From 16 to 17 September 2019 the 2019 edition of VigoniForEurope will take place, an annual forum conceived and created by Villa Vigoni in collaboration with the Italian and German Ministries of Foreign Affairs, which aims to provide a platform for discussion at European level on cultural policies.
The VigoniForEurope 2019 entitled Re-Thinking Creativity in a Changing Society, in this year's edition promoted in collaboration with Triennale Milano, questions the new meanings of creativity in today's society. Starting from the fields of design and fashion, the goal is to rediscover the value of creativity, whilst assigning it a substantial role in the ongoing debate on the future of the planet and humanity. Decisive is in fact the creative capacity of human beings to reconcile the most diverse requirements of functionality and aesthetics. In a world in which the relationship between man and nature seems irremediably corrupt, it is the man's task to find new ways that lead to a better balance of sustainable development in space and time. To prevent planet Earth from paying a very high price in terms of habitability in the near future, it is therefore necessary to rethink paths that put sustainability at the centre, intended as a primary responsibility towards the environment and future generations.
