September 2025, Sicily: ‘Concerto Solidale’ at the Segesta Teatro Festival

On 5 September 2025, a special event took place at the ancient theatre of Segesta as part of the Segesta Teatro Festival: the ‘Concerto Solidale’, organised by the Jonas Foundation in collaboration with Archéologie Solidaire and the University of Geneva (Département des Sciences de la Terre, Alessia Mistretta).

Children from Tbilisi/Georgia took to the stage, accompanied by musicians Natia and Dachi Taktakishvili. Together with international artists such as Enrique Mejia, Carlo Taobada, Lia Inarez Moro, Peter Rayner, Darcy Dixon and Stephanie James, they created an evening that impressively combined music, solidarity and intercultural encounter.
