1261 | 475 | everyday politics of nostalgia against the enclosure of public spaces in turkey | Fırat Genç


This paper seeks to explore everyday political implications of nostalgia through a discussion on politics of public space in Turkey. Taking a cue from research on public space cultures under neoliberal urbanism, it analyses, from a sociological perspective, how nostalgia, as a collective affect, challenges market-oriented authoritarian urban imaginaries. _x000D_
Typically, nostalgia is seen as antagonistic with emancipatory politics, since nationalist or fundamentalist political currents do stimulate nostalgia for a majestic and glorious past. Notwithstanding such implications, I suggest that nostalgia also consists of completely opposite logics that might serve to overcome the shattering effects of neoliberal enclosures. Drawing from Svetlana Boym’s distinction between restorative and reflective modalities of nostalgia, I argue that place-based, everyday political subjectivities, which mobilize a reflective nostalgia for the unrealised dreams of the past, bring up the possibilities that have proved closed due to neoliberal urbanism. For, the very act of remembering and longing provide a common ground for city dwellers of varying background to navigate the tension between anonymity and familiarity. As they familiarise the public space in reference to their vulnerabilities instead of real or imagined superiorities, the acts of reclaiming public space open up a space for encounters between them. As such, reflective nostalgia subverts neoliberal enclosures on an everyday basis. _x000D_
In effect, I underscore everyday political subjectivities and unintended consequences of nostalgic imaginaries and gestures, so as to explore place-related meanings in the formation of political imaginaries. To do so, drawing on more than thirty in-depth interviews conducted with residents of rapidly changing neighbourhoods of Izmir, the largest city in Turkey’s Aegean region, in the summer of 2021, I reveal transformative potentialities of nostalgia from the vantage point of a place-based politics

1261 | | Senses of place matters for our common future | Anna Marín-Puig (1); Antònia Casellas (1)

In front of global challenges and uncertainty there is an increase recognition to prioritize more grounded and inclusive place-based approaches for the production an application of knowledge (Horlings et al., 2020), and development (Gibson-Graham, 2006).
Relational understanding of human connections to place can inform about process that enable or hinder transformations towards sustainability. Building on the emerging literature on changing senses of place in socio-ecological systems (Bousquet; et al., 2022; Quinn et al., 2019; Raymond et al., 2021), and in diverse and community economies (Roelvink,  et al., 2015), the aim of the session is to insight the role of subjectivity and local communities on how to adapt and transform in the face of global uncertainty.
We encourage contributions that address:
–        the emergence of senses of places from relational perspectives.
–        the ways in which local place meanings and attachments can facilitate or impede adaptative or transformative social process.
–        incremental and transformative capacities of place-shaping practices, stewardship capacities, place-related narratives of change, etc.
–        the role of affective and cognitive dimensions on community level-capacity building.
–        sense of place, world- and community views, and transformative learning and economies.

1261 | 422 | Caring for the park – testing a living lab approach to enable nature connectedness in order to address challenges of urban greenspace governance | Ashita Gupta; Katharine Willis

Green Infrastructure, particularly public greenspaces such as urban parks, play an important role in urban environments. Recognising the barriers to equitable access and the need for improving participation in greenspace governance in view of increasingly restricted local authority budgets and consequent challenges around greenspace provision and management, enhancing public engagement in greenspace practices and encouraging environmental stewardship can help address some of the challenges of greenspace governance (Martin et al., 2020; Mathers, Dempsey & Molin, 2015). Recent literature has referred to theories of place indicating the potential of citizen science in fostering environmentally-responsible behaviours, such as voluntary stewardship and involvement in national/local environmental policy concerns (Day et al.,2022; Haklay,2013; Toomey et al.,2020). We identify a gap in research as to whether participation in citizen science projects can enhance connections between people and place and encourage better community participation in the stewardship of parks and urban greenspaces. This research adopts a Living Lab approach to utilise the community’s local intelligence in developing digital experiments in the pilot site using a Nature Data Probe toolkit and seeks to explore its potential for enhancing nature-connectedness by revealing hidden nature. We describe an action research method working with 126 participants from a secondary school close to a large urban park in Plymouth, UK. The findings suggest a deeper awareness of the natural environment was created. Analysis of qualitative data gathered around awareness/consciousness of natural environment revealed participants were more observant of hidden nature post-intervention, with an increase in the number of participants and the specific and descriptive responses identifying nature. In summary, we discuss the implications of research outcomes as a pathway to increasing participation in greenspace governance.

