The contribution of coastal small and medium-sized cities to Urban and Regional Development

The contribution of coastal small and medium-sized cities to Urban and Regional Development

The contribution of coastal small and medium-sized cities to Urban and Regional Development

In the European area in general, and particularly in the Greek area, coastal cities have always played an important role in the wider regional development. In recent years, there has been a growing interest in research on small and medium-sized cities and how the economic activities of these cities contribute to urban and regional development. In response to this trend, the aim of this Student Research Hub research project is to identify and analyse the individual elements that make up the development indicators at a regional-local level, in coastal areas, within a specific period of time.

General Learning outcomes 

  • Research and collection of statistical data
  • Methodology of construction economic indicators based on the collected statistical data
  • Exploring the topic of regional development and the indicators that describe it

 

Assessment method: 

Written report/presentation of results

At the end of this Student Research Hub, the students will present their research outcome in a report. The results will be compared within the group and evaluated by the mentor.

Prerequisites for participating students: 

Undergraduate and postgraduate master students who specialise in economic or environmental studies.

Good knowledge of the English language and computers is desirable.

Thematic area: 

Urban and Regional Development

Mentor: 

Dimitrios Tsiotas

University:  

Agricultural University of Athens

Faculty/Department: 

Department of Regional & Economic Development

When we speak of ozone pollution, the conversation When we speak of ozone pollution, the conversation usually focuses on humans. 🧍

But according to scientific research, that’s just the tip of the iceberg. 😱

Ozone is invisible but very powerful: it quietly alters plant chemistry, reshapes insect communities, and affects the soil systems that feed every living creature on land. 

Impactful, right? 😉

The “problem” is that, unlike deforestation or oil spills, ozone works subtly.

New research shows how this invisible gas moves through ecosystems – from leaves to insects to the soil that sustains them. It also raises important questions for biodiversity strategies, land management, and environmental policy.

How can we manage the impact of ozone to create a better, greener future for our planet? 🤔

Today we are proud to highlight the journey of Ale Today we are proud to highlight the journey of Alexandre Camino, the first doctoral candidate to engage in a co-tutelle within the entire EU-CONEXUS Alliance. Through joint supervision between @univlarochelle 🇫🇷 and @unirostock , he has opened a new chapter in how we design and deliver doctoral education across Europe.

This is a functional example of institutional integration. By aligning supervision and academic standards across borders, we have created a degree framework that is fully embedded within the European Research Area.

Alexandre’s research in Public Management addresses critical sustainability challenges through a comparative study of municipal waste management across France, Germany, and Ireland. His work directly contributes to our core mission of advancing Smart Urban Coastal Sustainability #SmUCS through applied, transnational research.

🤝 While structural integration is a major achievement, the true value lies in the collaboration it fosters. In Alexandre’s words:

“A cotutelle is a fantastic opportunity... but beyond the academic benefits, it’s about connecting people. Seeing researchers from different countries collaborate on shared challenges - that is what the spirit of this alliance is all about.” - Alexandre Camino

We congratulate Alexandre on this achievement, which serves as a blueprint for the future of collaborative research within our Alliance.

🫨 When an earthquake strikes, every minute matters 🫨 When an earthquake strikes, every minute matters.
In densely populated urban areas, the difference between chaos and coordinated response comes down to one criterion – preparation.

Unknown to many, Bucharest is one of Europe’s most seismically vulnerable capitals. With thousands of outdated buildings, complex infrastructure, and uneven access to emergency resources, the city is an easy target for disaster. 🌆❌

Up for the challenge of turning it around, a trio of researchers from the @utcbro took this matter into their hands. Their approach builds on data analysis to suggest a clear action plan for everyone – accessible within seconds on any smartphone. 📲

And the best part is – this model is built to work for your city, too.
