Since the early 2000s social media has transformed the internet into a site for the exchange of stories through the mass democratization of publishing. And yet, new forms of digital and online storytelling have at the same time compromised one of the core functions of storytelling, namely its social aspect, the ability to build community when two or more people share stories in the same space, at the same time, breathing the same air. Somewhat ironically the advent of social media may have broadened the audience for any one person’s storytelling, whilst diminishing the social intimacy of the storytelling experience. As part of its research work into storytelling as a means of engaging people in the public debate around environment, the Storytelling Academy at Loughborough University has been developing new forms and processes of digital storytelling to promote wider engagement and dissemination of environmentally driven personal stories. ‘The Reasons’, first staged in Cambridgeshire in 2016, was an attempt to create a live, community social event that provided a public forum for storytelling as a way of debating issues around drought and water governance in the Fens. Inspired by a re-staging of La Rasgioni in Sardinia in 2015, a traditional form of conflict resolution, whereby a ‘mock’ court provides the means for the community to publicly tell its stories to each other, ‘The Reasons’ was co-designed for the Fenland context and was performed twice in 2016. It was then further adapted for use in the Korogocho slum in Nairobi for an event to discuss the issue of waste management with members of the local community, as part of an initiative with UN Live. ‘The Reasons’ is an attempt to bring together the advantages of digital storytelling as a reflective process with the social intimacy of the live storytelling event. The result is a new form of hybrid storytelling that seeks to build community and establish co-thinking processes to build resilience to environmental change. This article reflects critically upon the development and evolution of this work over the past five years.

The last decades are the time of significant interest in the problem of witnesses and their testimonies, both in interdisciplinary discourse and practical activities and institutions. An important philosophical category of testimony, is gaining growing practical importance. New forms of collection and distribution of testimonies, significant increase of their quantity and release to the public discussion and a group of witnesses new participants, creates some new problems requiring reflection. The growing problem of institutionalization may disrupt the natural availability of bearing witness. Connecting testimonies with the historical truth and factual knowledge may lead to devaluation of testimonies and bearing witness. Ethics admits witnesses specific authority based on the personal experience and validity of the moral evaluations; this authority may explain who can (should) to bear witness. Meanwhile, the category of trust seems to explain the witnesses selection much better. The risk of numerous manipulations of testimonies is an important problem that has a negative impact on the reception of the social reception of testimonies and the situation of witnesses. In order to adequately respond to the experiences and needs of witnesses, an atmosphere of social trust should be build.

In modern societies, the number of people who are socially isolated and experience constant feeling of loneliness is increasing. Main causes of this social isolation are associated with both inherent features of an individual and features of structures such as family and local community. An isolated person is a person who has limited number of significant others. Nevertheless, loneliness may also occur when a person is a part of a lot of social relations. The feeling of loneliness is therefore an individually experienced discomfort resulting from a subjective evaluation of the desired and the existing network of social relations. Both phenomena are threats to the welfare of individuals and at the same time are a challenge for organizations which are dealing with social policy. An analytical category which provides the diagnosis of loneliness and isolation is the social bond. The assessment of deficits associated with social bonds and can be performed measuring following criteria: quantity, quality and potency of the social bond.

As an orchestra or a rock star, archaeologists have their audience too. This paper wants to highlight an integrated approach between fieldwork, its account and its dissemination to the public in different ways, including social media. This potential integration has come to life in the 2011 excavation of the Roman mansio of Vignale (Italy) and it has been named “Excava(c)tion”. It doesn’t mean a new way of digging but another way of approaching the excavation, an approach integrated toward and with the public, both on site and on the social Web. “Excava(c)tion” conceives the site as a stage and digging as a performance, through a continuous dialogue between archaeologists and the public. Archaeologists share their work in the form of guided tours (live, theatrical-like performances), communicative diaries and videos (edited, motion-picture performances) and on a blog (www.uominiecoseavignale.it). They receive back comments and oral accounts from the local community about the main themes of common interest. “Excava(c)tion” means engagement both of archaeologists and the public in the pursuit of a global multivocality during archaeological excavation.

The essential definition of the promotion of smart regional growth is local resource, potential, exploration of operational mechanisms. That is in order to develop the understanding of local resource feasibility and the community activities. It is important to develop cross-sectoral cooperation, which is focused on non-technological, social and on the ecological innovation processes in connection with entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurship is an essential mechanism in economic activity balancing, while creating social values that encourage the local community to participate in many areas and reduce socio-economic disparities. The ‘’Traditional’’ entrepreneur whose main desire is to create a product, find their client and thus, earn money, differs from a social businessman. An entrepreneur who has chosen the social niche, firstly, solves a social problem. In Latvia, social entrepreneurship is becoming more popular. Help and consultation at this point is provided by the Latvian entrepreneurship association (LEA), which has been in operation since the year of 2015. The region of Latgale is also becoming more popular in this field. In order to evaluate social entrepreneurship feasibility and to determine factors in the region of Latgale, cross-disciplinary research has to be carried out. Moreover, research and development in this area involves the involvement of a wide variety of stakeholders: NGO (non-governmental organisation), state, business, representatives of the public.

