Dissimination Activities

Public events as a way to engage the academic research community, as well as civic society as whole. All events have been held at Luiss Guido Carli and have been open to the general public as a way to engage them in the discussion and information sharing. Moreover, as a living community, the Center has permeated the overall dissemination activities of the Luiss School of Government. Still, in the period between 2016-2019, the Center has organized the following events:
