"Virtual Biodiversity" to study endangered, rare and protected plants
Description:
Through virtual reality glasses, one can learn about three protected and endangered plant species of the natural park of Cap de Creus: the herbaceous plant Sèseli del cap de Creus (Seseli farrenyi), endemic to this natural park, the spurge olive (Cneorum tricoccon) endemic to the Mediterranean basin, and blue bindweed (Convolvulus siculus), in a vulnerable situation in Catalonia.
This event is the final phase of a teaching innovation project coordinated by Sandra Saura Mas, lecturer of ecology at the Faculty of Biosciences and CREAF researcher. The project is funded by the Coordination of Training and Teaching Innovation of the Institute of Education Studies and the Training Unit of the UAB. This project has succeeded in creating three 3D models of endemic and endangered plants of the Mediterranean basin, in order to make them freely available to students to work on during subjects dealing with the relationship between humans and nature. This has been possible thanks to the collaboration with the OpenLabs of the UAB, specifically the Digital Lab.
The Virtual Biodiversity project makes it possible to find 3D models of threatened plant species free of charge on the internet. With the result of this project, more traditional formats such as 2D herbariums or collections of living organisms, normally exclusive and located in inaccessible places that sometimes imply the death of the collected plants, have been renewed. New supports and media have been created that are more attractive, closer and more effective for learning and totally respectful with the life of other living organisms.

'El Pa Nostre de Cada Dia', a play that criticizes the political and social situation around an economic crisis
Description:
‘El Pa Nostre de Cada Dia’ is a play based on the unfinished piece ‘Der brotladen’ by Bertolt Brecht.
The story relates a crisis situation in a neighborhood of any city, where a wave of widespread unemployment provokes a fierce struggle to eat, where all the characters are victims and accomplices of capitalism.
