Hospitaliter is a non-profit network of agricultural and hotel businesses, set up on the initiative of Studio Lisi e Associati of Florence, which promotes projects aimed at creating integration between the agri-food production chain and the hospitality and restaurant sectors.

HOSPITALITER COMBINES:

THE VALUES OF HOSPITALITER
1“NECESSARY“ SUSTAINABILITY

We are living at a crucial stage for our planet: from the Glasgow climate negotiations to the declarations of the President of the United States of America on his intention of doubling funding for the fight against climate change, sustainability is becoming an urgent concern for the world’s major economies. As the UN has pointed out, “The world is currently not on track to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. The targets announced in Paris would result in warming well above 3 degrees by 2100 compared to pre-industrial levels”. It is thus clear that the current development model is no longer sustainabl ...

The definition implies an assumption of responsibility towards the environment and the economies of local people: it is not sufficient to use an architecture that respects nature, with building ...

Piazza San Firenze, 5 – Firenze

On Tuesday 23 November 2021, at the Fondazione Zeffirelli in Florence, Hospitaliter and Giunti Editore, organized a conference entitled "Architecture of Sustainable Tourism".
The subject of the conference is how architecture can shape the territory by integrating tourism, agriculture and energy while respecting the environment and the culture of these places. The issue of sustainability will be a priority in the coming years.
On this point, an effective policy should promote projects in which sustainability, to be genuine and lasting, is “supported” by the economy.
The integration of several economic sectors can simultaneously attain the goal of economic growth and environmental sustainability.
