 – The social dimension: embodying the third pillar of sustainable development, the social dimension is at the heart of paradoxes, contradictions and (geo)political and socio-economic conflicts, which must necessarily be called into question.

The texts collected following our call for contributions deliver initial intentions and insights to clarify the challenges of ecological transition in teaching, research and operational practices. The diversity of the contributions received testifies to an array of interdisciplinary approaches, putting the question of ecological transition at the center of the discussion within a global framework: climate change. The three general axes (urban, territorial and social dimensions) are approached in a transversal manner in the various articles reunited in this corpus.

This book is structured into three main sections, hosting a variety of themes which illustrate the issues raised by the three general axes previously mentioned.

The first section presents the educational processes at the service of ecological transition, by paying particular attention to good practices in terms of the teaching and research of the ecological challenges to be taken up by architects, town planners and landscapers. It is mainly based on teaching experiences across the ENSA (École Nationale Supérieure d’Architecture) institutions in France.
