Aperte le candidature alla prima edizione del “Lambrogino 2026: i custodi del fiume”

È ufficialmente lanciato il Premio Lambrogino, promosso nell’ambito delle attività del pilota milanese del progetto PALIMPSEST.

Da oggi e fino al 15 marzo è possibile inviare la propria candidatura o suggerire il soggetto meritevole per il “Lambrogino”, l’onorificenza istituita per valorizzare iniziative capaci di affrontare la complessa relazione tra le comunità e i propri fiumi, riconoscendo che il futuro dei territori è indissolubilmente legato alla salute dei propri corsi d’acqua. 

Ispirandosi simbolicamente all’Ambrogino d’Oro, storica onorificenza civica assegnata dal Comune di Milano, il Lambrogino inaugura un nuovo paradigma di riconoscimento pubblico: il fiume stesso diventa il fulcro della premialità, invitando cittadini, istituzioni e realtà del territorio a immaginare nuove forme di impegno civile nel tempo della crisi climatica. 

The Lambrogino Award, promoted as part of the activities of the Milanese pilot of the PALIMPSEST project, has been officially launched.

From today until 15 March, you can submit your application or suggest a worthy candidate for the “Lambrogino”, an award established to promote initiatives that address the complex relationship between communities and their rivers, recognising that the future of these areas is inextricably linked to the health of their waterways.

Symbolically inspired by the Ambrogino d’Oro, a historic civic award given by the City of Milan, the Lambrogino inaugurates a new paradigm of public recognition: the river itself becomes the focus of the award, inviting citizens, institutions and local organisations to imagine new forms of civic engagement in this time of climate crisis.
