In this context, the contribution that the institution I chair can offer is twofold: on one hand, its long-standing experience in managing complex projects in the Balkan region and Central-Southern Europe; on the other, the recent development of research and technology infrastructures, which serve as hubs attracting both the scientific and business communities and as drivers of growth for the territories that host them<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The initiative is set within a particularly dynamic international and European framework. In 2025, UNESCO launched the first Global Dialogue on Science Diplomacy, while the Council of the European Union is discussing the adoption of a Recommendation encouraging Member States to develop a shared European Framework for Science Diplomacy.<\/p>\n<p>With this initiative, Trieste and Friuli Venezia Giulia reaffirm their role as a laboratory of international dialogue, where science becomes a driving force for peace, growth and cooperation among nations and cultures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The training course \u201cChallenges and Prospects of Science Diplomacy in Central, Eastern and South-Eastern Europe\u201d will take place in the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region from 25 to 28 November 2025.
