They intervene
Pier Fabrizio CERRO Psychiatrist
Gaetano FORNARO Psychiatrist
Elisa ZANELLI, Psychiatrist and President of the Zonta Club of Savona

Organized by the Zonta Club of Savona, in collaboration with the Ubik bookshop and with the patronage of the Municipality of Savona, ATSL area 2, the Savona Medical Association and SIRP (Italian Society of Psychosocial Rehabilitation, Ligurian section).

In Michela Marzano's latest book (philosopher, essayist, writer, and Professor of Moral Philosophy at the University of Paris Descartes), a need emerges that silently runs through the lives of many young women and men today: the need to be truly seen, recognized for who they are and not for what others expect of them. When that need goes unmet, it often takes the form of suffering—withdrawal, anxiety, a silent war with one's body—that families, schools, and even medical specialists struggle to understand.
