ICC is a scientific, interdisciplinary, international cooperation network bringing together scientists and practitioners from various fields and disciplines. Its aim is to develop research and debate on the factors and barriers of social cohesion, transparency, justice, respect, trust, agency, cooperation, and well-being in a society experiencing rapid technological development and affected by crises, divisions and natural disasters.
Connectivity it is the ability to establish, sustain and rebuild interpersonal and intergroup relationships. We assume that the development of this capacity can contribute to the restoration of communities that have been in crisis, and that this capacity can also be used to prevent crises and to individual and social progress.
The coordinators are responsible for implementing the ICC's tasks in the field of research, debates and scientific publications.
ICC members are people and institutions that declare regular participation in events and projects organized within the network (conferences, debates, publications, exchange).
