About Us

This project brings together an international group of researchers from different disciplines (philosophy, psychology, sociology, political science, international relations, history, law, cultural studies, literature) who have been conducting research for several years on issues of cosmopolitanism in its personal, social, cultural, political and legal dimensions.

Goal 1: End poverty in all its forms everywhere;

Goal 10: Reduce inequality within and between countries;
