Project "Digital Territories" (Brasil)
The Digital Territories project installed “digital homes” in rural communities. Using satellite was key to provide access.
Besides access to a new pool of resourecs and information, this allowed also sharing experiences with other rural communities, a major factor in sustainable development in the rural world.
• Urban Tools - and the Rural?
There is no urban empowerment with rural disempowerment

Research "Factors of sustainability of Digital Territories" (Brasil)
Given the huge impact of the Ceará (Brasil) project "Territórios Digitais", it is important to study which are the factorsof sustainability, identifying determinants of sucesses and faillures in the experience of rural communities, with the support of local and state institutions, using a researc-and-action methodology.

The new generation of Ka-band satellites (High Throughput Satellite), present a capacity many times superior to the current satellites (C and Ku band). With the new technology, data links will have much greater capacity at a lower price compared to current available satellite data services. The reach of the new band can be amplified combining with wireless connections (Wi-Fi) as well with smaller cells from mobile telephones, bringing internet access and mobile applications to the most remote communities, and enabling new economic and civic activities and initiatives.

e-Planning embodies a new paradigm of Technology with Social Sciences
Going past the traditional “blackbox” disciplinary approach…
Social Science => Technology from a “user” point of view => Outsource technology
to Engineers
Technology => Social science from a “consultant” point of view => Outsource social study
to Social Scientists
… the new e-Planning synoptical transdisciplinary approach:
Social Scientists <=>
Develop technology with understanding of social science; and develop social science with
understanding of technology <=>

The LabTec TS e-Planning team has a rich portfolio of research and action projects, 1995-2014, around a core group initially at MIT and CITIDEP, with a sequence of partnerships with research units at different Universities, within an informal e-Planning Consortium. Those projects, and corresponding research, were very different in size, social impact and research domain.
In this section, it is provided a few examples of the know-how acquired through some of these projects and research lines in the last 10 years.
