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.
