Research at the University of Bologna has the freedom to develop independent solutions, enabling the exploration of niche and less common areas.

We can direct research towards applications usually excluded from traditional funding.

What does it mean to make a donation?

Supporting free research

We seek solutions independent of financial interests, offering a space for studies that benefit small yet significant communities.

Changing the world, for real

We take concrete action on treating diseases, climate change and social problems so as to improve people's quality of life.

Tax benefits

Making a donation offers tax advantages, allowing you to deduct part of the contribution from your annual taxes.
