Autorenporträt

Jacopo Mughini Gras graduated cum laude from the Faculty of Architecture of the University 'La Sapienza' - Rome (Italy), where he obtained a license to practice. As a result of the studies undertaken and the experience acquired both in Italy and abroad, he was interested in landscape and territorial design as well as in environmental issues in terms of landscape and urban planning, delving into a number of different topics. In particular, those issues concerning the redevelopment, design and enhancement of the territory in both rural, urban, and peri-urban contexts, both in Italy, such as in Rome and Venice, but also abroad in the southeastern suburbs of Paris (Vitry-sur-Seine). He currently resides in Rome where he is collaborating with architectural firms that specialize in urban regeneration and landscape architecture, facing issues encompassing environmental sustainability, energy saving and bioarchitecture.

Letizia Pace has always had a great passion for nature and environmental issues, and for this reason she undertook studies in Geological Sciences with a specialization in Geosciences and Georesources at the University of Basilicata (Italy). Between 2018 and 2019 she also attended an advanced training course entitled ""Geomatik-Application of new technologies for environmental monitoring (air, water, soil matrices)"". In July 2021 she won a scholarship that got her to engage in the analysis of satellite data, particularly MODIS, Landsat and Sentinel 2 data, using software and platforms such as QGIS, Hegtool, SNAP, and GEE, with the ultimate goal of studying the environmental fragility of Mediterranean landscapes, threatened by climate change and land degradation phenomena, from an environmental perspective.
