Quid est homo? Quis est homo?
What is the human being? Who is the human being?
These questions were at the heart of the ICEEL 2026 Conference in Rome — an international dialogue at the intersection of science, philosophy, the arts, and ethical reflection.
Over two days, voices from 46 countries came together to explore the challenges and responsibilities of engineering life — in light of technological innovation and human dignity.

Rome. Vatican. A moment where dialogue becomes encounter.

A special highlight of the 3rd ICEEL Ethics Conference in Rome:
the audience with Pope Leo XIV.

We were honored to share and discuss the central theme of the conference
Quid est homo? Quis est homo?

His attentive presence, genuine interest, and encouraging words made this encounter truly meaningful.

Two extraordinary days in Rome —
where science, philosophy, theology and the arts came together to ask one of humanity’s oldest questions:
What is the human being — and who is the human being?

From inspiring panels and intense discussions to unforgettable encounters — including a truly special dialogue with David Cronenberg — ICEEL 2026 brought together brilliant minds from around the world.

These are just a few impressions from a conference that reminded us how vital it is to think together — across disciplines, perspectives, and cultures.

Thank you to everyone who made this possible.
