Uma cultura de segurança comum na UE através de um programa de formação europeu para as polícias

This master dissertation is to bring a contribution to the reflection on the need to strengthen cross-border cooperation, among the various entities applying the law with a view to building a European security culture through police training. On this basis, it proposes a reflection on the new security paradigm, focused on the demanding and informed security needs by the citizen due to an increasingly transnational crime throughout the different States. This development, coupled with globalization itself, led to the definition of strategies to gear the work of the police in preventing and combating new criminal phenomena such as the European Internal Security Strategy. However, without a true safety culture, which fosters trust among the various actors and ensures a coordinated and uniform action of the police, it will not be easy to achieve the desired effectiveness in protecting the fundamental rights that underpin European integration. Against this background, attempts to explain that the implementation of a common European training program for the police (LETS) is the way forward, with a view to a more effective security in the Union, based on values that embody a genuine European security culture, coveted by all, based on an idea of governance held at different levels of intervention, European, regional and national levels.

Cultura de segurança em proteção civil

This work aims to stress the concept of a security culture in the sense that each one of us is an emergency responder, the first one to respond, and the more prepared we are, with better training and awareness, the better we will perform, this applies even to the relationship between us and the Emergency Responders. All this will lead to a better probability of surviving an accident. If there is an accident, anywhere at any time, each one of us is alone. And the bigger the accident is the longer we stay alone. There is no firefighter, no policeman, no doctor, so it is very important to be competent, in other words, knowing how to react, wanting to react and being able to react. This is a basic requirement to understand the phenomenon, to know the consequences arising from the way we act and that we have to perform according to the situation: before, during and after it occurred. In brief, let’s not make resilience be just a word, let’s make it a concept that belongs to the higher definition of the Security Culture.

Cultura Organizacional na área de Diagnóstico por Imagem - Percepção dos Coordenadores de CHLC

Para fazer face a uma nova realidade, limitada pela crise financeira e organizacional em que se encontra o Serviço Nacional de Saúde, têm surgido várias tentativas de mudança dos modelos tradicionais de organização e de gestão nas Organizações de Saúde, a fim de se obterem organizações eficazes (Ferreira, 2011). Tendo como ponto de partida a premissa dos novos desafios impostos pelo sector da saúde, a gestão da Área de Diagnóstico Por Imagem (ADPI) do Centro Hospitalar Lisboa Central (CHLC) defronta-se com a crescente necessidade de traçar estratégias de mudança organizacional, com capacidade de adaptação à realidade vigente no sistema de saúde português. Como vários autores reiteram, o passo primordial para a introdução de mudanças organizacionais, passa pela identificação do tipo de cultura organizacional existente. Partindo desta lógica definiu-se a questão de investigação para o estudo, “Qual a percepção da Coordenação da ADPI do CHLC face à cultura organizacional vigente e à considerada desejada face à mudança organizacional para tornar a organização mais eficaz?”. Na mesma lógica, definiram-se como objectivos da investigação empírica, identificar as características da cultura organizacional da ADPI do CHLC de forma a criar estratégias de mudança organizacional, reconhecer as características da cultura que influenciam a eficácia organizacional nos diferentes polos da ADPI do CHLC e comparar as percepções do coordenador e subcoordenadores da ADPI do CHLC, face à cultura organizacional vigente e à considerada desejada em função da mudança organizacional. Trata-se de um estudo exploratório e descritivo, seguindo a estratégia de estudo de caso único com uma abordagem quantitativa. Para o efeito, recorreu-se ao questionário Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) desenvolvido por Cameron & Quinn (1999), o qual se aplicou à população em estudo constituída por 14 indivíduos da coordenação da ADPI do CHLC. Os resultados demonstram que a cultura organizacional vigente na ADPI do CHLC é do tipo Clã, e que é este tipo de cultura que o coordenador e subcoordenadores consideram ideal para o futuro. Havendo diferenças significativas entre hospitais que devem ser exploradas aquando do desenho de uma intervenção de desenvolvimento organizacional.

