Speeches
Citizen Science Ferrara: community-based environmental monitoring for co-design mitigation actions and improve climate justice
Piergiorgio Cipriano
Piergiorgio Cipriano is a senior innovation and project management professional at Dedagroup, based in the Ferrara area. He has a background in engineering and geospatial technologies, having studied at Politecnico di Torino. His work focuses on smart cities, geospatial data, digital innovation, environmental monitoring, energy efficiency, and sustainable mobility. Over the years, he has led or contributed to several European and Italian projects involving urban data platforms, energy mapping, air-quality monitoring, and digital tools for public administrations
Toward an Artic Atlas of Unburnable Carbon: mapping Oil and Gas extraction, biodiversity and Indigenous lands through a climate justice lens
Daniele Codato
Daniele Codato is a naturalist and PhD in Human and Physical Geography. He is currently affiliated with the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering (ICEA) at the University of Padova, where he teaches and coordinates the educational activities of the Master’s Programme in GIScience and Remote Sensing.
Before his PhD research in Peru, he gained various experiences in Latin America, beginning in Ecuador in 2008 during his Master Degree thesis in Natural Sciences, where he collaborated with an Ecuadorian NGO on sustainable development initiatives in an Indigenous community of the Ecuadorian Amazon. He later worked in Peru within the framework of the Italian National Civil Service abroad, focusing on environmental issues, particularly socio-environmental conflicts in the Peruvian Amazon, through participatory mapping projects with local communities
Climate justice in warming cities: mapping ten years of climate extremes and their potential impacts in Padua (Italy)
Francesco Facchinelli
Francesco Facchinelli, PhD in Historical, Geographical, and Anthropological Studies at the University of Padua. His research focuses on the use of GIScence to support grassroots processes for climate and environmental justice, as well as agroecology as an alternative to the extractivist model. Specific case studies range from monitoring oil gas flaring and agroecological alternatives in the Ecuadorian Amazon to monitoring land consumption and heat islands in urban areas.
Equitable urban climate action through microclimatic simulations: a case study from Padua (Italy)
Susanna Patata
Democratizing Science for Urban Climate Justice: the SCIFT experience in Bologna
Officina di Scienza, Climattivismo, Immaginazione, Formazione e Tecnologia (SCIFT)
SCIFT was founded as a laboratory for investigation, experimentation and the development of tools for scientific understanding, bringing together research, data analysis, environmental justice initiatives, activism and practices aimed at bringing about radical social change. SCIFT is linked to Reclaim the Tech, expanding a network of grassroots struggles and addressing the challenges posed by technological transformation to shape new visions of the future.
Data from the Margins: intersectional Climate Justice and the role of personal narratives
Anna Berti Suman
Anna Berti Suman is an environmental sociologist, legal scholar, and Assistant Professor in the Department of Philosophy, Sociology, Education and Applied Psychology (FISSPA) at the University of Padova. Her research lies at the intersection of environmental justice, citizen science, environmental law, risk governance, and civic environmental monitoring.
She is internationally recognized for her work on “citizen sensing”, which examines how citizen-generated data and evidence can influence public policy, support environmental litigation, and strengthen democratic participation in environmental decision-making. Before joining the University of Padova, she was a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Fellow at the European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) in Ispra and conducted research at Tilburg University in the Netherlands.
The fragility of the fossil fuel system: possible pathways and initiatives to a just and equity transition
Mark Campanale
Mark Campanale is the Founder and Executive Chair of Carbon Tracker Initiative, an independent financial think tank that has played a pioneering role in highlighting the financial risks associated with climate change and the global energy transition. With a background in asset management and sustainable finance, Campanale is widely recognized for introducing the concept of “unburnable carbon”: the idea that a significant share of fossil fuel reserves cannot be exploited if global climate goals are to be met. This work helped bring the concept of stranded assets into mainstream financial and investment discussions.
