The axis covers non-professional, reflective and liberal fields and topics; therefore, our activities revolve around principles that constitute the very nature of university education, setting it apart from other types of education, technical and vocational in particular.
The axis is ideologically grounded in the classical mission of liberal arts as arts worthy of a free person.
Its motto embodies the idea that freedom is a sine qua non for knowledge and its application, as well as for innovation and competitiveness. Therefore, the axis is open for participation to any university discipline fostering its non-professional aspect, in the sense in which every discipline can be understood as a human science exploring the possibilities of human knowledge. In a narrower sense, the axis is primarily a platform for disciplines that explicitly cultivate liberal education.