Relatório de estágio curricular no Centro de Arbitragem Comercial da Câmara de Comércio e Indústria portuguesa

This report is the outcome of an internship that took place in Centro de Arbitragem Comercial da Câmara de Comércio e Indústria Portuguesa and its completion is an essential part of the path towards obtaining the Master’s Degree in Faculdade de Direito da Universidade Nova de Lisboa. This report has been structured in two stages – firstly, the presentation of the Centro de Arbitragem Comercial, focusing on its field of expertise, organic structure, principles and advantages. Then, the description of the activities developed within the Secretariat over the several stages of the arbitration procedure – since the reception of the arbitration requirement in institutional proceedings, terms of reference in ad hoc procedures, through the monitoring of the arbitral tribunal sessions (preliminary hearings, submission of evidence and final allegations) and the notification of the arbitration award. The second stage of this report is related to the description of the functions and powers of the President of Centro de Arbitragem Comercial. Firstly, it defines those powers by analyzing the statutes and rules of proceedings of the Centro de Arbitragem, drawing comparisons between the above mention and the rules of proceedings of others arbitral institutional centres, some of them are international references. The report assesses and describes the presidential powers, such as: configuration and composition of the arbitral tribunal (including arbitrator’s replacements, excuses and refusals); deadline extensions; determination of procedural rules and decision-making on any procedural incidents which arise before the constitution of the arbitral tribunal; definition of arbitration costs and fees; joinder of parties and consolidation of proceedings admission; and appointment of an emergency arbitrator. Lastly, this report analyzes some decisions delivered by the President in the respective institutional procedures which took place in the Centre.

O princípio da confidencialidade na mediação em matéria civil e comercial

The purpose of the following study is to analyze the relevance of the principle of confidentiality concerning mediation on civil and commercial matters developed in Portugal. We will, essentially, try to determine just how pivotal is this principle and how it affects the effectiveness of that method of alternative dispute resolution. We believe it is fundamental to understand the true extent of this principle and its goals, emphasizing the protection given to those who decide to resort to mediation and its impact on this process. For this dissertation, we have based our analysis on the interpretation of the set rules assembled by Law nr 29/2013, April 19th, while combining it with data gathered from other laws and regulations that had also addressed mediation. Furthermore, given the fact that this subject has been regulated by Directive 2008/52/EC, we deem pertinent to include references to other European mediation regulations, namely from Germany, Spain and France. With this study, we have established that, even though the Portuguese mediation law is based on a European Directive, we have determined a more restrictive regulation for the principle of confidentiality. We have concluded that the rules regarding this principle try to preserve, above all, the trust and honesty established during the course of the mediation, while restricting the possibility of using the information disclosed during these sessions on other cases. Additionally, we believe confidentiality is such a distinctive and relevant feature that its legal framework leads us to deem it as a true obstacle to the parties’ private autonomy and their power to determine how the mediation should be carried out.

Relatório de estágio curricular no Centro de Arbitragem Comercial

The main purpose of this report is to present the work developed during the curricular internship on the Commercial Arbitration Centre of the Portuguese Chamber of Commerce and Industry. It is structured in two parts. The first, in which i´ll present the CAC, its organic structure and its activities. In this part I will also show the work I´ve done during the internship, as well as i´m going to identified, and comment, the tasks performed. The second part presents a study on arbitration awards that aimed to determine the amount “split the baby awards”, that is to say those that condemn in (approximately) half of the request. In addition to these data, I collected from sentences other, such as the duration of the cases, the number of foreign persons in each process, the number of foreign arbitrators, the language of proceedings etc. What is expected with this paperwork is to be able to clarify, and make known, some aspects on Arbitration in Portugal, thus contributing to the strengthening of the role of the Arbitration and Arbitral Justice.
