On 11th December, a meeting took place online between the directors of the Goethe Institutes in Italy and the Italian Cultural Institutes in Germany, at the invitation of Prof. Maria Carolina Foi (Director of the IIC in Berlin), Dr. Joachim Bernauer (Director of the Goethe Institut in Rome) and Dr. Christiane Liermann (Secretary-General of Villa Vigoni).
The meeting was a prelude to the resumption and deepening of contacts between the representatives of Italian and German cultural institutions. Further prospects of collaboration and exchange will be discussed at an online meeting next February as well as later on at a conference which will hopefully take place at Villa Vigoni during 2021.
