Paideia Campus

Beyond #Inclusion: #IntegralEcology as the #Systemic Approach to Nurture #Longevity and Create #Legacy I was thrilled to be back on stage at the Social Enterprise Open Camp 2024 in the vibrant city of Catania (Sicily 🇮🇹) —one of the most impactful communities fostering good worldwide. This year’s theme, "Beyond Inclusion: For a Fair Economy and a Healthy Planet," brought together practitioners, visionaries, and changemakers committed to building a healthier future. My focus? #Food as the connection between ecology, health, and regeneration, central to nurturing people and the planet. On stage, I brought a piece of life with me 🌍💚 , and I got #Pollica and what the ancient knowledge of that land teaches me ... every single element and every encounter, words, values, looks, hands ruined by work. Then, every stone, every seed, and every grain of sand is taken care of by that community. I presented our #IntegralEcology model—a holistic framework inspired by #LaudatoSi’ and put it into practice at our campuses daily. This approach goes beyond theory to fuel regenerative living through #education, #innovation, and #community development initiatives. I’m passionate about promoting regenerative lifestyles, Integral Ecology, and our mantra 👉 Eat Well, Stay Well, and Save the Planet —in everything we do. Meeting young, mission-driven leaders from diverse sectors was truly inspiring; their dedication to reimagining the economy around justice, sustainability, and well-being was a profound reminder of our collective capacity for change. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you to Elena Casolari, Patrizia Canova, and Antonio Perdichizzi for their vision and dedication in organizing this transformative gathering. Together, let’s continue bridging inclusion and ecological sustainability to create a legacy that will stand the test of time! #IntegralEcology #RegenerativeEconomy #SocialImpact #EatWellStayWell Future Food Institute Paideia Campus Postilla

After another insightful World Food Day, it’s time for reflection. Kudos to EIT Food for the ongoing inspiration and for the strong push on #regenerative models—aligned with the European green leadership that has already made its mark with the #GreenDeal. And thanks to FAO for highlighting the vital role of farmers and giving a platform to the youth through the World Food Forum, where our colleagues at Future Food Institute were actively involved! We face a paradox: while we see the rise of longer-living, high-performing humans, our planet continues to suffer, raising constant cries for help. What is the point of progress if the Earth is crumbling beneath us? This week, I felt a severe lack: the absence of #politics - but the good one 😉 …the one that makes things happen! In Rome, the world of innovation was there; there were farmers, youth, Indigenous communities, chefs (never enough), businesses and startups, science, universities, journalists, and activists; it seemed to me that everyone was there, but in my opinion, missing were those who most of all should be exposed to and stimulated by these dynamics because through their decisions they can act with profound impacts on the well-being of the community: those who decide in Brussels how to distribute funds, which can transform agriculture, drive the genuine green turn and affect human health; governments, but above all, #mayors, who are called upon daily to create solutions for the development of territories, were not invited. This absence is symptomatic of a dangerous gap between those who think about innovation and those who must put it into practice. In this article, I reflect on what I’ve learned over the years, especially through our work at the Paideia Campus in #Pollica. It’s no longer enough to discuss sustainability—it's time for regeneration. We must go beyond reducing harm and start healing our planet, because it is a moral imperative. I invite you to read and join this reflection. Can we truly progress if we don’t learn to become better human beings rather than just “superhumans”? Now is the time to turn words into action. 👉 https://lnkd.in/dRbXAPfF #WorldFoodDay #EITFood #Regeneration #Sustainability #FutureFood #GreenDeal #WorldFoodForum

Over the years, I have explored and experimented with great enthusiasm the power of #LivingLabs and how these communities are innovating while navigating complexity. A journey that, by the way, once again allowed us to understand the powerful role of food the gastro-diplomacy 👉 🗞 Today I discuss this on my blog on Medium https://lnkd.in/dx69A4r8 I love seeing the challenges of our time not as obstacles but as opportunities, and running a Living Lab forces you to do this daily. "It's not just about physical spaces or methodologies, but a new way of thinking and acting collectively. An approach that allows us to co-create a more sustainable, ecological, equitable, and prosperous future for all." I talk about international projects like #cities2030, SEEDS Project, SWITCH, and our #livinglab in action in Pollica with the Paideia Campus and in Japan at #Tokyo #kyobashi. I discuss #InclusiveProsperity inspired by Paolo Venturi and #IntegralEcology because our true goal is to generate real impact, and for this, the format or methodology alone is not enough. To be truly effective and transformative, a Living Lab must have a soul and ethics. It's not just about producing technological or economic innovation, but creating shared value for the entire community. Have a great week and happy reading 😉 🇮🇹 Here the Italian version 👉 https://lnkd.in/dPpxq4HN

