Biennale Democrazia returns to Turin from March 26 to 30, 2025. It is a project of the City of Turin, realized by the Fondazione per la Cultura Torino, under the High Patronage of the President of the Republic, and supported by Intesa Sanpaolo, the Compagnia di San Paolo Foundation, and the CRT Foundation.
With the title Wars and Peace, the 9th edition of Biennale Democrazia will focus on conflict, violence, and war, in light of the ongoing threat of internal clashes in democratic societies and the current global climate of rising tensions.
Once again, the Chamber of Commerce of Turin supports this important international event dedicated to the promotion of democratic culture and actively participates in the creation of the program through Torino Social Impact.
EVENT: The Role of Journalism in the Era of the Impact Economy
Gobetti Theatre, March 28, 2025, 18:30
With Mario Calderini, Annalisa Cuzzocrea, Elisabetta Soglio.
What is the role of information in the era of the impact economy? This question led to the creation of Torino Impact Journalism in 2024, a pathway to explore how journalism can contribute to promoting change in a context where all societal actors, from institutions to businesses, are called to act to address major environmental and social challenges. Journalists and experts, both national and international, have debated this topic, starting with the analysis of pioneering realities outside of our borders. Constructive journalism or solutions journalism is based on a new approach focused on solutions, rather than the problems described in facts and stories told.
