The project SUSTAINMEALS adopts an integrated approach to promote a large-scale, nationwide shift towards healthier and more sustainable plant-based meals, focusing both on individual consumer-level variables and shared context-based variables. It builds on the disciplinary backgrounds and previous findings of the research team that has been working on complementary approaches to the study of meat consumption/substitution and plant-based diets, behavioral change interventions in health-related topics and eating habits, and research on food policy and consumption practices with a focus on sustainability and dietary shifts.

This project investigates the influence of patient social status on pain assessment/management practices (PAMP) which rests on the ability of health-care practitioners to empathize with the experience of the pain patient. Two theoretical models are proposed and tested: social status effect and its psychosocial accounts (Model 1), and social status buffer effect models (Model 2).

The tailored information system enables to non-invasively/unobtrusively measure balance and movements as well as to improve the effectiveness of physiotherapy based on serious game and augmented reality.

É um projeto de quatro anos que irá estudar experiências europeias que promovem a saúde das comunidades e que, ao mesmo tempo, são ambientalmente sustentáveis. O movimento Re-Food, lançado na região de Lisboa, e as hortas sociais que florescem por Portugal inteiro são alguns dos casos considerados mais interessantes para serem estudados e reproduzidos noutros países. It is a four-year project that will study European experiences that promote the health of communities and at the same time are environmentally sustainable. The Re-Food movement, launched in the Lisbon area, and social gardens that bloom throughout Portugal are some of the most interesting cases considered to be studied and replicated in other countries.
