How to compare technologies in Climate Crisis scenarios?
How can we keep communication active when the networks we use daily stop working? This was one of the questions that guided the beginning of our research in the Tridecs project. Faced with the impacts that extreme climate events can have on communication infrastructure, we wanted to identify which technologies were already being used in emergency and climate disaster situations. To do this, we began a benchmarking reference study aimed at mapping communication solutions used in different contexts around the world.

How is the identity of a project born?
Before it was named, before it had a logo, stickers, social media posts, or a hotsite, a lot happened behind the scenes in the birth of Tridecs. The construction of the project’s visual identity and communication grew out of a collective process within Nupef, involving different members of the team in an Internal Communication Workshop held in August 2025. More than thinking about “a brand,” the idea was to build a language capable of translating what the project proposes: rapid responses in climate emergency contexts, accessible technologies, resilient connectivity, and territorial engagement.

Strategies for a good interview!
At first glance, conducting an interview may seem simple: it’s “just” asking questions to an expert and writing down the answers. Done, task complete, cross it off the to-do list! But for us, nothing is “just” anything: an activity unfolds through many steps before it can be carried out. First, defining the profiles of the people to be interviewed, discussing with the team to establish the question guide, having the technical tools and basic knowledge for the conversation, deciding who will ask the questions and how many people we want to interview, among other points. Then, getting these people’s contact information and scheduling a time – and perhaps having to reschedule due to unforeseen circumstances.
