E se iniziassimo a guardare l’infanzia con occhi diversi? L’Università LUMSA, in collaborazione con il @ChildismN (@RutgersU, USA; University of Stavanger, Norvegia; @roskildeuni, Danimarca), promuove “Non chiamateli bambini”, il primo gruppo di lettura in lingua italiana dedicato al childism. Martedì 19 maggio alle ore 15.00, in modalità online, si terrà il secondo appuntamento dell’iniziativa: uno spazio di confronto e riflessione su nuovi modi di pensare l’infanzia e i diritti delle persone più giovani.
