Finance – explain the organizers – affects our lives, but we are often unaware of it.

In the four days one follows the other debates and round tables, workshops and training sessions, courses and sustainable lunches, dedicated to ethical finance in various fields, from politics to the economy of peace, from social issues to sustainability, with the aim of highlighting the existing connections with our daily lives and our time. And there is also space for training sessions for schools, designed to introduce different audiences to the fundamental concepts of finance.