We’re almost there! In exactly one week, we will kick off TEDxPollica, an event that brings together stories of the land, activism, art, science, technology, food, and passion from near and far. For years, I dreamed of organizing a TEDx in Pollica, but you need the right ingredients and team to make it happen. This TEDx is pure magic, capturing the essence of the mission that drives Paideia Campus. 🤝 The Power of "Casual Collisions" Sometimes, when people meet, it’s like a collision of particles that releases incredible energy. One of these "collisions" gave birth to #TEDxPollica, the result of my connection with Eugenio Russo. Eugenio, born in 2005, is an extraordinary teammate who has brought his passion, curiosity, professionalism, and a remarkable desire to make a difference to the project. After enthusiastically participating in our #RegenerAction program, we decided to organize a Power Week together—an intensive week of co-design with a group of brilliant young people, to bring this TEDX to life. Often, behind these special encounters, there are incredible people like the legendary Tim West, who are true "serial connectors." In our case, Luca Corsolini, with his unique talent for bringing the right people together at the right time, helped ignite sparks of creativity and innovation that might otherwise never have seen the light of day. I sincerely believe in the magic of "casual collisions" and that every human connection has the potential to create something extraordinary. TEDxPollica will be the accelerator of these collisions. 🌱 The Power of Youth Young people are a creative and innovative force with the power to transform the future of humanity. We must nourish them with the best experiences and stimuli because each one of them is a mine of energy and beauty. This TEDx was envisioned and designed together with a group of young people from Rome and various regions of a proud South, and once again, they will be the protagonists of this adventure. 🌍 The Magic of Stories and Life-Changing Experiences Over these three days, we will immerse ourselves in experiences of land and sea, art and community, discovering the lands of the #MediterraneanDiet, a cradle of endless heritage and a guardian of the algorithm of longevity. It will be a special event, embodying the true spirit of Paideia! …and this time, I’m not just waiting for you in Pollica, WE are waiting for you in #Pollica!

Mancano 10 gg al nuovo #BOOTCAMP 2024 #FFI Ospiti ed esperti internazionali, di nuovo a Paideia Campus di nuovo al #LivingLab di #Pollica Stay tuned! per partecipare, contattare Future Food Institute Sara Roversi Camilla Carioli #fooddesign #foodsystemstransformation #FoodSystems #fooddesigner #foodeducation #foodinnnovation #FutureLeaders

Rubo ad Alessandro Brunello una foto della presentazione del suo libro #CambiovitaVadoalsud perche'in realta'il tramonto di Acciaroli che qui si vede gia'in tutta la sua magia e'stato il perfetto trait d'union che ha lanciato anche la presentazione de #Glialgoritmidelpotere di Davide Casaleggio . Le cose piu'belle che sono e ci sono successe: 1 sotto l'alto ...patronato di Stefano Parisi e Sara Roversi , con l'apprezzata partecipazione di Enrica Sabatini , abbiamo passato e fatto passare una gran bella serata a tanta gente 2 la Feltrinelli ha venduto un bel po'di libri 3 abbiamo dato una consistenza alle #GiornatadelMediterraneo di Comune di Pollica e Paideia Campus : prima edizione, ma non ultima. Abbiamo parlato della stessa cosa, il futuro, partendo da due punti di vista diversi. Alessandro: smettiamola di sentirci i cugini poveri dell'Europa del Nord, puntiamo a diventare i #piufighidelMediterraneo .Davide: nella #PlatformSociety le idee saranno piu'aggreganti di ogni organizzazione. Non bisogna avere paura della #IntelligenzaArtificiale #AI che, anzi, permette a chi ha una identita'forte, come Pollica e il Cilento con la #DietaMediterranea di giocare finalmente in casa,coi valori propri, e non in trasferta, coi valori di altri, le partite in ogni tipo di ...campionato. E'il bello di un mondo g-local, di quella dimensione anche qualitativa che e'la piu'grande speranza affidata alla #AI

Bellissima presentazione doppia con Davide Casaleggio e bellissimi incontri a #legiornatedelmediterraneo del Comune di Pollica ad Acciaroli! Future Food Institute Sara Roversi Enrica Sabatini Luca Corsolini Elisa Carioli

In un paesino piccolissimo nel #cilento che è il Comune di Pollica si è dato vita ad un qualcosa di strabiliante. Vedere la passione che tutti i componenti del Future Food Institute e del Paideia Campus mettono in quello che fanno è davvero commovente. Complimenti alla bravissima Giada Pignata, esperta in pedagogia teatrale che assieme a tanti altri professionisti ha poi realizzato un bellissimo momento di condivisione tra #bambini e #comunità. La sinergia Comune di Pollica/Future Food Institute è a mio avviso l’esempio perfetto di collaborazione pubblico/privato con una voglia di avere un #impatto davvero tangibile su un territorio che puó dare davvero tanto. Davvero complimenti a Sara Roversi per quello che ha creato.

