Milan, 22 August (LaPresse) – ‘The Meeting continues its history by offering new opportunities for encounter, reflection, friendship and culture. An event that has taken root in Italian society and still aims to broaden the spaces for dialogue, to dig beyond the surface of our times to understand how individuals and communities can remain protagonists in times of change.’ These are the words of the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, in his message to the president of the Meeting for Friendship Among Peoples Foundation, Bernhard Scholz. "I would like to begin by extending my warmest greetings to the organisers, volunteers and young people committed to the success of the Meeting, as well as to those who will be attending. The title chosen for this 46th edition is: “In deserted places, we will build with new bricks”. A quote that is also a challenge, as is traditional for the days in Rimini. We need community builders. Builders of coexistence, peace, participation and solidarity. Builders of a society capable of governing change while remaining human in its foundations and civilisation," he added.
