Based between Verona and London, ITSS-Verona is an international, interdisciplinary, apolitical, not-for profit, cultural association dedicated to the study of international security. Our mission is to combine the best minds the world can offer to create one of the largest international networks addressing current and future security challenges - from terrorism to global warming, from cyber security to the militarisation of space, from great-power competition to heath and human security. As former UN secretary Kofi Annan once famously stated, mankind increasingly deals with “problems without passport”. Within this picture, not only are we convinced that everything is able to affect security; we strongly believe that internationalising research and debate is paramount, for these must not be solely relegated to academia. That is why ITSS-Verona unites outstanding men and women from governments, institutions, civil society, and industry, with the intent to analyse and tackle innumerable societal, economic, and geopolitical matters through innovative conferences and workshops.
