Closing ceremony of VIU semester on sustainable development
On the occasion of the Venice International University (VIU) closing ceremony of the 2017 Spring Semester on Sustainable Development, VIU’s international students and local community are offered the concert/performance Emotion for Change. Conceived for the Paris COP21 by Sara Michieletto, first violin at the Venice Opera House La Fenice, the concert/performance aims at raising the awareness on Climate Change through music, and to inspire people to undertake concrete actions in their daily life. The concert is part of the VIU’s new educational path on “Art and Sustainability”, that addresses sustainable development, as one of today’s Global Challenges, by meeting different arts and artists such as musicians, performers, visual artists. VIU’s 2017 Spring Semester students come from 26 countries, from the far East to the far West of the world, under the guidance of 26 international professors selected from the 17 universities that form Venice International University.
