WHAT IS OGR TALKS?
A series of conversations to reflect on the present and imagine the future
OGR Talks is OGR Torino’s event series dedicated to the major issues of our time — a thoughtful, wide-ranging platform where words, ideas, stories, and perspectives converge, spanning culture, science, politics, current affairs, literature, music, and civic engagement. It’s a programme in constant evolution, rooted in critical thinking and deep listening.
These events are open and accessible to all, with Italian Sign Language (LIS) interpreters present at many sessions, and a strong emphasis on inclusion.
OGR Talks is a space for dialogue, grounded in the present, embracing its complexity, and inviting the public to become part of a shared narrative.
