  Dayana da Silva  è Senior Information Officer presso l' IFIMES Liaison di Bruxelles. Nel suo testo intitolato "  UN Ocean Conference - Small Island and Arcipelagic Nations revisiting the spirit of Belgrade of 1961  ", sottolinea una nuova geografia morale della solidarietà, radicata nella scienza, nella sovranità e nella cooperazione non allineata, sia analogica che digitale, in occasione della Terza Conferenza ONU sugli Oceani ( UNOC3 ) del 2025 a Nizza , in Francia . B etween honour and necessity is to address the 2025 UN Ocean Conference in Nice. It comes at brewing times of fragilities and re-alignments (when the new didn’t come and the old is questioned), when our global maritime community is confronting an unprecedented convergence of environmental vulnerability, geopolitical tension, and urgent developmental needs—particularly in the Global South. The oceans are not simply blue frontiers. They are connective tissues of human civilization—lifelines for nat...

  Oggi 28 giugno 2025, presso il Teatro Truncellito di Valsinni (MT), nell’ambito del concerto “Passione  lirica” verranno eseguite due composizioni inedite scritte dal maestro italoamericano Keith Goodman (pianista, direttore d’orchestra e compositore). Queste liriche per voce e pianoforte, nascono grazie ad una idea di Paola Francesca Natale , (soprano , nata a Matera e cresciuta a Valssini) che in omaggio alla sua terra ha voluto commissionare questo lavoro. I testi utilizzati sono difatti di Isabella Morra e Diego Sandoval De Castro , due grandi poeti e nobili illustri che vissero a Valssini e dintorni durante il rinascimento, conducendo una vita tormentata,  coinvolti in storie di passioni ed intrighi politici. Isabella Morra visse subendo la prepotenza dei fratelli, segregata nel proprio castello dove si dedicò  alla sua produzione letteraria. La sua breve vita si concluse con il suo assassinio per mano degli stessi fratelli a causa di una presunta relazion...

  The Rt Hon Geoffrey Hoon ,  Former UK Secretary of State for Defence I t’s a privilege to be here[ 2 ] with defense professionals, technologists, scholars, and strategic thinkers—each committed to shaping a secure and resilient global future. I extend my sincere thanks to Professor  Anis H. Bajrektarevic , to IFIMES, and to the Global Academy for the Geo-Politico-Technological Futures for organizing this vital series of discussion on artificial intelligence and robotics—topics that increasingly defines the trajectory of our global civilisation: the understanding—and the implications—of Artificial Intelligence. Having spent the better part of my career immersed in questions of national defence, strategy, and governance, I have often been confronted with new technologies that force us to recalibrate both our expectations and our responsibilities. From the Cold War's nuclear stand-off to today’s digital battlefield, each generation faces its own version of transformative r...

  I n the contemporary era, energy has become one of the primary drivers shaping international politics and power relations among nations. The Eurasian region, with its vast reserves of natural gas in Central Asia and Europe's growing demand for secure energy supplies, has transformed into a significant geopolitical battleground. As numerous authors have already stated in their writings on the topic for the International Institute IFIMES, energy transit projects such as pipelines hold a central strategic position. Among these, the Trans-Caspian Pipeline project stands out as a strategic initiative aiming to meet this demand and create a new route for transferring energy from Turkmenistan to Europe.   Background: The Trans-Caspian Pipeline T he Trans-Caspian Pipeline is – as the numerous IFIMES authors have earlier noted, and professor Anis H. Bajrektarevic elaborated in his 2020 book ‘Caspian’ – a proposed project designed to transport natural gas from Turkmenistan, across the...
