Two days filled with spiritual and cultural initiatives to celebrate the power of fraternity. Promoted by the Basilica of Saint Peter, the Fratelli Tutti Foundation, and the Be Human association, the Meeting reaches its third edition and aims at reflecting on what it means to be human today, in an era marked by conflict, loneliness, new forms of poverty, environmental crises and challenges linked to technological progress, and at proposing concrete actions.
The meeting will kick off on 12 September with 15 different thematic tables in evocative venues around the city, such as the Capitol, Palazzo Valentini, the FAO and the EU and ABI headquarters. Topics covered will include the environment and sustainability, administrators and information, economics and finance, health and childhood, education, sport and artificial intelligence, the third sector, business and training for political life. These tables are genuine laboratories for discussion and planning, offering a unique opportunity to network ideas, experiences and best practices.
The work carried out will be collected the following day by the Human Assembly, hosted in the Hall of the Horatii and Curiatii at the Capitol. The Assembly will be composed of Nobel Prize winners, representatives of international institutions, leaders of multilateral organisations, mayors of large cities, social innovators, editors of the world’s leading newspapers and protagonists of the ethical debate on artificial intelligence. The meeting will conclude on the evening of Friday 13 with “Grace for the world”, an international event in St Peter’s Square starting at 9 p.m. The event, open to the public and broadcast live on television, will feature Andrea Bocelli, Pharrell Williams with the gospel choir Voices of Fire and John Legend, as well as the Choir of the Diocese of Rome. The musical performance will be accompanied by an evocative aerial drone and lights show by Nova Sky Stories, with images inspired by the Sistine Chapel.
