18 de maio de 2012, 14h00, CES-Lisboa, Picoas Plaza, Rua do Viriato 13, Lj. 117/118Resumo This seminar presents and provides a space to discuss the key findings  and insights from a Canadian-European comparative study of the  integration of culture in community sustainability policy and planning  in Canada and Europe. The research built on a critical examination of  Canada's &#34;four-pillar&#34; model of community sustainability, which attempts  to integrate cultural considerations into overall local planning for  sustainability.While this Canadian policy was groundbreaking, further examinations of  overarching policy contexts and comparison with European approaches to  integrating culture into community planning were needed. This project,  involving documentary analysis, interviews, and a survey of  practitioners in Canada and Europe, aimed to identify key conceptual and  policy approaches from both Canada and Europe and to develop a more  comprehensive map of current planning practices and policies that enable  culturally sensitive sustainable community development within  multilevel governance frameworks. The research project was a partnership of the Centre for Social Studies  at the University of Coimbra, Portugal, and the Centre on Governance at  the University of Ottawa, Canada. The research was undertaken with the  support of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada.Investigadores envolvidos     Nancy Duxbury (CES),         Jo&#227;o Mascarenhas Mateus (CES),         M.
