Culture and Environment: Brescia and Bergamo Capital of Culture 2023

Culture and Environment: Brescia and Bergamo Capital of Culture 2023

The two Lombard cities battered by the coronavirus unite for the recognition of the Mibact. A supported project also from other cities to "close" with this sad 2020.

They believe in it and they deserve support. Brescia and Bergamo join forces to become the Italian Capital of Culture in 2023. Profoundly tried by the coronavirus with mourning and unforgettable images that have been around the world, the two cities want to leave this sad 2020 behind. They focus on culture, history, the excellence of the territory. They have a lot in common and without any organizational limits they have taken a run for a much coveted recognition. The two mayors -Emilio Del Bono of Brescia and Giorgio Gori of Bergamo- know they have good chances between now and the proclamation. Even the first ones prove it spontaneous adhesions to their candidacy by other Statutory Auditorsthe. Once the one in Pesaro was acquired, the one in Ancona soon arrived. Two cities equally beautiful and rich in art, which in practice give up applying in three years.

Both Brescia and Bergamo they interpret the race of the Ministry headed by Dario Franceschini as an opportunity to reconnect with tourist circuits Italian and internationaliThe pandemic, a chilling chapter for the history books. Now in the field the project which according to the Aise agency has already received the yes of UBI Banca, an institution which has solid roots in this part of Lombardy and which will be the initiative's official partner. The interest of the productive and business world also keeps in mind la presence of an economy widely recognized as sustainable twigstheEurope. Yep, businesses. 

A few days before the outbreak of the epidemic, large and medium-sized companies in Bergamo such as Tenaris Dalmine, Italcementi, Radici Group, Agrigal farm, received recognition as sustainable companies at European level in an event promoted by Eco di Bergamo and ANSA. Brescia and the surrounding area with over 8 companies two years ago, on the other hand, were in sixth place for eco-sustainability in the GreenItaly Report of Unioncanere and the Symbola Foundation.

the work  is the two cities will have to prepare it will be multidisciplinary like has long been calling for applicationsking.The efforts of the cities are oriented towards the integration between cultural needs, food and wine, appeal environment, traditions. Brescia and Bergamo contain a long and extraordinary history of human values. In the years of the economic boom they were the final destination for thousands of Italians from backward areas, as well as for many immigrants in more recent times. The art, urban architecture, museums, the landscapes yes combine with duties whose produces wealth without compress ransom wishes. Not the Eldorado - mind you - but something that stimulates the organizational skills of two territories that a damned epidemic has put in crisis. The industry will certainly be ithe core of the application. Industry not "as a mere provider of economic resources, but as holder of a work culture that combines competence, innovation, creativity and cosmopolitanism" has been written. Two years is enough to win.
