Date: 28 October 2022 / 16:00 - 18:30

Auditorio, Campus Ovest, Via Buffi 13 Lugano

In recent years, there has been a growth in incidents of Mafia infiltration into the Swiss economic and social fabric. Despite these signs, the study of the phenomenon in Switzerland is limited. The Ticino Observatory on Organised Crime (O-TiCO) of Università della Svizzera italiana has established a collaboration agreement with the Transcrime research centre of Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, aimed at strengthening joint research and data exchange in this area. The event will feature experts and institutional representatives from Italy and Switzerland to address the risks and issues related to mafia infiltration and migration, particularly between the Canton of Ticino and Lombardy. The encounter will be held on Friday, 28 October 2022, from 4 pm to 6:30 pm at the USI West Campus Auditorium in Lugano.
