    Digital health and the importance of sentinel signals
    In an age where AI permeates every aspect of work, the concept of health must expand beyond physical integrity to include social and mental well-being. Risks such as techno-complexity (cognitive fatigue) and stress caused by opaque decision-making are real threats that can undermine human dignity. These dynamics often begin almost invisibly, for example through the unauthorized use of unvalidated tools—the so-called "Shadow AI"—which can increase anxiety and uncertainty.

    Beyond the black box: the new security governance
    AI is not a passing fad but a structural force transforming work processes and creating new risk profiles. For this reason, AI governance cannot remain confined to IT departments, nor can it be treated as a bureaucratic add-on to the Risk Assessment. What is needed is an integrated governance model that bridges the traditional silos between security, privacy, and fundamental rights.

    Citizen Science and the Quadruple Helix model: collaborating for new policies on climate adaptation
    Citizen Science (CS) is a participatory research approach that engages citizens, local communities, researchers, businesses, and public institutions in knowledge production and the co-creation of solutions to address complex societal challenges, including climate change. Within this context, the Horizon-Widera ScienceUs project, grounded in the Quadruple Helix model, sought to identify the key challenges that CS initiatives for climate adaptation must address to enhance their effectiveness across different scales.
