University Delegates Program - the'Club of Ambassadors` FROM FLORENCE … we’re helping to trigger YOUNG PEOPLE’s EMOTIONS urging them to come up with THOUGHTS and PROPOSALS of use to the INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY The Club of Ambassadors-University Delegates is on Facebook  - click here to keep in touch !! Life Beyond Tourism ‘University Delegates’ are young professionals who come to Florence as Delegates of their Universities/Academies, in monthly programs promoted by the Romualdo Del Bianco Foundation and hosted by Florentine companies. The young ‘Ambassadors’ come to Florence as Delegates of the  Universities/Academies  to contribute to the diffusion and the promotion of the Life Beyond Tourism concept, its portal, its activities, and its international community. If the ‘University Delegates’ found in Florence Emotions, Reflections, Interests and Contributions to be spread out among  the International Community, they will then go back home as  ‘Ambassadors’ of Life Beyond Tourism orientation, and of the Life Beyond Tourism portal and directory, that aims to connect the heritage and academic field (’theory’) to the common daily life with handcrafts, employees, industrials but also to the field of commerce and  industry (’practice’). The LBT Photoblog turns around the Life Beyond Tourism portal, collecting   photographs that represent one's own idea and photo-interpretation of heritage, tourism and travel, cultural diversity , intercultural dialogue.