#FoodSecurity #Democracy #IntegralEcology #GlobalChallenges The Hunger for Democracy: A Global Crisis of Food and Freedom As we face escalating global challenges - from food insecurity to eroding democracies - it's clear these issues are deeply interconnected. The recent NEXUS Global Summit highlighted a stark reality: our world stands at a critical juncture where human security, encompassing food access and democratic freedoms, is under threat. The numbers are staggering - 783 million people faced hunger in 2022. This isn't just a statistic; it represents millions of shattered dreams and lost potential. As Carlo Petrini, founder of the Slow Food movement, poignantly states: "There is food for everyone on this planet, but not everyone eats." This crisis of sustenance is inextricably linked to a crisis of governance. The rise of authoritarianism worldwide feeds on desperation and disillusionment. From Budapest to Rio, we witness a retreat from democratic values, fueled by false promises of simple solutions to complex problems. Yet, hope persists. The passion of young leaders at the NEXUS Summit reminds us that the antidote lies in active citizenship and moral leadership. We must redefine success, bridging the divide between elites and communities, and recognize that addressing food insecurity and bolstering democracy requires a holistic, ground-level approach. In #Pollica, we're putting these principles into action. Our work embodies the concept of "integral ecology" championed by Petrini and Pope Francis. Through initiatives like the Paideia Campus and the #MediterraneanDiet Living Lab, we're regenerating not just land, but entire social and cultural fabrics. This approach mirrors the wisdom of indigenous communities from the #Amazon to #Cilento. Their traditional knowledge and community-based stewardship offer crucial lessons in fostering resilience and sustainability. By embracing this integral approach to ecology - valuing traditional knowledge and the link between human and environmental wellbeing - we can forge a path towards a more secure, democratic, and sustainable future. As #CarloPetrini reminds us, "I believe that he who sows utopia will reap reality." We're committed to being this change, sowing seeds of a new reality where food security, democratic values, and ecological balance are lived experiences, not distant goals. The challenges are immense, but so is our determination. Join us in this journey to create tangible, community-based solutions to global problems. Together, we can cultivate not just a vision but the reality of a more just, sustainable, and nourishing world for all.

2004. In tutti i sensi, una vita fa. Eravamo in una specie di preistoria che sarebbe poi diventta storia con ritmi velocissimi, mai visti prima, mai sperimentati prima. In quell'anno #GianrobertoCasaleggio pubblicò il libro #Webergosum, un manifesto: sono grazie al web. Sono nuovo, senza limiti. 20 anni dopo, tante vite dopo, Davide Casaleggio pubblica #Glialgoritmidelpotere. Sottotitolo "Come l'intelligenza artificiale riscriverà la politica e la società, Per dirla in latino:#AIergoerit . C'è meno fiducia in un futuro che però sappiamo essere incombente. Sarò e saremo grazie alla #AI, alla #IntelligenzaArtificiale: ma chi saremo, come saremo, cosa faremo ? Sono domande, tante, aperte. Sabato 6 luglio nell'ambito delle #GiornatedelMediterraneo al Molo di Sopraflutto della Marina di Acciaroli, Comune di Pollica , modererò, per Future Food Institute, un incontro proprio con Davide, Senza pregiudizi, ci mancherebbe; piuttosto con tanta e tante curiosità, come quelle che vengono svelate ogni estate al Paideia Campus a ragazzi che arrivano da tutto il mondo. Esiste, nel Cilento, una #IntelligenzaMediterranea che è un grande patrimonio di sapere e di sapori. Non bisogna abbandonarlo e semmai arricchirlo di tecniche e di tattiche nuove. Così con l'Intelligenza Artificiale forse: difficile ostacolarla, meglio capirla se non proprio abbracciarla. Dicono che il tramonto ad Acciaroli sia uno dei più belli da vedere e da vivere, ma con Casaleggio, ispirati dal suo libro, ascoltando le domande e i suggerimenti del pubblico, cercheremo di trovare, tra storia e algoritmi, anche un'aurora.
