Funded by the Ministry of Science and Innovation, BIOCORDIAL is part of the coordinated project "Discursive Ethics and Democracy in the face of the challenges of artificial intelligence" between the Universitat Jaume and the Universitat de València. This project focuses on two functional areas of the hyperdigital society: health and democracy. Each of them has a general objective. Firstly, from a dialogical and cordial ethics, to offer a frame of reference and the corresponding ethical guidelines to orientate and adapt the principles of bioethics to the digital context, as well as to the design, application and use of artificial intelligence in bioethical contexts. Secondly, from a critical and deliberative proposal of democracy, guidelines will be proposed to address a digital transformation of democracy that recovers, guarantees and/or increases the participation of civil society in the different democratic processes (decision-making, conflict resolution, construction of public opinion, election of representatives, development of public policies, etc.) and avoids the loss of responsibility of algorithmic contexts.

This project explores the idea of justice in urban contexts. There is no consensus in the social sciences about what type of human produce a city is. Its definition cannot therefore serve as a point of departure for its moral and political appraisal. A different approach is needed. The relation between space and social agency has been a matter of contention since the emergence of urban sociology. The reflection on the city has been traditionally charged with normative and philosophical overtones as well. Philosophy was born in the ancient polis and made of it its matter of concern, for the gist of the urban has a communal dimension that cannot be reduced to a mere aggregation of individual needs. To tackle the problems involved in the redress of contemporary urban inequality and exclusion, we need to gain a spatial perspective on the idea of justice that not only accounts for the constitutive elements of the urban habitat or the distributive conflicts involved. Such approach must be guided to the same extent by the possibility of developing the human capabilities.

DITE focuses on the element of internationalisation to increase capabilities of future teachers by sensitising TE students to international perspectives. We know from the Erasmus Impact Study 2014 and various follow-up studies that mobility is not the solution if we want a large percentage of students (90%+) to be reached by internationalisation. Therefore, DITE relies on internationalisation at home (IaH) to develop a model of globalised teacher education through diverse internationalisation with a focus on students becoming teachers in upper secondary education.

This project corresponds to the Swafs call of Horizon 2020, and it will implement and validate an ethics governance system by integrating an ETHNA office into the management of six organisations from the consortium: two universities, one of which is the UJI, two centres that finance research and two Technology Parks from Spain, Norway, Estonia, Bulgaria, Austria and Portugal. The ETHNA office is backed by four tools: a code of ethics, an Ethics Committee, an ethical line of warnings and suggestions, and indicators to inform about RRI being met. So the intention is to contribute to put into practice institutional changes in EU research and innovation structures from an ethical perspective to promote and institutionalise RRI, whose basic pillars include research ethics and integrity, gender equality, open science and citizen commitment.
The Practical Ethics and Democracy research group that leads this project, led by Prof. Domingo García Marzá, contributes its experience in setting up management systems of ethics in organisations. Moreover, the UJI Rights, Gender and Effective Equality between Men and Women Group, coordinated by Prof. Santiago García Campá, contributes by generating indicators for different RRI dimensions.

In the face of the (technological) iconosphere, communication requires a greater mastery of languages, especially iconic languages. The aim of this project was to promote the audiovisual and information literacy of teachers, educators and, at the same time, students, by creating learning situations from which they could develop communication skills, learn to construct messages using different languages and, in this way, promote critical thinking and civility.

The project is an in-depth analysis of the communities of knowledge and their social actions, which have been generated from the use of new telecommunications. Central hypothesis: supported by well-known facts, is that these communities generate, today and probably to a greater extent in the future, rich and valuable knowledge, as well as social actions with effective results.
