CULTURAL AND SOCIAL EVENT IN DÉNIA

Spring 2024 Festival
Dénia Festival de les Humanitats

Dénia Festival de les Humanitats turns Dénia into the epicentre of critical thinking. After the two successful autumn meetings and another in a reduced format held in March 2023, the Spring Festivals returns on April 10 and 11 with two debate sessions and the best speakers at national and international level. The multidisciplinary Festival is a meeting point for the greatest scholars in fields such as economics, neuroscience, medicine, anthropology, philosophy, history, humanism, ethics, and culture.

Dénia Festival de les Humanitats will continue with different parallel activities during the following months.

Create, Think, Imagine, Associate

Leading national and international figures reflect on concerns facing humans in today’s world, and on the changes that will take place in the near future, by means of concerts, round tables, and meetings that promote dialogue among science, technology, and humanities.

Exploring the Limits of Aging: Blessing or Global Challenge?

For biomedical research, aging has long ceased to be a mysterious "decay" or "degeneration" to become a problem of metabolic reactions, of small alterations in our DNA that are not corrected, of hormones and other signals that travel through the blood, cells that proliferate more or less than they should, or more or less powerful immune reactions. Aging has no more mystery, or it has the same mystery as any other biological process.

Cultural Capital of the Mediterranean

The city of Dénia preserves the legacy of its ancient history, the cradle of people and cultures for more than 2,000 years. As the capital of the Marina Alta region and within its status as a Creative City by UNESCO, Dénia continues to have an important cultural activity today, but the city longs the cultural luster of its taifa of a thousand years ago and aspires to recover its place as a beacon of culture and thought in the Mediterranean.

From October 26 to 28, Dénia Festival de les Humanitats will once again turn the city of Dénia into the epicenter of critical thinking, reflection and the Humanities in the Mediterranean.
