In recent years\, a broad international debate has emerged regarding the concept of human ecology\, which includes environmental\, social\, relational\, and cultural dimensions. Human ecology examines the fundamental connection between individuals\, their environment\, and the relationships that shape them\, identifying dwelling as a form of care for the environment\, others\, and oneself.
\nThis perspective necessitates moving beyond a solely technical understanding of the environment to rediscover its anthropological\, ethical\, and spiritual dimensions. Dwelling is not merely a material or economic phenomenon\; it reflects the human capacity to form relationships\, steward nature\, and foster a more just and supportive coexistence.
\nThe conference seeks to examine\, from an interdisciplinary perspective\, human ecology as a foundational element for cultivating a culture of care. This objective aligns with the central goal of the three-year research project &ldquo\;For a Culture of Care. A Response to the Anthropological Crisis&rdquo\; (https://www.ifanthropology.org/una-cultura-della-cura-una-risposta-alla-crisi-antropologica\;https://www.pusc.it/research-project/care).
\nThe conference will feature plenary lectures by internationally recognized speakers and sessions comprising presentations selected through a Call for Abstracts.
\nSpecial emphasis will be placed on contributions addressing the following topics:
\nThose interested must send an abstract (about 300 words\, in Spanish or English) to: luca.valera@uva.es\; frusso@pusc.it by November 22\, 2025. Authors of selected abstracts will be notified by December 5\, 2025.
\nConference registration must be completed by December 28\, 2025.
The conference proceedings of will be published by a prestigious publisher (Springer/Palgrave). Certificates of participation will be issued to those interested.

\nSPANISH VERSION
\nEn los ú\;ltimos añ\;os se ha desarrollado un amplio debate internacional en torno al concepto de ecologí\;a humana\, que no se refiere ú\;nicamente a la dimensió\;n ambiental\, sino tambié\;n a la social\, relacional y cultural. Hablar de ecologí\;a humana significa abordar el ví\;nculo profundo entre el ser humano\, su entorno y las relaciones que lo constituyen\, reconociendo el habitar como una forma de cuidado: cuidado de la casa comú\;n\, cuidado del otro\, cuidado de sí\; mismo.
\nEsta perspectiva exige superar una visió\;n meramente té\;cnica del medio ambiente para redescubrir sus dimensiones antropoló\;gica\, é\;tica y espiritual. Habitar no es solamente un hecho material o econó\;mico\, sino que expresa la capacidad del ser humano de construir ví\;nculos\, de custodiar la naturaleza y de promover una convivencia má\;s justa y solidaria.
\nLa conferencia pretende explorar\, desde un enfoque interdisciplinar\, el tema de la ecologí\;a humana como nú\;cleo fundamental para elaborar una cultura del cuidado\, que constituye el objetivo central del proyecto trienal de investigació\;n &ldquo\;Por una cultura del cuidado. Una respuesta a la crisis antropoló\;gica&rdquo\; (https://www.ifanthropology.org/una-cultura-della-cura-una-risposta-alla-crisi-antropologica\;https://www.pusc.it/research-project/care).
\nLa conferencia se articulará\; en ponencias plenarias\, con profesores de relevancia internacional\, y en sesiones de comunicaciones seleccionadas a travé\;s de una Call for Abstracts.
\nSe valorará\;n especialmente las contribuciones que profundicen en los siguientes á\;mbitos:
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Habitar como cuidado del otro: perspectivas filosó\;ficas\, antropoló\;gicas y teoló\;gicas
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Ecologí\;a humana y medio ambiente: de la sostenibilidad a la responsabilidad por el otro
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Relaciones\, comunidad y proximidad: dimensiones sociales del habitar
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Té\;cnica\, ciudad y sociedad digital: nuevos desafí\;os para la ecologí\;a humana
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Vida urbana\, vida domé\;stica y convivencia civil ante los retos de la té\;cnica y lo digital
\n·\; \; \; \; \; \; Diá\;logo intercultural e interreligioso para promover el cuidado de la casa comú\;n
