The Alma Mater Studiorum – University of Bologna is proud to convene the 12th ICAANE from 14th to 18th April 2020. We look forward to hosting you in a multidisciplinary environment pursuing interconnections (geographical and chronological as well) and inclusivity at all levels: the congress themes (for which see the First Circular) have been selected in an attempt at representing the current breadth and urgency of global challenges and research perspectives.
