Macerata Festival of the Humanities

>>> Conference website

This conference will examine the role AHSS disciplines (Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences) can play in understanding contemporary society and change (in the fields, among others, of climate, health, economics, digitalization, and technology). While improving interdisciplinary collaboration between the AHSS and STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) disciplines is an objective shared by both national and supra-national funding agencies, a genuine dialogue can only be fostered through mutual recognition of the important contribution each field can bring to addressing global challenges. This interdisciplinary conference seeks to reaffirm the centrality of the humanities subjects (including classics, ancient and modern languages, linguistics, philology, literature, philosophy, history, archaeology, anthropology, human geography, law, religion, music and art), as fundamental disciplines in themselves that need to be fostered and promoted and as framing devices through which to read society, past, present and future. The humanities offer vital tools and unique perspectives for addressing crucial issues of civic life. The humanities and the social sciences can play a central role in shaping our local and national conversations about our history, our identities and our increasingly digitalised common future.
