glossaLAB 2025 - Mapping the information understanding 

In the so-called “information era”, in which digital technologies are providing us extraordinary capabilities but a brand-new breadth of issues, scattered in fragmented challenges, we don't feel able to tame them just by means of these new capacities, though we are confident they should be a significant part of the coping with. The problem is indeed double-faced: on the one hand, we have to understand better what information is in its multiple aspects and contexts of application; on the other hand, we need to face the enormous flow of information, overcoming the information overloads, obscurities, deceits and exclusions, and improving its quality in benefit of the resolution of problems at different levels, from individuals to organisations of different size and reach.

The glossaLAB Workshop invites researchers from all branches of knowledge to present and discuss interdisciplinary approaches aimed at putting information and its technologies at the service of building and integrating knowledge and tackling complex problems.
