Integrated Infrastructure Design Guide

Infrastructure forms the backbone of our society – from roads and railways to waterworks and ports – as critical part of vital systems for mobility, water and space. But that backbone is under strain. Ageing systems, climate change and scarce resources force us to rethink fundamentally how we design, use and value infrastructure. This Design Guide starts with one urgent question: how can we make infrastructure future-proof in a world of uncertainty? It introduces integrated approaches in which design, engineering, policy and societal value come together through a wide range of inspiring examples related to urban and regional accessibility and development, spatial quality, flood protection, and ecological restoration. The book demonstrates how infrastructure can be more than merely a functional system. It becomes a driver of societal value and prosperity, and a strategic instrument that connects quality of life, sustainability and economic development. This Design Guide offers a clear conceptual framework to understand and design infrastructure that is not only more efficient, but also more sustainable, inclusive and meaningful. Drawn from thematical insights and lessons, and applicable methods, techniques and strategies by a broad range of scientists and professionals of practice with a background architecture, urban development and design, landscape architecture, civil engineering, economics, governance or policy. A substantial and indispensable guide for designers, engineers and policymakers committed to shaping the infrastructure and the society of tomorrow.

Introduction to data management as part of Open Science

Data management is part of the research cycle. It is crucial to think about it in the design phase of any experiment. This self-study module gives you hands on advice on what to do (and what NOT) with research data. It is not about (statistical) data analysis. This self-study module helps students get familiar with setting up their data management plan. As it’s an introduction to this topic, it is for students at beginner level. After completing this self-study module, you should be able to answer the following questions: What do I store? Where do I store? How can others understand what I stored? Why should I care?

Workshop Recognition and Rewards

The interactive workshop Recognition and Rewards focuses on the impact of recognition and rewards on the choices made within research regarding Open Science principles. It is notable that, in the current system, Open Science-related tasks receive less recognition and appreciation than 'traditional' research tasks. The workshop demonstrates how the societal impact of research can change through a cultural shift regarding recognition and rewards for Open Science tasks.

Thirst for Justice: The International Court of Justice

This textbook goes beyond a straightforward account of the International Court of Justice. At its heart lies a deeper question: does the work of the ICJ retain meaningful relevance for the world community, and if so, does it do so despite the emerging dynamics of a multipolar world order, or perhaps precisely because of them? To answer that question, the book takes a deliberately judicial approach. The bulk of its pages are devoted to the close examination of some of the most significant cases in the Court’s entire history, including those of its predecessor, the Permanent Court of International Justice (PCIJ). In doing so, it uncovers what are often the best-kept secrets of this venerable institution: its actual judgments, and what they reveal about the evolution of international law across the decades. Three chapters structure the work around the Court’s past, present, and future. The opening chapter traces the history of the ICJ from its institutional roots, including the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) and the PCIJ, through the exceptional and often turbulent arc of the twentieth century. Written in accessible language, it introduces readers to the Court’s main functions, its composition, and its structure, offering a nuanced portrait of an institution that came of age during one of history’s most consequential periods. The cases examined in the two subsequent chapters were selected through a rigorous process involving a broad pool of experienced international lawyers. In total, fourteen cases and one Advisory Opinion are analysed, proceedings that have already shaped the international legal order and are likely to continue doing so in matters of considerable consequence. Dit leerboek gaat verder dan een rechtlijnige beschrijving van het Internationaal Gerechtshof (ICJ). Centraal staat een diepere vraag: behoudt het werk van het ICJ een wezenlijke betekenis voor de internationale gemeenschap, en zo ja, doet het dat ondanks de opkomende dynamiek van een multipolaire wereldorde, of misschien juist dankzij die dynamiek? Om die vraag te beantwoorden, kiest het boek bewust voor een rechterlijke benadering. Het grootste deel van het boek is gewijd aan een nauwgezette analyse van enkele van de belangrijkste zaken uit de volledige geschiedenis van het Hof, waaronder die van zijn voorganger, het Permanente Hof van Internationale Justitie (PCIJ). Daarbij worden de vaak best bewaarde geheimen van deze eerbiedwaardige instelling blootgelegd: haar daadwerkelijke uitspraken en wat deze onthullen over de ontwikkeling van het internationaal recht door de decennia heen. Drie hoofdstukken structureren het werk rond het verleden, het heden en de toekomst van het Hof. Het openingshoofdstuk schetst de geschiedenis van het ICJ, vanaf zijn institutionele wortels – waaronder het Permanente Hof van Arbitrage (PCA) en het PCIJ – tot aan de uitzonderlijke en vaak turbulente ontwikkeling van de twintigste eeuw. In toegankelijke taal maakt het de lezer vertrouwd met de belangrijkste taken, de samenstelling en de structuur van het Hof, en biedt het een genuanceerd beeld van een instelling die tot volle wasdom kwam tijdens een van de meest ingrijpende perioden uit de wereldgeschiedenis. De zaken die in de twee daaropvolgende hoofdstukken worden behandeld, zijn geselecteerd via een zorgvuldig proces waarbij een brede groep ervaren internationaal juristen betrokken was. In totaal worden veertien zaken en één advies (Advisory Opinion) geanalyseerd: procedures die de internationale rechtsorde reeds diepgaand hebben beïnvloed en naar verwachting ook in de toekomst richtinggevend zullen blijven voor vraagstukken van groot internationaal belang.

[ENG] Pressure cooker Transdisciplinarity – A theoretical approach

What – This pressure cooker is an introduction to the theory of the why and what transdisciplinary education. You’ll learn why transdisciplinary education can be useful and what it means. For whom – The format can be used (and adjusted) for a class of students (all levels; any group size) as well as a team of educational developers or teachers. Why – Guided training in, for instance, transdisciplinary education improves the actual working with, or teaching of, it. How long – In-class activities take under one hour. Preparation at home takes up to 40 minutes. Our practical approach (the how), which you can take after this pressure cookers takes op two hours.
