YAWP Festival 2025: learning elsewhere

The 2025 edition of YAWP Festival – In piedi sui banchi di scuola concluded with remarkable participation, reaffirming its role as a space for dialogue and growth dedicated to culture, creativity, and innovation.

For two days, students, teachers, scientists, writers, and journalists came together to imagine the school of the future: from sustainability to design, from new technologies to education as a tool for change.
A rich program of talks and workshops offered everyone the opportunity to share experiences, visions, and diverse perspectives, in an atmosphere of enthusiasm and genuine dialogue.

This year’s edition confirmed how essential intergenerational dialogue is: shared ideas, new collaborations, and the passion of young people finding their voice within an increasingly inclusive and participatory community.

The Festival ends with the satisfaction of those who have seen a place grow where school becomes shared energy and a driving force for the future.

A special thanks goes to the more than one thousand participants, partners, and collaborators who made this edition possible.
The Francesco Morelli Foundation continues to look ahead: the ideas born during the Festival will keep living through the projects and initiatives that will animate the coming months.

We look forward to seeing you at YAWP 2026!
