Associazione 11 Settembre

Associazione Culturale 11 Settembre is an Italian cultural association based in Vicenza that promotes public discussion and education on geopolitics, international security and current affairs. Its activities include the annual International Security Forum, a series of events examining global developments and their implications. The 2025 forum, titled “Europe in the Time of Trump,” featured meetings in Vicenza on 15, 22 and 29 May. Topics highlighted on the association’s website include open-source intelligence and intelligence in contemporary geopolitics, unresolved conflicts near Europe’s borders, artificial intelligence and geopolitics, and migration governance.

The association also develops educational initiatives for students through its Erodoto programme, presented as an expansion of curricular learning. Recent editions include Erodoto 5.0, focused on geopolitics as a tool for understanding and communicating the world, alongside earlier projects exploring historical perspectives and human actions. The website provides information about the association and membership, event archives, documents, press coverage, videos and photo galleries. Together, these activities connect public debate with educational resources on international affairs and the forces shaping today’s world.
