For making the change possible.
Colloqui internazionali di Toscana looks at three thematic clusters,
- Green transition and sustainability
- Knowledge and innovation
- Work and employment
and six main topics:
How is it possible, i.e. under what conditions and through which investments, to look at a circular economy capable of representing fertile ground for strengthening the sustainable growth and competitiveness of SMEs, particularly in the agri-food sector, renewing the tradition of attractiveness of local products and guaranteeing high quality agri-food production?
-> The table “Circular economy” answers to strategic missions of the following funds: PO FRANCIA MARITTIMO, to strengthen sustainable growth and competitiveness; FESR Towards a circular Tuscany; FEASR Bioeconomy and circularity in agricultural production systems; FEASR Increasing high quality agri-food production characterised by high health, environmental, territorial, social and cultural values; PO FRANCIA MARITTIMO Promoting the transition to a circular and resource-efficient economy.
-> The table “Energy” focuses on the following fund: PO FRANCIA MARITTIMO Towards Carbon neutrality in Tuscany.
Which initiatives and tools can help boost innovation and productivity of companies by creating new jobs in the fields of digital technologies, advanced manufacturing, nano and bio technologies? How best to support and accompany companies and SMEs in particular in this technological breakthrough? How to connect research with innovation in the territory’s productive network? What is the role of the state actor?-> The work of the ‘Investments and Digital Innovation’ table addresses the strategic missions of the following funds: FESR, Digital transition of companies; PO FRANCIA MARITTIMO, Strengthening the sustainable growth and competitiveness of SMEs and job creation also through productive investments, developing skills for smart specialisation, industrial transition and entrepreneurship.
-> The working group of the “Culture” table addresses the strategic mission of the following fund: FESR, Enhancing the role of culture in economic development, social inclusion and social innovation.Starting from European and national practices, policies and experiments, Colloqui di internazionali Toscana works for the development of policy recommendations for Regione Toscana able to promote a sustainable and just transition of our economy.
What practices, tools and institutions can we use to favour investments in human capital in order to reconnect higher education pathways with the labour market in order to guarantee quality employment capable of bridging the skill mismatch by fostering the inclusion of young people and women in the labour market? How to encourage female participation in STEM courses of study and to promote the integration of technical-scientific and socio-humanistic knowledge?
-> The working group of the “Culture” table addresses the strategic mission of the following fundS: FSE, concerning lifelong learning for enhancing workers’ skills and high-tech higher education programmes; FSE and FSC, measures to support gender equality, with a focus on the orientation of young female students towards STEM fields.Starting from European and national practices, policies and experiments, Colloqui internazionali di Toscana works for the development of policy recommendations for Regione Toscana able to promote a sustainable and just transition of our economy.
How should we rethink active labour policies and related social investment measures in order to target the investments of the digital and green transition for the creation of quality jobs, which should not increase uncertainty and help give more opportunities to young people and women?
-> The work of the ‘Quality Employment’ table responds to the strategic missions of the following funds: PO FRANCIA MARITTIMO Strengthening sustainable growth and employment generation; FSE e FSC on interventions in support of gender equality that can dismantle the gender gap in the economic and employment fields.

Call for Participants | The Truth about Economy
We need your contribution to change!
The call is addressed to young researchers, PhD students and practitioners (under 38) from all over Europe for an effective and strategic contribution to the reform objectives of the twin transitions.
We need to pool intelligence and skills in order to achieve real growth and collective well-being, focusing on the human dimension of development according to a non predatory logic towards resources and the environment, in a dynamic of cohesive growth of communities.
Tell us more about you and share with us a practice or a project that you would like to illustrate during the event.
Why participate?
Joining Colloqui internazionali di Toscana you will have the opportunity to:
- Get in touch with international and national renowned economists and experts on the twin transition;
- Consolidate your network by getting in touch with european and national research, business, practice communities, social partners and institutional
policy makers. During the event you will have
the opportunity to share concrete examples
of practices, projects in progress or just concluded, and policies that from your point of view
are measured by the challenges in which
the working tables are articulated. - Work in teams and train interpersonal
and relational skills;
Fondazione Feltrinelli will offer a reimbursement to participants up to maximum €250 to cover part/total travel costs and as well as part /total accommodation costs to taking part to the Colloqui Internazionali di Toscana.
Colloqui di Cortona since 1985
A long-term collaboration between Fondazione Feltrinelli and Tuscany Region
In 1985 Fondazione Giangiacomo Feltrinelli and Tuscany Region signed a long-term agreement aimed at hosting an international event, in which scholars and researchers had the opportunity
to question themselves, in an interdisciplinary confrontation, on the great themes of history, social theory and politics. The aim was to encourage the transfer of skills and knowledge from the world of research to the actors of the territory.
After a fruitful collaboration and 22 editions of International Talks (Colloqui di Cortona), we now want to propose a new opportunity for exchange between subjects that, from different perspectives, engage themselves daily with the questions posed by the economic and social transformations affecting territories and communities.
The thirty-year collaboration has brought to Tuscany scholars and intellectuals from all over the world and has contributed to its reputation as a welcoming and cosmopolitan place.
