Summer Course 2004


"Get new energies in your life: be renewable!"

Solar panelsWind plantIt is clear that in the next years energy will be a crucial issue for the future of human race. That is why we want to face this topic from different points of view, from technical to social aspects. The purpose is to understand and discover new technologies which we can work on to make our development as sustainable as possible.

Wind, biomass, hydrogen are some of the new possible energy sources that will be analyzed, enviromental impacts and other aspects we will consider as well.

Moreover Rome offers a special background for the course with its history and beauty. You'll have the chance to walk through the "foro romano" and visit places with 2500 years of history and we promise you that our parties will not get out of your mind very soon...

...see you in Rome then!

Survival guide

This small guide wants to be a little more complete than the usual "pre material" sent by mail; we just tried to think about the common questions that a newcomer like you would have about Rome and Italy in general; some paragraphs will not be essential, but some others may contain essential information that will, in our hope, give you a useful overview of this new environment in which you will spend at least 2 weeks. Some paragraphs are very important, other paragraphs will tell you about the habits of our country. By living with us you will understand the differences that exist between the various European cultures and sometimes maybe you'll be surprised how Italians think or act differently than other populations, while some other times you'll discover how close we are; in all those case, just open your mind. The whole group here longly prepared this course and we'll do our best to make it working in the better way; on the other hand your co-operation will be essential; attending a BEST event means giving capital importance both to the didactic and the social part. This means that your good mood and your enthusiasm will be the capital component to fulfil one of the main objectives of the course: TO HAVE FUN! Also, we have included in this section the Leaflet for this Summer Course; you can download both in a ZIP format containing an easy to print PDF document :). The whole group of Rome wishes you a very very warm? WELCOME TO ROME!
