The recognition of the XIV edition of LuBeC was given to the President of Acri and the Cariplo Foundation, Giuseppe Guzzetti, for:
“the commitment to the enhancement of cultural heritage, as growth of the social capital of communities”.
In the context of the Lectio Magistralis, which focuses on the role of foundations and culture as factors for the growth of social capital, President Guzzetti said: “The autonomy of the foundations must always be respected, which must not be put at the service of public authorities but must support local communities. There is a need for culture to make an important contribution to the growth of human capital. The Savings Banks and Foundations have always paid great attention to art and culture, together with services for the person. Where there is culture, there is no division and no clash; culture is social cohesion.”
