Integration of cognitive dynamics in the project to address the challenges of climate change.

Abstract

This study addresses the pressing need for methodological innovation in response to climate change, with a particular focus on integrating cognitive dynamics with environmental design. The study is grounded in the theories of Extended Mind and Embodied Cognition, and proposes a novel approach that transcends traditional views. This approach uses innovation diagrams to analyse and integrate the physical and social environment as active elements of the cognitive process. The systemic approach is designed to develop practical tools and frameworks for the design of resilient and sustainable urban spaces that enhance human-environment interactions. The project not only seeks to provide new methodological insights but also fosters a holistic view that incorporates ecological sustainability in architectural and urban planning, thereby better addressing global environmental challenges.
