TRIESTE
A century after Abdus Salam’s birth, his vision of science as a shared human endeavour remains crucial. Together with Paolo Budinich, Salam imagined a place where scientists from across the world could meet, learn and collaborate. Since its founding in 1964, ICTP has changed the lives of thousands of researchers in the Global South. Through the testimonies of ICTP scientists and stories from the documentary “Budinich, il pirata della scienza”, the panel will explore the enduring value of global scientific cooperation and the role of ICTP in ensuring that science remains a uniting force.

TRIESTE
Physicist Paolo Budinich was the man who imagined Trieste as the ‘City of Science’ and set about building it. In the 1950s he launched the Physics Symposia that led to Trieste being chosen as the home of the ICTP. In 1978 he founded SISSA, Italy’s first doctoral school, and in 1986 the Immaginario Scientifico, Italy’s first interactive science museum – and the list goes on to this day. Budinich’s vision centred on the growth of culture as a necessary condition for bringing down borders: political ones, certainly, but above all those of the mind.
