The “Guido Dorso” Prize is an important recognition of Professor Capasso‘s commitment to promoting and enhancing the study of the Mediterranean area at an international level, with a solidary, cooperative and peaceful approach. Also significant is his contribution to Mediterranean studies in the drafting of the Report on Mediterranean Economies and in the creation and development of the Institute for Mediterranean Studies of the National Research Council (CNR-ISMed), which he directed from 2020 to 2023.
The awards ceremony will take place in the School of Specialisation in Architectural and Landscape Heritage of the University of Naples “Federico II”, in Largo Donnaregina, in the presence of numerous authorities.
