I am a member of Mind and Life Europe. I chaired the Planning Committee of ESRI (European Summer Research Institute) for three times: 2022 “Learning with Others”, 2023 “Sentience and Responsability”, 2025 “Down to Earth”. In 2023-2024 I was the the Humanities Representative for Mind and Life Europe at the Annual Conference of the International Society for Contemplative Research. I organised and chaired the panel on the “Embodiment of Love in Contemplative Practices” and contributed with a talk to the Diversity and Inclusion Workshop.
I teach “Introduction to the Enactive Approach” at the Master in Contemplative Studies at the University of Padua, Italy.
