SEMINAR “GEODIVERSITY, GEOTOURISM, CLIMATE CHANGE AND HEALTH CO-BENEFITS”, 11TH –

13TH APRIL, 2014.

Held in Macedo de Cavaleiros (Northeastern Portugal), this was a Seminar on the scope of The

European Project ADAPTACLIMA II, “ADAPTACIÓN AL CAMBIO CLIMÁTICO EN EL SUDOE”,

“SOE3/P2/E477”. As collaborative initiative bringing together activities of the Biosystems

Engineering group and the EcoIntegrity group, this project lasting 30 months aims to develop

actions in the region covered by the program SUDOE, looking up the capitalization of studies in

previous projects, based on their findings and recommendations, and disseminating them among

enterprises and the general public. All information and awareness gained in this project will be

targeted at building a tool for the definition of an economic policy at European level.

This event shall focus in the sustainable use of the riverine environment contemplating effective

responses to the problems posed by climate change and promoting sustainable production

chains of natural products that provide, in addition to commercial and ecological products,

ecosystem services and public goods broader aimed at promoting quality of life and human

health. This is a good opportunity to show that Geoparks are territories of excellence in this

approach.

3rd SEMINAR ON BIOMECHANICS, HEALTH AND SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT: HEALTH CO-

BENEFITS OF CLIMATE CHANGE MITIGATION – THE ADPTACLIMA II PROJECT, 14th – 15th May,

2014.

Forum for exchanging knowledge and experience around biomechanics, components of

well-being and channels of human interaction with nature. Graduate and postgraduate students

from a variety of backgrounds will be given the opportunity to present and discuss their work

carried out in an open scientific environment.

In this 3rd edition, our special attention will be to the health co-benefits of climate change

mitigation. Mitigation and adaptation of climate change has generated several policy documents

with lifestyle recommendations that most of them are socially uncomfortable and economically

painful. However, there is current evidence and potential co-benefits of alternative practices, and

environmental strategies that minimize the effects of climate change and improve health and

well-being.
