<strong>disseminate a new way of narrating and describing the city<\/strong> and to promote a new spirit of living in Venice, moving beyond self-pity and providing positive and proactive ideas for the city and its inhabitants, analyzing and resolving present environmental issues, and imagining solutions for the future by using Venice as a laboratory for analysis and proposals.<\/p>\n<p>The <a
