In a context of the concept of mutualization has been a hot topic both in the public and the private sector in recent years, with companies realizing that getting together allow them to achieve greater goats that when staying alone. Thereupon, companies have begun to get together and the most common outcomes are the creation of interorganizational projects and interorganizational structures. We’ve analysed a change project through the power-interest matrix. Then, we’ve performed in depths semi-constructive interviews (N=23) of FormaForm’s management, FormaForm’s employees and representatives of key-actors to gather helpful insights in order to localize the stakeholders in the partner’s map. Thereupon, we’ve used the transformation roadmap tool to anticipate and accompany change. Twelve stakeholders have been identified. Six stakeholders localized in the high interest/high power, highlighting the importance of careful stakeholders management, and five stakeholders localized in the high interest/low power, highlighting the importance of communication. The interviews have allowed us to identify the key-actors and FormaForm’s management as zealots and the employees as zealots and influencers. They also allowed us to identify potential key strengths and weaknesses of the project and to come up with lessons learned and suggestions in various topics: preliminary preparation, communication, work delegation and corporate culture. The transformation roadmap alongside with the interviews allowed us to identify risks and internal as well as external factors influencing the project. This allowed us to suggest mitigation actions in order to increase the probabilities of success of the project.

This open access book is about the development of a common understanding of environmental citizenship. It conceptualizes and frames environmental citizenship taking an educational perspective. Organized in four complementary parts, the book first explains the political, economic and societal dimensions of the concept. Next, it examines environmental citizenship as a psychological concept with a specific focus on knowledge, values, beliefs and attitudes. It then explores environmental citizenship within the context of environmental education and education for sustainability. It elaborates responsible environmental behaviour, youth activism and education for sustainability through the lens of environmental citizenship. Finally, it discusses the concept within the context of different educational levels, such as primary and secondary education in formal and non-formal settings. Environmental citizenship is a key factor in sustainability, green and cycle economy, and low-carbon society, and an important aspect in addressing global environmental problems. It has been an influential concept in many different arenas such as economy, policy, philosophy, and organizational marketing. In the field of education, the concept could be better exploited and established, however. Education and, especially, environmental discourses in science education have a great deal to contribute to the adoption and promotion of environmental citizenship.

Industrial energy efficiency has been recognized as a major contributor, in the broader set of industrial resources, to improved sustainability and circular economy. Nevertheless, the uptake of energy efficiency measures and practices is still quite low, due to the existence of several barriers. Research has broadly discussed them, together with their drivers. More recently, many researchers have highlighted the existence of several benefits, beyond mere energy savings, stemming from the adoption of such measures, for several stakeholders involved in the value chain of energy efficiency solutions. Nevertheless, a deep understanding of the relationships between the use of the energy resource and other resources in industry, together with the most important factors for the uptake of such measures—also in light of the implications on the industrial operations—is still lacking. However, such understanding could further stimulate the adoption of solutions for improved industrial energy efficiency and sustainability.

This timely collection of expert papers draws attention to the global burden of meningitis and the challenges faced by the WHO’s roadmap to defeat meningitis by 2030. The three main goals of the meningitis roadmap are to eliminate epidemics of bacterial meningitis, reduce cases and deaths from vaccine-preventable bacterial meningitis, and reduce disability and improve quality of life after meningitis of any cause. This book includes a wide range of original research and reviews on epidemiology and vaccination of bacterial meningitis that have direct relevance to advancing the goals of the roadmap.
