EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL POLICIES FOR ENERGY TRANSITION IN THE AGRI-FOOD SECTOR
2025-09-11 15:00 - 17:00
CREA-UNITUS SEMINAR SERIES | EUROPEAN AND NATIONAL POLICIES FOR ENERGY TRANSITION IN THE AGRI-FOOD SECTOR
SEPTEMBER 11 | 3:00 PM
Registration: https://seminaricreaunitus.crea.gov.it/
The global events of recent years – from the pandemic to the instability of energy and raw material supplies – have highlighted the need to establish a more sustainable relationship with the environment, through a substantial paradigm shift in the way we consume and produce. This transformation, or rather transition, is aligned with the path outlined by the new PNIEC, and it fully involves the worlds of production, services, and households. Such a situation calls for a new approach, in which productivity and economic growth must be reconciled with the goals of environmental sustainability, social inclusion, and energy transition. RSE’s contribution will focus on assessing the role of the agri-food sector, across its various supply chains, in achieving decarbonization targets.
The webinar is part of the training project “Towards Green Horizons”, organized within the framework of the excellence project D.I.Ve.r.So.
The Order of Agronomists and Foresters of Viterbo will grant 0.25 Professional Training Credits (CFP) for each seminar; the Territorial College of Graduate Agricultural Experts of the Province of Rome will grant 2 CFP per seminar; the National College of Agrotechnicians will also grant 2 CFP per seminar.
The training project counts toward the annual 40-hour training performance target outlined in the Directive of the Minister for Public Administration dated January 16, 2025. Credit recognition is subject to passing a final assessment test administered at the end of each event.

Artificial Intelligence and the Digitalization of Educational Processes within the Constitutional Framework
2025-09-30 15:00 - 2025-10-15 19:00
The lecture series on “The Integration of Artificial Intelligence and the Digitalization of Educational Processes, with Particular Reference to the Fundamental Principles Enshrined in the Constitution of the Italian Republic” is designed to familiarize students and staff with the main issues underlying this technology.
The lectures will cover theoretical foundations, practical case studies, and the ethical and legal implications of AI use in contemporary society, with particular attention to the relationship between technological innovation and the protection of fundamental rights. Special reference will be made to the constitutional principles of substantive equality (Art. 3), freedom of expression and information (Art. 21), the right to education (Art. 34), the protection of health (Art. 32), and the promotion of the human person (Art. 2), which provide the framework for the responsible use of AI.
A dedicated segment will focus on the role AI can play in supporting the psycho-physical well-being of university communities, always respecting constitutional guarantees regarding dignity, privacy, and non-discrimination.
The lectures are part of the Proben project, aimed at promoting quality of life in study and work environments. Within this context, AI will be presented as a tool for monitoring, prevention, and personalization of support pathways to foster the full development of the individual, in line with the constitutional principle of the complete development of human personality.
The series also aims to stimulate critical reflection, fostering greater awareness in the use of emerging technologies. Theoretical sessions will alternate with practical workshops to make learning engaging and participatory, particularly addressing the simplification of administrative acts and the use of AI in legislative and administrative processes, thereby promoting closer interaction between citizens and the State.
The meetings will be open to the entire university community, with the goal of creating spaces for dialogue and sharing, so that AI becomes not only a subject of study but also a concrete resource in the service of collective well-being and the realization of constitutional principles.
