The chapter demonstrates how Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) can reshape the future of wireless security and privacy. Methods like Federated Learning (FL), Deep Learning (DL), and Edge Intelligence can effectively enhance detection mechanisms, preserve privacy, and mitigate threats. The chapter also presents real-world applications and use-cases of these novelties across smart environments, healthcare, automobility, and intelligent network management. It concludes by discussing current obstacles and challenges, as well as future directions, emphasising the need for reliable, resilient, privacy preserving, and ethical AI systems, that can pave the way for entering the era of sixth generation (6G) networks.

Three pig welfare scientists, Sébastien Goumon, Heng-Lun Ko, and Irene Camerlink, paired up with Berlin-based Kazakhstani artist Lena Pozdnyakova to produce a children’s book. The book’s objective was to explain the emerging concept of Positive Animal Welfare to future generations through a young pig’s unexpected journey.

Coming up: The online version of the book will be made available in several languages.

Stronger Together. Learning from Our Forests is a book for children aged 6 to 10, which contains an introductory story and three stories dedicated to forests and their ‘inhabitants’. Through these stories, inspired by scientific research, this illustrated book invites children and their families to discover some of the invisible relationships that make forests such extraordinary places. From majestic trees to the tiny organisms living in the soil, readers will meet the many protagonists that help forests face the challenges of global change, communicate and support one another, enabling them to continue caring for our planet and for us.

The Catalogue consists of 30 examples of courses and teaching modules that integrate archives and archival materials as didactic sources. The catalogue is the result of the joint efforts of many ConnectLAA members and their colleagues. The examples serve as a source of inspiration for educators, students, and researchers in landscape architecture and related disciplines such as architecture, urban design, spatial planning, and architectural history.

In this paper we synthesise current knowledge on how global change drivers (e.g., elevated CO2, drought, heatwave, nitrogen deposition, and understudied extremes) affect forest carbon fluxes (CO2 and CH4) and resilience. We identify key knowledge gaps and discuss priorities for future research and monitoring.

Key messages from the paper:

• Forest responses to climate extremes are becoming more complex and less predictable
• Forest dynamics are shaped by interacting global change drivers, making single-driver assessments insufficient for predicting ecosystem responses
• Understanding forest resilience requires long-term observations that capture the dynamic feedbacks among ecophysiological processes, soil biogeochemistry, and disturbance regimes.

The study emerged within the framework of the European COST Action CLEANFOREST, which sees the collaboration of 34 researchers from 30 different institutions in 17 countries. 

We introduce MPIF (Material Preparation Information File), a standardized format for recording materials synthesis data for MOFs and related materials. It captures detailed experimental procedures and conditions in a structured, machine-readable format, enabling consistent reporting of synthesis workflows. This improves reproducibility, transparency, and data sharing across laboratories. By establishing a common standard for synthesis reporting, MPIF aims to transform how the MOF community records, shares, and analyzes synthesis data, enabling large-scale data-driven discovery and accelerating progress toward automated and AI-assisted materials research.

Created within COST Action BeSafeBeeHoney (CA22105), this Recipe Book celebrates honey as a natural treasure and a versatile ingredient used in kitchens around the world. It brings together honey-based recipes shared by our network, alongside cultural stories that highlight how honey connects food, tradition, and sustainability.

This review highlights how in situ and operando spectroscopic and scattering techniques are advancing our understanding of reticular materials such as MOFs and COFs. By probing these porous frameworks under working conditions, researchers can track active sites, reaction intermediates, and structural dynamics during catalysis, gas adsorption, and photochemical processes. The article surveys recent progress across characterization methods, discusses how these insights inform synthesis and design, and points to opportunities for developing more efficient materials for energy and environmental applications.

The book emerges from COST Action COREnet, a European research network initiated in 2021 that connects theory and practice in the field of migration and religious diversity. Over the course of several years, COREnet scholars from diverse disciplines and cultural contexts engaged in collaborative research, dialogical formats, and innovative methodologies to critically analyse how narratives influence migration experiences and to explore the role of religion and secular worldviews in these processes.

One of the most innovative aspects of the volume is its methodological emphasis on listening to the voices of migrants themselves. To facilitate this, the network developed and implemented the concept of “narrative cafés.” These dialogical spaces allowed migrants to share their personal stories in a supportive, interactive environment, thereby highlighting their lived experiences beyond abstract political or academic debates.

By bridging theoretical frameworks and practical concerns, Religious and Non-Religious Narratives on Migration offers scholars, policymakers, and practitioners critical tools for engaging migration in ways that are both academically rigorous and socially constructive.

The volume will be of particular interest to researchers in theology, sociology, philosophy, and education, as well as policymakers and organisations working in the fields of migration, integration, and interreligious dialogue.