Abstract Social isolation is one of the negative consequences associated with caregiving and is experienced by approximately 20% of Canadian family caregivers. Being in a public health and social services system, Canadian caregivers should normally turn to their local community service centres (CLSC) to access formal services and feel less isolated. However, studies have shown that satisfaction is low regarding accessibility and continuity of formal support services. In an effort to develop interventions that meet the needs of isolated senior caregivers, the purpose of this exploratory descriptive qualitative study was to identify challenges encountered in accessing and utilizing formal supports within the public health and social services system in Canada. Nineteen isolated senior caregivers participated in seven focus groups. Data analysis was performed using the Miles, Huberman, and Saldana (2014) approach. Results showed that isolated caregivers do not know where to get information about existing services within the formal system. Once services are found, waiting lists are linked to unbearable delays. Some caregivers are actually redirected to private services, if they can afford it. Isolated caregivers also criticize the unpredictability of the system as they face relentless changes of care providers, inadequate services and sometimes unwarranted cancellations or terminations. In addition, they find formal services lacking human sensitivity. Many of them come to the conclusion that formal services are not worthwhile and exclude themselves from the formal system. This research demonstrated that the health and social services system can actually contribute to the social isolation of senior caregivers longing for support.

Many archaeological researches have been conducted in Serang City, Banten Province for decades so that a significant amount of knowledge has been produced. The Public Archaeology approach, especially museums and cultural resource management, has also been applied. However, these efforts have not been maximized resulting in several problems. Particularly, since 2020, COVID-19 pandemic has affected various fields and sectors, including the cultural sectors related to the preservation and management of cultural heritage in Serang City. The efforts to prevent the transmission of COVID-19 have been carried out by implementing health protocols and large-scale social restriction policies including on the sites and museums. The pandemic along with its uncertainty opens the potential for some problems to increasingly influence the social and political aspects; for instance, the income of the local community has decreased. Thus, a new approach known as Rediscovering Archaeology is needed to reduce the existing problems. This approach is carried out by conducting a research followed by a community service involving multidisciplinary knowledge and several related parties or Penta Helix. The methods include field observation, interviews, and ongoing mentoring. This approach has been shown to reduce the potential social and political tensions in society. This approach also convinces related parties that archaeological heritage can be a cultural capital in dealing with the pandemic and is expected to generate prosperity for the community in the future.

As a number of world museums have closed their doors for the public due to pandemic of the new Corona virus, curators are thinking of alternative ways of audience outreach: 3D virtual galleries are increasingly created, video guided tours shared, digitized collections put online. The new circumstances unquestionably bring potentials for growth, but carry numer­ous risks and inconsideration, as well. Many theoreticians argue that the cri­sis of this scale will undoubtedly fasten the digital transformation in muse­um and arts sector and consequently, in a much more wide sense influence the identity rethinking. However, the research of audience interest to virtual museum tours show there was a peak of just 3 days visiting these, massively followed by a fast decrease even the social isolation was globally still present and museum buildings still locked. Turning back to the genesis of the virtual museums, in the following paper, we will question why there is no interest to virtual museum content. Do tours answer the needs of the contemporary digital-born audience? Do these represent just a copy of settings from phys­ical galleries or use potentials and logic of the new spaces? Will museums finally transform and enter into so many times nowadays mentioned digital shift answering the need of the new, transmedia perception of audience?

Abstract The environmental range has long been neglected. Species that play crucial roles for the good functioning of the planet have their activities jeopardized by human ignorance, but the emergence of a zoonotic disease (COVID-19) in December 2019 turned attention to an atypical fact: previously uncommon animals seen in urban environment began to frequent them looking for resources, this is due to the measures of confinement, distance and social isolation adopted in order to contain the spread of the virus. In this work, public squares located in the city of Sorocaba, inlands of São Paulo, were studied, regarding the richness of species, bioindicator groups (birds, butterflies and dragonflies) in three different periods: before the social isolation system coming into effect, during and after it, to analyze whether such measures had an influence on urban biodiversity. The Sorensen and Cluster (Jaccard estimator) analytics methods, Non-metric Multidimensional Scaling (nMDS) and One-Way ANOVA variance analysis showed that, with the reclusion of the citizens, there were no significant difference in species abundance in the sampled locations during the three periods, but the lockdown was marked by the illustrious presence of a rare species butterfly (Greta oto [Hewitson 1854]), unregistered in previous surveys carried out in the municipality. It could be concluded that, although the functioning of urban ecosystems is intrinsically linked to human presence, the sudden decrease in the circulation of people and vehicles has had positive consequences for the environment richness inserted in cities.
