Two women, one project: Parma Multi Faith is born
Parma Multi Faith is a project designed to map, narrate, and network all the religious and spiritual entities present in the Parma area — including those engaged in religious mediation activities or belonging to less known and structured groups.
Costanza Marchesini and Lisa Zuliani were strongly committed to this initiative and worked together to bring it to fruition, united by their desire to offer a useful, inclusive, and reliable service to all citizens, with a particular focus on promoting religious pluralism and intercultural dialogue.
Costanza Marchesini, graduated in Cultural Heritage Conservation from the University of Parma and certified in Archival Science, Paleography, and Diplomatics from the State Archives of Parma, is an independent scholar passionate about history, art, and archives. With extensive experience in cataloging, preserving, and enhancing cultural heritage, she has published several studies and participated as a speaker at conferences and study days, collaborating with important cultural entities in the area.
Lisa Zuliani is a Religion teacher at lower secondary schools in the province of Parma. After earning a degree in Religious Studies, she furthered her education in the pedagogical and museum fields, obtaining a degree in Pedagogical Sciences and a Master’s in General Museum Education. She published a contribution in the journal Empirical Studies of Museum Education and participated in the 26th ICOM International Conference in Prague.
The objectives of Parma Multi Faith
The enthusiasm, interdisciplinary skills, and passion for cultural and religious heritage are the foundation of this project, born from respect for all cultures and the desire to contribute to a more aware, inclusive, and dialoguing community, in the belief that accurate and accessible information can bridge the various faiths, fostering knowledge and integration.
With Parma Multi Faith, we all build together an open and participatory showcase, where every entity finds space and recognition.
We invite everyone to discover the stories, traditions, and initiatives that enliven the religious and spiritual landscape of our city.
