DAUGHTER OF GHENGIS

SNS Talks at 65th Festival dei Popoli

As part of its Third Mission activities, the Scuola Normale Superiore has initiated a collaboration between the Political and Social Sciences Class and Festival dei Popoli, which foresees the active participation of students in the selection of three documentary films, among those presented out of competition, and in the organisation of debates with the public following each screening.

The Third Mission flanks the university's two main functions, scientific research and education, with the precise mandate of disseminating culture, knowledge and transferring research results outside the academic context, contributing to the social and cultural development of the territory. The aim of the initiative is to encourage a critical, informed, reasoned debate on topics that often generate a passing media hype, offering the point of view of scholars and scholars.
