment of children and adolescents. The main goal of the SchoolFood4Change project is to provide systemic solutions for a healthy and sustainable diet by empowering children and adolescents in and around schools to fight against the increase of poverty and obesity. The implementation of different innovation teaching strategies are part of the concept specifically designed for the project: "Whole School Food Approach". Some examples of these strategies are involving farmers when providing food for school menus, establishing collaborations with all the stakeholders of the [...]

Design of stabilisation and recovery technologies for metallic soil pollutants by means of native microorganisms. The BiMeSOIL project has the objective to revalue contaminated soils through a tailor-made in situ treatment design by using specialized native microorganisms in order to improve the leaching or stabilisation processes of problematic metals, such as lead, arsenic, chromium, cadmium or mercury. Soil characterization and directed biological research will lead to tailored in situ treatment processes through bioremediation (biomagnification and bioaugmentation) or mixed techniques (combined biological and physicochemical). These are some objectives of the project: Soil physical characterization. Contaminant identification. Biological [...]
