ICTP 2.0: Science lives here Global Challenge

 Do you believe in the Butterfly Effect? It’s the phenomenon whereby a small action—like the flap of a butterfly’s wings—can spark massive changes across the world. Here's your chance to test the Butterfly Effect yourself. Here’s what’s happening: ·      The Adriatico Guesthouse , a place full of memories and meaning for the whole ICTP community, is being reimagined for the future, with the help of a transformative $15 million matching grant from the Simons Foundation International . Now we must rise to the challenge to complete its renovation and unlock the full potential of this generous match. And.... ·      Prof. Jagadish Shukla , meteorologist and author of A Billion Butterflies: A Life in Climate and Chaos Theory , made an incredible gesture of support and friendship to the Centre. He’s pledged $25,000 —and is inviting ICTP alumni and friends to match it. Every dollar you give will be matched 1:1 by Prof. Shukla — and your gift will be quadrupled thanks to the Simons Foundation International match. Together we can turn $25K into $50K and $50K into $100K! No gift is too small. Be the butterfly that starts a chain reaction of discovery. Donate now to quadruple your gift