1258 | 693 | What do people choose? Economic growth or environment protection: Evidence from World Values Survey Wave-7 | Vinod Kumar and Harshita Chari

The links between the economy and the environment are manifold: the environment provides resources and acts as a sink for emissions and waste from the economy. Humans are gradually understanding the impact of economic decisions on the planet’s sustainability and quality. The environmental impact of economic growth includes increased consumption of non-renewable resources, higher levels of pollution, global warming, and potential loss of environmental habitats. However, on the other side, it is not necessary that all forms of economic growth cause damage to the environment. The environmental change that can be brought is on the shoulders of the human race, making it all the more critical that we understand the perception that the population has on prioritizing between the environment and the economic growth. The study is based on the World Values Survey (WVS) Wave-7 (2019-21) was conducted in 59 countries with a minimum sample size of 1200 from each country. In the survey, two statements were put forward to people to discuss the environment and economic growth, and they were asked which of them was closer to their point of view. The study tries to assess the difference in the population’s perceptions towards the economy and environment by their socio-demographic characteristics and the level of development of the countries. A higher chance of protecting the environment is seen among the respondents from developed countries, with better education, more wealth and post materialistic values.

1258 | 721 | Disaster and its Effect on Health and Wellbeing of Older Adults: Evidence from Longitudinal Ageing Study in India (LASI) | Jitender Prasad Varsha Nagargoje Rahul Rajak TV Sekher

Disasters, whether natural or man-made, can significantly impact on health and wellbeing of older adults, especially those living in developing countries like India. Using data from LASI Wave-1 (2017-2018) with a sample of 73,396 individuals aged 45 years-and-above, this study investigates the effects of disasters on older adults’ health and wellbeing in India. The survey captured information on natural disasters (n=1,661) and man-made disasters (n=826) that affected older adults’ health in the past five years. Descriptive and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the association between disasters and health outcomes among older adults. Findings revealed that drought (42%) was the most prevalent natural disaster faced by Indians, followed by flood (24%) and cyclone (21%), while traffic accidents (65%) and building collapses (12%) were the leading man-made disasters. Older adults who experienced disasters reported higher levels of mental health problems (67%), physical disabilities (10%), functional limitations in activities of daily living (24%) and instrumental activities of daily living (48%), and lower levels of life satisfaction (33%). Additionally, older adults in rural areas (85%) were more vulnerable to the adverse effects of disasters compared to those in urban areas, likely due to limited healthcare access and infrastructure challenges. Gender disparities were also observed, with older women (55%) being more adversely affected by natural disasters, while older men (53%) were mostly affected by man-made disasters. Study underscores the need for disaster preparedness and response strategies considering needs of older adults in India. Policies for better healthcare access, social support, and disaster resilience are vital for older adults, especially in rural areas. This study, for the first time using nationally representative data, provides important evidences for informing policy and practice in disaster management and health promotion efforts.

1258 | | Disasters and Human Health | Aakriti Grover (1); Ashique V.v. (1)


Globally, the types, intensities, as well as magnitude of disasters, have increased manifold causing massive destruction, morbidity, loss of life and biodiversity. Human beings are at the helm of their surroundings for development and any disruption poses a massive threat to progress, happiness and sustainability. It is interesting to note that a newer variety of both natural and anthropogenic disasters have been introduced in the 20th century that coincides with development. Some notable examples are dam burst/failures, nuclear war, fire, air/road/rail accidents, cloud bursts, epidemics and building collapses to name a few.
Disasters have a considerable impact on human health and day-to-day functioning but quantification of the impact, in particular mortality, is very challenging. As per the WMO estimates, from 1970 to 2019, weather, climate and water hazards accounted for 50% of all disasters, 45% of all reported deaths and 74% of all reported economic losses. More than 90% of the deaths occur in developing countries. It is estimated that over 1.5 billion people were affected by disasters, including over 700,000 people losing their lives, more than 1.4 million people being injured, and approximately 23 million people made homeless in a decade from 2005 to 2015.
 
