At the Politecnico di Torino, a university center dedicated to social issues has been established—a research space aimed at designing new models of equitable, inclusive, and sustainable social development. It serves as a hub of innovative solutions for complex problems such as poverty, exclusion, and marginalization.
Coordinating this vast platform of social impact experiences is Cristian Campagnaro, full professor of design.
“On July 15, the university center’s steering committee was established, providing strategic insights, suggestions, and responses to specific requests, helping to guide future activities. Participating in the committee are the Chamber of commerce of Turin, represented by Simona De Giorgio, through the Committee for Social Entrepreneurship and Torino Social Impact. Other members include ISTUD Business School and Cottino Social Impact Campus (represented by Marella Caramazza), World Food Organization (Marianna Nigra), UNHCR – the UN Refugee Agency (Massimo Gnone), Fondazione Terzjus (Luigi Bobba), and Legacoop Piemonte (Dimitri Buzio).”
