On Tuesday 18h February, at Assaggi bookstore in Rome, the science café "Migrant researchers" will be held.

Travelling and changing the place where to work is part of the life of a researcher. Which are the most favourite destinations and why? When such a mobility exceeds a certain amount of time, it becomes migration. Our country almost exclusively deals with exiting flows and whilst our researchers may reach high level positions in other countries, in our research centers it is difficult to see scientists from abroad. Mobility must be forerun, accompanied and followed by well defined political plans. What are the research policies in Italy, in Europe and in the rest of the world? And what about the returns in terms of innovation and, more generally, of social wealth?

These topics will be debated with Sveva Avveduto, sociologist, and Maria Carolina Brandi, geographer.

Question time with Pietro Greco, science journalist.

The event will be transmitted in live streaming on Scienceonthenet and on the Forma Scienza YouTube channel.

Italy and Cuba: the right to health is a common founding principle

di Maurizio Bonati

Pubblicato il 01/07/2026

From Article 32 of the Italian Constitution to Article 72 of the Cuban Constitution, the universal right to health provides the common ground on which Italy and Cuba have built - despite profoundly different political and economic contexts - healthcare systems based on primary care, prevention, and community-based services. These models, while currently facing delays and significant challenges, invite reflection on how the protection of health remains one of the most important indicators of a country's level of civilization, social justice, and the quality of its democracy.

Article 32, paragraph 1 of the Constitution of the Italian Republic states that: health is a fundamental and collective right; the Republic guarantees access to care; the right to health cannot be transferred or ceded: it is inalienable and inalienable; it is a universal right, belonging to all, without discrimination; it is a subjective right of the individual; it is irreducible and essential.
