Science cannot prevent torrential rain, but it can help reduce its consequences. During the DANA floods, 18 schools implemented actions based on scientific evidence of social impact to protect children. #Weather #DANA #Rain #ScientificEvidence #SocialImpact #Education www.mdpi.com/2071-1050/17...

Social impactability is a methodological criterion that has always been present in all dimensions of our scientific research and that led to the worldwide development of the concepts of social impact and co-creation. #socialimpact #science #CoCreation daily27.info/2026/09/27/s...

Tolkien was inspired by the Kalevala, the Finnish epic, which is comparable in cultural significance to the Odyssey and the Mahabharata. The legend of Kullervo inspired the character of Túrin Turambar. Finnish had a significant influence on the creation of the High Elves' language, Quenya.

Attributing poor PISA results to screens is a hoax. The main solution lies in the educational actions that are actually improving educational outcomes: www.hipatiapress.com/hpjournals/i...

Tania Head was elected president of the World Trade Center Survivors Network. For years, media outlets amplified her story helping turn a fabricated narrative into a publicly accepted truth. On September 11, 2001, she was in Barcelona, not in New York. daily27.info/2026/08/28/f...

The UN has decided to promote a change in the way we map the world. The Mercator projection (1569), created to facilitate navigation, distorts the relative size of territories. Equal Earth preserves their relative areas. It doesn’t change the world; it changes how we see it.

Although specific statistics on this phenomenon are not yet available, an ongoing study suggests that the decline in public trust in the media is being accelerated by media trials and by the dissemination of serious allegations presented as investigative journalism on sexual violence.

Millions of people from all walks of life have read and discussed The Odyssey. It is regrettable that many media outlets, when covering Christopher Nolan's latest film, overlook those voices while instead relying on so-called "experts" who have not even read the work itself.

Orwell described serious sport as "war minus the shooting". Perhaps this do not tell the whole story. Rather than seeing #football as the symbolic continuation of war, we might understand it as one of humanity's achievements in replacing war with dialogue. daily27.info/2026/07/12/f...

I feel astonished to see so many “experts” on Habermas publishing about books they have not read. Even having read most of the Habermas and Parsons' books, and having debated them with Merton in his home, I still feel I need to continue learning by reading and debating them.

Jürgen Habermas passed away, the author of the most relevant social theories of the late 20th century. I remember every moment of our walk and conversation about people without territory, when the FP5 Workaló proposed that the European Parliament recognize the Roma people.
