There are between ten and twelve million Roma living in the European Union today– roughly equal to the populationof a medium-sized EU Member State, like Belgium or Greece.
Yet despite the fact that the Roma have played an integral part in European history and culture for over seven centuries, most of us still know very little about them. And what we think we do know is more often than not based on ignorance, prejudice and stereotypes.
This has led to a situation where millions of Roma in the EU today face extreme levels of social deprivation.

In Europe, fishing is generally quite targeted. Fishermen know what they want to catch and use the appropiate methods and techniques. Despite this, when they bring their nets in, they often find other fish and marine organisms mixed up with the target species: thus is what is called the by-catch.

La produzione di cibo nell'agricoltura moderna dipende dall'uso dei fertilizzanti a nitrogeno che inquinano l'ambiente e contribuiscono al cambiamento climatico. Le piante di legumi in simbiosi con il batterio "rhizobium" possono svilupparsi senza risorse esterne di nitrogeno mentre il batterio supporta la crescita della pianta attraverso la conversione dell'idrogeno in ammoniaca. Il meccanismo molecolare e il prospetto di questa pianificazione ecofriendly sarà presentata alla luce dei cambiamenti ... continua

One of the values of utopianism is having practically tried alternative forms of community life, experiences traced by Kristen Ghodsee in her book Everyday Utopias. What 2,000 years of wild experiments can teach us about the good life (Captain Swing, 2024): from historical projects and texts (phalansteries, religious communities...) to Danish cohousing cooperatives that share tasks and strengthen neighborhood ties, Colombian matriarchal ecovillages where residents grow all their own food, or planned microdistricts in China that ensure everything a home might need is ... continua
