Why
Invited by Prof. Alexander Thein and Lisa Doyle, this seminar was a very good opportunity to present on culture, archaeology and wellbeing to an audience of non-archaeologists (20 people) and get feedback from different perspectives . Francesco received questions and remarks on the approach behind the activities, the logistics and the methodology.
