On the occasion of 8 March, an initiative focused on the current situation in Iran is held.

It will be held in Italian but we think it may be of interest to you.

8 marzo Giornata Internazionale della donna

Auditorium “Ennio Morricone” – Macroarea di Lettere e Filosofia – Mercoledì 8 marzo 2023, ore 15,00

Mercoledì 8 Marzo, alle ore 15.00, presso l’Auditorium “Ennio Morricone” della Macroarea di Lettere e Filosofia, il Comitato Unico di Garanzia di Ateneo celebrerà la Giornata Internazionale della Donna con un evento dedicato, in particolare, alla lotta non violenta del popolo iraniano.

Dopo i saluti istituzionali a cura del Magnifico Rettore, Nathan Levialdi Ghiron, della prof.ssa Barbara Martini, delegata alle Pari Opportunità e all’Inclusione, della Presidente del CUG, prof.ssa Virginia Tancredi e della Presidente Onoraria del CUG, prof.ssa Elisabetta Strickland, il palco sarà animato dai contributi della mediatrice culturale iraniana dott.ssa Parisa Nazari e del prof. Massimo Papa, ordinario di Diritto Musulmano e dei paesi islamici.

«La lotta non violenta del popolo iraniano per la prima volta mette al centro i diritti della donna come motore di un cambiamento epocale. Una lotta che non è iniziata il 16 settembre del 2022 con l’uccisione di Mahsa Jina Amini, giovane donna curda “colpevole” di aver commesso il “reato” di essere “malvelata”, bensì agli inizi del ‘900 con il movimento costituzionalista iraniano» ci ricorda Parisa Nazari e prosegue «Mai come negli ultimi decenni il popolo iraniano e in particolare le donne iraniane, hanno investito sull’istruzione universitaria e mai come oggi sono consapevoli dei loro diritti fondamentali e del valore dell’uguaglianza di genere». Il prof. Papa darà una chiave di lettura giuridica delle rivolte in corso, focalizzandosi sul codice penale della Repubblica Islamica e sulle principali fattispecie di reato invocate dal regime per reprimere le varie forme di dissenso mettendo in rilievo l’iniquità e la parzialità dei processi a carico di giovani imputati.

Concluderà l’evento una performance artistica con danza, musica e poesia a cura degli studenti e delle studentesse iraniane del Comitato “Donna, vita, libertà”.

Dear students,

we inform you that an application has arrived from an international student for the role of student representative.
It is strongly hoped that at least one other application will be received by the deadline of March 11, with a view to a better representation of the various problems that may concern the course, preferably from an Italian student.

We inform you that for health reasons, the lesson of tomorrow 3 March will not be held.

The day and time for the recovery of the lesson will be communicated as soon as possible.

Dear students,

the Roman Archeology course was scheduled for the second semester, but an unexpected problem arose due to the teacher’s sudden unavailability. Since the course cannot be reactivated soon, all students who have included it in their study plan are advised to replace it with another subject. It is possible of course to choose another exam within the framework of “HISTORY, ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT DISCIPLINES”. If, on the other hand, it was chosen in the “Optional chosen by the student” framework, it can be replaced with any other elective course. We remind you that in a related discipline, the Course of Prof. Alessio De Cristofaro, Archeology of the Roman Empire, begins as scheduled, which for the Master’s Degree Course in “Tourism Strategy, Cultural Heritage and Made in Italy” is called ” History of classical archeology: Collections, Museums and Conservation of Cultural Heritage”.

Those who find themselves in this situation and need to recompile their study plan can send an e-mail to Info@tourismstrategy.lettere.uniroma2.it with the subject “Replacement Roman Archaeology”.

On the anniversary of the beginning of the conflict in Ukraine, a lesson open to all students and teachers will be held in room T12A, Building A, Humanity Faculty, on Friday 24th of February, 11:00 a.m.

The lesson will mainly deal with the topic from the point of view of International Law.

It will be held by Prof. Federica Mucci and will be mainly in Italian.
