In order to celebrate the 250th Anniversary of Alexander von Humboldt, this conference will bring together scientists of different research fields (human, social and natural sciences) sharing a common interest in all issues that have also interested Alexander von Humboldt and looking, as he did, for their interconnection. This means a wide range of topics, including: 

- The Cosmos and Cosmology

- Life and Diversity

- Culture and Diversity

- Human Being, Humanity and Cosmopolitanism

- Justice, Democracy and Citizenship

- Oppression, exploitation and global relations
