We are pleased to welcome and host fellows, organizers and participants of theย UTA-Do African Cities Workshop.
The visit in our museum included a short guided introduction covering the history of the museum, how it came into being, and its significance as a space that reflects publicโprivate interaction, negotiation, and coexistence, as well as insights into how it operates as a private museum.
We thank @TheUrbanCenter, a hosting institution for theย UTA-Do African Cities Workshop 2026ย in Addis Ababa, in partnership with the @UTADO_Africa organizing team and Politecnico diTorino @PoliTOnews, through the #Wagon2Africa TNE project.
UTA-Do (Urban Theory AfricaโDoing) is an annual, week-long critical urban studies workshop that brings together approximatelyย 30 early-career academics, researchers, and artists. The program combines lectures, methods workshops, field engagements, and artistic interventions to collectively explore African cities through inclusive, practice-based approaches.

We will miss him very much.

New @UNDP research reveals that the world is โnot on trackโ to achieve gender equality by 2030.
Gender bias is a pervasive problem worldwide. Sadly, #Italy is no exception, even in the #Academia.
