The governance of the Leone XIV International Study Centre ETS is articulated through a variety of governing bodies, committees, and operational structures that contribute to the definition of scientific and cultural priorities, the planning of activities, and the implementation of research, educational, and outreach projects promoted by the Association.
This page provides an integrated overview of the composition of the Board of Directors, the Scientific Committee, the Honorary Committee, the operational committees, and the Secretariat, offering a transparent and comprehensive picture of the individuals who contribute to the mission of the Study Centre.
These bodies and operational structures bring together scholars, university professors, researchers, religious, professionals, and institutional representatives from different countries and disciplinary backgrounds. The diversity of expertise reflects the international and interdisciplinary character of the Study Centre and supports dialogue between academia, ecclesial institutions, civil society, and organisations committed to research and education.
The various bodies operate in close collaboration with the Augustinian Community of Santo Spirito in Florence, where the Study Centre is based, as well as with an expanding network of universities, research centres, cultural institutions, and national and international organisations. This cooperation contributes to the scientific quality of the Centre’s initiatives, its local engagement, and its openness to the major social, cultural, and political challenges of the contemporary world.
Alongside the governing and scientific bodies, the Secretariat ensures the administrative, organisational, and communication coordination of the Study Centre’s activities, facilitating cooperation among the governing bodies, the scientific community, members, and institutional partners.
