Land commodification without dispossession? The political economy of the market-oriented experiment of Rural Collective Commercial Construction Land in China KU Leuven
Rather than seeing land commodification as a taken-for-granted term to explain urban and rural changes, this thesis offers a nuanced conceptual and empirical explanation of the process of land commodification and the interaction among involved actors. Based on data collected from the fieldwork in Pidu District of Chengdu City, China, between 2017-2021, this thesis examines the socioeconomic dynamics and consequences of the market-oriented ...
Innovative Multi-Actor Collaborations as Collective Actors and Institutionalized Spaces. The Case of Food Governance Transformation in Leuven (Belgium) KU Leuven
The sustainable transformation of food systems is a particularly prolific field in which innovative multi-actor collaborations (IMACs) are being tested. Despite the growing literature on food governance and transformation of food systems, and on the principles of alternative food networks and local food strategies, little is known about how these are implemented and how multi-actor networks are coordinated and governed. Taking food as a lens, ...
The Governance Features of Social Enterprise and Social Network Activities of Collective Food Buying Groups KU Leuven
Collective food buying groups, such as community supported agriculture or self-organized citizen groups for delivery of food baskets, have emerged throughout the world as an important niche innovation for promoting more sustainable agri-food systems. These initiatives seek to bring about societal change. They do so, however, not through protest or interest-based lobbying, but by organizing a protected space for learning and experimentation with ...
Governance of collection, use and storage of RWD in the view of data protection concerns Ghent University
Collection, storage and sharing RWD raise concerns regarding the privacy, data protection and governance of access. To date, the concerns related to consent and adequate safeguards for data protection in conventional research and health care settings are being discussed in details in the literature. However, collection of RWD from individuals fuels questions regarding the applicability of the regulations for human subjects’ research and personal ...
Have land use and land cover change affected soil thickness and weathering degree in a subtropical region in Southern Brazil? Insights from applied mid-infrared spectroscopy KU Leuven
Land use and land cover changes (LUCC) can drastically alter various components of the critical zone, including soil thickness and soil chemical weathering processes. Often these studies, however, tend to focus on extreme cases, not representing what actually happens on average at larger, regional scales. Here, we evaluate the impact of LUCC on soil thickness and soil weathering degree at the regional scale, where we use soil spectroscopy to ...
3D stacked ICs using Cu TSVs and die to wafer hybrid collective bonding KU Leuven
In this paper we demonstrate functional 3D circuits obtained by a 3D Stacked IC approach using both Cu Through Silicon Vias (TSV) First and cost effective solution Die-to-Wafer Hybrid Collective bonding. The Cu TSV-First process is inserted between contact and M1. The top die is thinned down to 25μm and bonded to the landing wafer by Hybrid Bonding. Measurements and simulations of the power delay trade-offs of various 3D Ring Oscillator are ...
A framework for selecting a fit-for-purpose data collection method in land administration KU Leuven
© 2017 Elsevier Ltd The majority of the world's population do not have access to proper land administration systems to register their land and property information. The land community has come to believe that this problem is strongly related to the data collection process, where the use of highly accurate, expensive and time-consuming spatial data collection methods such as field surveying, is overemphasised. To overcome this, innovative spatial ...
Public land management in spatial realisations: research into instrumental and administrative-organisational preconditions Departement of spatial development, environment, energy, climate, green economy, animal welfare
The aim of the study is to identify instrumental, administrative and organisational preconditions (bottlenecks and success factors) in the inclusion of a public governing role in the field of land policy, and to formulate recommendations (improvement proposals). The focus of the research is twofold: the instrumental aspect and the administrative and organizational aspect (governance).
