Coraggio! Ethics and Artificial Intelligence Monday, 11 November, 2024 Six Senses Hotel - Rome Moderated by Marlis Morganti of the Hanns Seidel Foundation, the event featured Tiziana Catarci, Director of the Department of Computer, Automatic and Management Engineering. The meeting was a unique opportunity to explore the topic of artificial intelligence, with an in-depth look at its risks and benefits. Tiziana Catarci offered stimulating insights and future perspectives on ethics in the use of technology, emphasizing the need for a conscious and responsible approach. Coraggio! is a series of meetings focused on cross-cutting issues of great relevance, involving a network of women ready to confront and support each other. We want awareness of women's value and courage not to remain an isolated event, but to radiate into society as a whole, so that gender distinction becomes secondary to the individual.

1980 - 1987 The German Period After the Partenopean interlude, Secretary General Malfatti decided for him for the far more important Embassy in Bonn. Luigi Vittorio and his wife Giovanna arrived in Bonn, on January 14, 1980, by train from Frankfurt (an original choice, to say the least) with the Intercity “Germania” and the Station Chief in full uniform waiting on the platform together with the Foreign Ceremonial and the Embassy's diplomatic staff! From 1980 to 1987 Luigi Vittorio, Ambassador in Bonn, travels all over the territory with very frequent visits everywhere, and talks with all the Länder Presidents, local personalities, many Mayors, and many important cultural institutes, such as the Bertelsmann Stiftung or the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung. He frequently visits and lectures at almost all universities, where he is received with special attention especially because Herr Professor und Kollege, is the only Italian member of the Association of University Professors. He makes intensive political contacts there and also with political figures from Italy. Significant is his insertion into German politics and with frequent appearances on television and radio programs and very frequent interviews in newspapers as well as countless contributions to collected books (over a hundred) where his signature is sought after and appreciated. Indeed, he is a sought-after commentator and thus many speeches and lectures with continuous participation in the activities of cultural institutions, from Europa Union to Aspen or Koerner Stiftung or Bertelsmann Stiftung, as well as as an honored speaker in many important German institutions and press, radio and television interviews and frequent participation in talk-shows, for which he is a sought-after guest. He ensures his presence at fairs of all kinds with much appreciation from Italian exhibitors. After all, thanks to the prestige he acquired, such activity would continue even after he ceased to serve as Ambassador for a large part of the 1990s. From that period there are also numerous articles in political and scientific journals. Particular attention is paid to the communities of Italians, which he visits frequently and with personal success, especially in Wolfsburg, a city symbolic of the presence of Italian workers in Germany. He manages to establish direct contact with Italian communities no longer mediated by politicized organizations, which are considered unrepresentative. For the same reason he opposed the establishment of elected workers' committees, considering them useless, something that would find confirmation in the facts after his departure from Germany. A 'successful activity remembered even after many decades is summarized in a book of his in German, “Wenn schon denn schon,” which sold over ten thousand copies. On December 1, 1988, the book was presented in Bonn by Foreign Minister Genscher, an unusual recognition, and also cited by former Chancellors Schmidt and Kohl.

Pizza and Politics Pizza and Politics is an innovative format that aims to bring politics and current events closer to young people. Organized in collaboration with the Festival of Diplomacy and the Hanns Seidel Foundation, this project was created to engage the younger generation in an active conversation about contemporary political and social issues.

The main goal of the initiative is to offer participants the opportunity to engage with experts in the field, from various spheres of the political, diplomatic and cultural landscape. During the meetings, young people can express their ideas, ask questions, and explore topical issues in an inclusive and dynamic setting. Pizza and Politics is not just an event, but an experience that aims to stimulate critical thinking, encouraging dialogue and the active participation of young people in public life.

Logo The Logo of this Association was created by Chiara Mensa , great-granddaughter of Luigi Vittorio Ferraris and daughter of Marina Petteruti Romano, one of the Founding Members and granddaughter of the Ambassador. The acquaintance between Chiara and Luigi Vittorio, albeit brief for reasons of age, shines through in the creation of a Logo that reflects in synthesis Luigi Vittorio's love of books, read and written, and his passion for Diplomacy to which the Ambassador sought to bring young students of all backgrounds closer, in respect and defense of human rights and collaboration among peoples. The supporting structure of the Logo encloses the three letters LVF of the Ambassador's name, and develops vertically and horizontally. Vertically with the interplay of the empty and full of the characters L and V, which give a glimpse into the L the shaft of a fountain pen, which is drawn in Vittorio's V. Pair of these two vertical letters contrasted with Ferraris's horizontally unfolding F to represent the openness to others manifested by the Ambassador in his character always open to human relations. Thus we have the vertical of diplomacy supporting the horizontal of society. That is, the strength of diplomatic action, expressed through treaties and written books of which the Ambassador has often been the author and co-author, in the cooperation acting at the international level to achieve good among Peoples. The round badge inscribing the Logo is surrounded by the inscription “Association of Friends of Luigi Vittorio Ferraris,” to represent a globe, as an expression of the international character of the thought and work carried out by the Professor and so dear to him. Finally, the colors red and white to recall the family banner kept in the country villa in Vaccarile in the Marche region of Italy. Chiara Mensa Great-granddaughter of the Ambassador Luigi Vittorio Ferraris and daughter of Marina Petteruti Romano Born in Rome, she received a five-year single-cycle degree “EU Architecture” (B. arch equivalent) from the University of Rome “ La Sapienza” in 2012. After a career in several design studios in England and Australia, she founded Hyphae, an independent design consultancy focused on eco-friendly visual design with a focus towards more sustainable and ethical products, activities and businesses, in the field of web. Since 2022, Chiara has decided to redirect her career to pursuing her true passion, establishing herself as an independent artist and specializing in creating prints through linoleum etching.

1952 - 1962 Start of the Diplomatic Career He joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on February 16, 1952, and was assigned to the General Directorate (DG) of Personnel, in the Secretariat of then Minister Maurilio Coppini, who had chosen him because he knew Russian. Coppini had been Consul in Kharkov, Ukraine in the 1930s. As was the practice at the Ministry, after a year he was sent for six months “volunteering” at the Consulate General in Munich. He attends the Salzsburg Seminar for American Studies for a month. In August 1953 he returns as scheduled to the Ministry and is assigned again to DG Personnel, and then briefly to the Press Service (during the Trieste crisis) and on March 1, 1954 again to DG Personnel. As the first overseas post he obtains the direction of a Vice Consulate Newark (NJ) in the United States, where he arrives on April 23, 1955. In the fall of 1956 he is seconded for a very short time to the Representation to the United Nations (Suez and Hungary crises). In May 1957 Luigi Vittorio is transferred to Ankara where he arrives on October 1, 1957. Luigi Vittorio is able to speak and write in Turkish. On July 10, 1959, then Minister Plenipotentiary Roberto Gaja, Head of Mission in Sofia, Bulgaria, offered to go with him to Sofia as number two. And once again the ease of learning languages will enable Luigi Vittorio to read and understand Bulgarian. In March 1962, Luigi Vittorio was called back to the Ministry in Rome, and assigned once again, at his explicit request, to DG Personnel.

Our projects Our Association promotes cultural, artistic and diplomatic initiatives, activities, meetings and projects. We are in dialogue with the local area and with national and international bodies in order to spread the voice, thought and values of Luigi Vittorio Ferraris. Pizza and Politics