It is well-known fact that disasters cannot be avoided completely, however, with proper planning and vision the impact of disasters can be reduced or even avoided. For this, the disaster management cycle should be interpreted with respect to human health and disaster medicine

The relationship between satellite data and COVID-19 restrictions were investigated in the European Union (EU-27), taking into account physical- and socio-geographical factors. Spatially and temporally differentiated measures and lockdowns have different atmospheric impacts in different physical geographic regions and in areas with different socio-economic characteristics._x000D_
The 27 EU Member States at national, NUTS-3 regional and metropolitan level were studied and mapped in terms of Sentinel-5p nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels and changes in NO2 levels in 2019, 2020 and 2021._x000D_
Our analyses identified the main European emission zones and presented their main defining geographical characteristics, as well as the changes due to the pandemic. We found that, with the exception of some regions (typically in Eastern Europe), the severity of the restrictions did not play a relevant role in the extent of changes in the air environment, but it is clear that the measures themselves had a significant impact on the overall reduction in NO2 levels in 2020. In many regions, the reductions in the stringency of the 2021 restrictions have led to a worsening of ambient air quality, with NO2 levels rebounding above previous levels._x000D_
The research was supported by the project POST-COVID2021-29 of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.

1258 | 553 | The role of information diffusion in the control of COVID-19 pandemic | András Igari

The rapid and widespread diffusion of relevant and useful knowledge plays a key role in mitigating the effects of shocks (disasters, pandemics, wars, etc.). Despite the fact that in our globalised, interconnected world, information can spread around the globe in hours or days, there are still many factors (enablers and barriers) that influence its spread. These factors show different geographical patterns, which can affect the spread of information and thus the ability to cope with certain shocks._x000D_
The presentation will focus on the COVID-19 pandemic and the spread of information related to it. Within a few months of its outbreak, the Coronavirus had appeared in almost every part of the world but information (e.g., facts, rumours, fake news) related to that has spread faster (mainly via internet), creating an infodemic parallel to the pandemic. The aim of the presentation is to show the spatiotemporal patterns of the spread of these two phenomena (Coronavirus-pandemic and information) and their interactions. The key question is the following: how could the spread of information influence the spread of the virus and mitigate its effects?_x000D_
To answer this, I collected weekly pandemic and GoogleTrends statistics (in regional level) and different socio-economic, mobility and governance indicators from European countries. I subjected these to statistical data analysis: in addition to descriptive statistics and data visualisation, I used a multivariate spatial regression model. It can be concluded that the impact of the information diffusion in spread of the virus is clearly observable: in different ways during each epidemic wave, but it helped the control of the virus. While during the first wave it played an important role in the timing of closures, during the later waves it influenced the dissemination of other solutions (especially vaccines).

1254 | 180 | air transport brand new: experimental routes between innovation, sustainability and new geography | Cinzia Genovino, Ilaria Cova

Innovation and sustainability nowadays are established concepts in every organisation. The latest health emergency and the Ukrainian military conflict that we are resisting, have strengthened its relevance. During the early stages of the pandemic emergency, the aviation industry encountered the strongest and deepest economic crisis since it erupted. The closure of airspace one after the other has forced the airline to ground its aircraft and consequently to implement new strategies to avoid jeopardising the economic system irreversibly. Many companies have changed their business to cope with new and urgent needs and be able to reformulate their strategic segmentation to survive the market. The dramatic situation has forced the entire transport system to move to a new business model to survive the new global challenge and focus its energies on renewing the backbone of its business, accelerating the decarbonization process and also using new, green and low environmental impact energy such as hydrogen. The transport industry was already ready to face these changes. Covid-19 first and then the war endangered the aviation industry, simultaneously accelerating the innovation process to use green energy and face the ecological transition. The article, which evaluates a representative sample of airlines, aims to investigate what strategies they have implemented to convert the airline industry into a more sustainable and innovative sector and analyse the rate of progress of their transition.
