During the 11th UNESCO Chair in Bioethics held last year in Naples, the first world day of bioethics was nominated: the World Bioethics Day 2016 Human Dignity and Human Rights occurred on 19 October 2016.

As part of the Triennale XX1, The Bassetti Foundation participated with a program of reflections on the changing relationship between technological work, people and the city. The program was within a broad range of activities around the New Craft exhibition – curated by Stefano Micelli – at the Fabbrica del Vapore in Milano.
The events that we participated in or followed closely are documented with reports, photographs and videos.

Labour versus labour

April – September 2016

The chain of events started with the visit to San Francisco in 2013 born from our wish to bring our institutions, the relevant cultural organizations and companies from out territory, to meet the makers movement, based in the USA and captained by Chris Anderson.
After a journey that involved various other events, this year we all met again in the Trienale and New Craft exhibitions, both protagonists of the trip and who have developed the ideas since then.
Once the links to the first trip had been established and explained (see video) we went ahead.
Labour versus Labour was a day and a half of meetings in April, involving four panels. Developments are documented on the website through video, reports and photographs

Recently Bucchi published “Per un pugno d’idee” (For a Fist full Of Ideas, Bompiani Editore). A collection of innovation stories that have changed the world. We asked the author to discuss some of them those in which the network of responsibility is most evident – or of discovery that becomes innovation, the achievement of the improbable.

Health Data and its Vulnerability

by Alessandro Venturi and Stefano Regondi – 4 August 2016

Until today digital health data has existed for the use of health care systems, for example in Italy under the ultimate control of the Sistema Sanitario Nazionale (National Health Service, SSN) and of its capillary regional Sistemi Sanitari Regionali (SSR). This passage is not taken for granted however, and thinking of some of the problems that might arise around property rights, we highlight some critical issues: I) it is possible to pass on the data?; II) Alongside property rights there is also that of security: I) how is the data saved?; II) who is it saved and guarded for and against?; III) under which security requisites is it protected?
An investigation into the problems raised by the digitalization of information in the healthcare world. >>>
