The Rockefeller Foundation Bellagio Center brings together people of diverse expertise and backgrounds in a thought-provoking, collaborative environment to generate knowledge and innovative solutions addressing a wide range of global issues. Since the Center’s establishment in 1959, we have seen the powerful results of investing in and unleashing human creativity.
The Bellagio experience fosters a robust exchange of ideas between scientists and artists, theorists and practitioners, those who make policy and those who are affected by it. Located in northern Italy on Lake Como, the Center convenes diverse actors and perspectives to generate solutions to critical social, political, health, environmental and economic challenges.
