The “G. Leopardi” School of Advanced Studies is organizing the SAF / Schools of Advanced Education titled “The Digital Turn and Intercultural Societies: Ethics, Accessibility and Democracy“, which will take place in Macerata from 23 to 26 June 2025.

In Europe, two factors are intensifying their impact on social life and democratic dynamics: on the one hand, migratory phenomena, and on the other, a massive spread of digital technologies. It is worth questioning the cross-impact of these factors and their influence on the resilience of democracies, the disrupting risks and the transforming opportunities that emerge in the context of societies experiencing diversity, looking towards an inclusive and solidarity-based future.
