THE UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD

The MEDITERRANEAN FOUNDATION, since its creation in 1990 immediately after the fall of the Berlin Wall, has taken as one of its main objectives the establishment of the "UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD": from an intuition of Gustavo Rol.
The activities carried out over the last three decades by the Foundation - particularly in the area of the "Greater Mediterranean" - bear witness to a constant and concrete action that, precisely in these difficult times of war and pandemic, is an anchor of salvation to strengthen the spirit of peace and cooperation between peoples.
The adhesions of men and women, organisations and institutions from various countries contribute to supporting the institutional initiative by pursuing concrete objectives and effective means for the defence of the planet, respect for the fundamental rights of the human person, the coexistence of philosophies, faiths and religions, the fair distribution of goods and resources, the union of science and politics for the salvation of humanity and against all wars.

 

The Fondazione Mediterraneo and the United States of the World participated in the centenary celebrations of the Abruzzo, Lazio and Molise National Park by organising various events for this important occasion.
In particular, the conference 'Education for Sustainability: a tool for the protection of biodiversity' was attended by Secretary General Michele Capasso, Prof. Giuseppe D’Antonio, Prof. Massimo Pica Ciamarra and Ferdinando Della Gatta.
