VENUES
On Tuesday 14th the conference will start at Polo Carmignani, Piazza dei Cavalieri, with an Opening Ceremony and Lecture. In Piazza dei Cavalieri, you will see a large gate at the left hand side of the Scuola Normale Superiore; the gate that will bring you to the conference venue.
After the Opening we will move to Stazione Leopolda for the Welcome Cocktail (20 minutes’ walk, see map below). After walking along the ancient Borgo Stretto, Piazza Garibaldi, and Lungarno Mediceo, we will cross the Fortezza Bridge and arrive at the old Stazione Leopolda for the welcome cocktail. Later, we will walk (five minutes) to Giardino Scotto for a classical music concert comparing Vivaldi and Piazzolla.
Furthermore, at Stazione Leopolda, we’ll also have our lunches during the conference and play “Games for sustainability” after the closing ceremony.
On Wednesday 15 and Thursday 16 MORNING the conference will take place in the Department of Economics and Management (DEM, letter A in the map), while in the AFTERNOON all the sessions will be at the Polo Piagge (letter B on the map). On Friday 17th the conference will be held at the Department of Economics and Management.
