5th November 2026 \u2014 Researchers Romina Patricia Olivieri, Isabel Mar\u00eda L\u00f3pez Medina and Carmen \u00c1lvarez Nieto, members of the CuiDsalud research group and the Department of Nursing at the University of Ja\u00e9n (UJA), have been awarded first prize in the first edition of the ALINEADODS Awards: Committed to Sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The jury recognised the proposal led by the three UJA researchers, entitled: \u2018From knowledge to action: measuring to transform. Environmental awareness, ecological beliefs and sustainable behaviours among healthcare professionals. A sequential mixed-methods study\u2019<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

RESEARCH LEADERSHIP IN ENVIRONMENTAL AWARENESS STRATEGIES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The participation of Romina P. Olivieri, Isabel M. \u00aa L\u00f3pez Medina and Carmen \u00c1lvarez Nieto in the \u2018AlineadODS\u2019<\/a> project (an initiative promoted by Laphysan Laboratories<\/em> involving healthcare centres across Spain) focused specifically on the category: Research studies representing progress and innovation in sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The three researchers have designed and developed initiatives aimed at measuring healthcare staff\u2019s environmental awareness and at producing key materials to encourage and integrate more sustainable clinical practices into day-to-day care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sequential mixed-methods study conducted by Olivieri, L\u00f3pez Medina and \u00c1lvarez Nieto analyses the relationship between environmental awareness, beliefs and behaviours amongst healthcare professionals in three autonomous communities (Andalusia, Murcia and Catalonia).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among the main findings of the researchers\u2019 work are the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022    Favourable attitude without automatic translation: Although healthcare professionals display a positive ecological orientation, this conviction does not immediately translate into applied knowledge or sustained sustainable behaviours in their daily practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022    Identification of barriers: The authors have identified the individual and organisational factors that create this gap between \u2018knowing and acting\u2019, offering insights into how to overcome resistance in the transition towards sustainable healthcare centres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2022    Impact on global public health: The study lays the foundations for implementing training and responsible management strategies that genuinely integrate the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into healthcare services.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This first prize reaffirms the commitment and scientific impact of the work carried out by Romina Patricia Olivieri, Isabel Mar\u00eda L\u00f3pez Medina and Carmen \u00c1lvarez Nieto within the CuiDsalud group and the Department of Nursing at the University of Ja\u00e9n.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
