Mosaicoscienze 2023: Cultural and Scientific Events in Garda Hinterland

A winning bet. And in very little time. Within just one year, Mosaicoscienze – a platform for cultural events, scientific meetings, discoveries, and internationally renowned personalities, conceived by the Associazione delle Colline Moreniche del Garda – has already reached an important milestone.

The organizing committee, after successfully completing the first edition with flying colors, has managed to bring together, under a single banner, tourism operators, commercial and industrial stakeholders from the hinterland of Lake Garda, an area often marginalized from major tourist circuits but rich in natural and cultural resources.

Indeed… For these very reasons, the event, which opens tomorrow, Thursday, as a prologue (at 2 PM at the Belvedere school complex in Castiglione delle Stiviere), has carved out an interesting cultural space within the Italian landscape where science and culture go hand in hand.

Partnership and Themes

In this context, about ten towns from the Garda hinterland, which cannot and do not want to be identified solely as places “where Italy was made,” are able to showcase their extraordinary potential. All this takes place over a single weekend, in a whirlwind of initiatives and events where each participant has “the opportunity and freedom to choose their ideal path among many options.”

Mosaicoscienze this year will revolve around the theme “The Earth, Man, and Land,” focusing on the relationship between humans and the environment in our time. Problems, situations, and proposals will be examined thoroughly.

Due to space constraints, it is impossible to list all the numerous scheduled events. For detailed information, visit the website www.mosaicoscienze.com. Alternatively, you can contact infomail@mosaicoscienze.com or call 0376.893160 during office hours.

World-famous physicist Antonio Navarra will be present in Pozzolengo at the school auditorium on Saturday at 6 PM, along with Giorgio Nebbia, a professor of Ecology, who will speak Saturday at 3:30 PM in the civic hall of Cavriana.

In Medole, Eugenio Tutti and Franco Piavoli will participate at 9 PM: the former a traveler and explorer from Verona, the latter a sensitive and refined director from Pozzolengo, who has studied the hills of Morenic extensively over the years.

Finally, Massimo Polidoro, Piero Bianucci, and Tullio Regge, individuals for whom science is a life’s credo, will be present. The event also features enogastronomic spaces, photographic and artistic exhibitions extending beyond the three-day schedule of Mosaicoscienze.
