THE FIRST DOLOMITE CONFERENCE ON THE GLOBAL GOVERNANCE OF CLIMATE CHANGE

Trento and Bolzano | 20-22 October 2022

Climate change is a complex challenge that the whole international community began to tackle only in relatively recent times. As we are realizing, though, time is running out. Effective solutions need to be found as soon as possible, and we need to think of an alternative framework/approach to discuss such a critical issue.
This is why VISION and its partners conveyed "THE DOLOMITE CONFERENCE ON THE GLOBAL GOVERNANCE OF CLIMATE CHANGE", a three-day meeting (from the 20th – 22nd October) where thirty visionary intellectuals, policy makers, entrepreneurs, managers, journalists, political and natural scientists met to discuss the matter of climate change and find innovative solutions.


The Dolomite Conference was held in the beautiful locations of Castello del Buonconsiglio (Trento) and Castel Firmiano (Bolzano).
To make this ambitious project, VISION cooperated with several partners: Bocconi University and Politecnico from Milan; Ca' Foscari university from Venice; AXA Italia as corporate partner; Autostrada del Brennero, Provincia Autonoma di Trento and Provincia Autonoma di Bolzano.


The major distinctiveness of the project was that it was meant to be a proper problem-solving place: the objective was to work as a lab where radical and yet pragmatic ideas may emerge. This is also why Vision convened a very pluri-disciplinary group of participants: we are convinced that the nature of the question of climate change requires us to go beyond the logic of purely relying on experts, and we believe in the added value of different backgrounds and points of view.
The whole conference has been articulated by problems to be solved into working groups and plenary discussions, whose conclusions were then reported by the chairs and introducers of various sessions. The entire work has been coordinated by Vision and followed a methodology that we have successfully applied to the sister cycle of conference titled “CONFERENCE ON THE FUTURE OF EUROPE” (of which Vision already organized the first two editions in Messina/Taormina and the third in Siena).

The innovative solutions emerged from the Dolomite Conference were conveyed into the DOLOMITE MANIFESTO and will be brought to the United Nations COP27, which will be held in Sharm El Sheikh from 6 – 18 November 2022.
Our plan is to make the Dolomite Conference a yearly event, so that it can be the first step of a long journey together and keep representing a lab for visionary and innovative ideas.



Vision will follow up the Conference with further initiatives with its fellow scientific, corporate and localty partners. The Dolomite Manifesto will be the starting point of the next Dolomite Conference. It will take place on the 12th, 13th and 14th October 2023, three weeks before COP 28, to be held in the United Arab Emirates.
