AGORARISK - Dialogue sur les risques et l’environnement à Estarreja
Résumé
Le projet AGORARISK propose une recherche-action destinée à favoriser le dialogue entre chercheurs, citoyens et agents de l’Etat autour des incertitudes et des risques environnementaux et sanitaires sur le Complexe Chimique d'Estarreja. Plus précisément, il vise à comprendre les conditions de possibilité de dialogue et de travail en commun entre mondes différents pour expérimenter et coproduire des outils susceptibles de réduire le clivage existant entre savoirs scientifiques et savoirs citoyens. La région d'Estarreja a fait l’objet de nombreuses études, mais des recherches récentes ont mis en évidence des lacunes importantes en matière de communication à propos des risques. Les situations de débat avec la population impliquant élus, scientifiques et agents de l’Etat sont rares. Les conséquences sont des tensions et une perte de confiance. Alors que côté scientifique, des données sont bien disponibles puisque plusieurs équipes nationales et internationales de chercheurs s’intéressent aux problèmes de contamination à Estarreja. Nous désirons œuvrer à faciliter le rapprochement des différents acteurs locaux qui vivent avec la pollution au quotidien en créant de façon expérimentale les conditions d’un dialogue sur les incertitudes et les risques de contamination. L’implication des populations est une dimension urgente dans ce contexte précis et ne peut exister qu’à travers de nouvelles formes d’organisation du débat adaptées au contexte sociohistorique. Notre projet propose une approche expérimentale participative de façon à encourager les chercheurs à travailler avec les acteurs locaux et à inciter les populations à découvrir le monde de la recherche sous un nouveau regard.

PhD in Sociology of Innovation (École Normale Supérieure des Mines de Paris) focused the socio-technical analysis of the largest dam in Portugal, the Alqueva dam (2006). She is an associate professor at ISEG/University of Lisbon and a member of CSG research centre. Her main research interest are in Technology and Society, including natural resources and public participation procedures, scientific controversies, scientific institutions and knowledge production. She currently holds the position of the director of studies of the PhD in Economic and Organizational Sociology; she also belongs to the board of the Master on Economics and Management of Science, Technology and Innovation at ISEG/University of Lisbon. Since 2018, she is a member of the Council of the University of Lisbon.
She has participated in several research projects as coordinator and researcher. The last ones are linked to environment conflicts, hydrological resources and communication and participation in environmental issues: Citizen science and ICT-based enhanced information systems for groundwater assessment, modelling and sustainable participatory management (EGroundwaters) coordenado pela Universidade Politécnica de Valência (Funded by PRIMA), 2020-2022;"Management of soils polluted by hydrocarbons and metals in the SUDOE countries" (Soiltakecare).
