Summary/Abstract: The relationship with food has always structured the relationship of man with the world. Food is the mediator of relationships, intertwining traditions, culture of dialogue; it is a factor that calls for occasions of brotherhood and solidarity, powers of human sustainability and of the planet. To promote paths and moments of dialogue among peoples in view of a shared food culture and to be attentive to the values of nature and sustainability may allow you to successfully address the food crises of our century. The Universal Exposition of Milan represents a unique opportunity to reflect and build intercultural and interdisciplinary training programs which can generate a human community where sustainable lifestyles, economy, infrastructure and technologies do not interfere with the inherent ability of nature to sustain life.
