The Prof. Gert-Jan Hospers, Member of Scientific Committee of Cittaslow In'tl, and the Secretary General, Pier Giorgio Oliveti, will represent the association into the speakers group from different countries and disciplines.

The workshop will be a good opportunity for cross-cultural and interdisciplinary knowledge exchange on Japanese/Western shrinkage and the Cittaslow concept.
