A farewell to Pino

It is with shock and sadness that we announce the passing of Giuseppe Ponzini, Senior Researcher at IRPPS. He was a point of reference for the Fisciano office, having been among the first to settle in the original Penta headquarters, and was esteemed by the entire Institute for his scientific and human qualities.

Pino carried out his research and lived for a long time in Fisciano, making a fundamental contribution to welfare studies that were included in the Annual Report on the Welfare State in Italy, until his transfer to the Brindisi branch.

He was a brilliant and versatile researcher. Curious and intuitive, he would delve into new topics, putting his extensive erudition to good use.

He was a kind and generous person toward his colleagues and friends.

He was an excellent teacher whom many had the opportunity to appreciate, both at the university and in various training courses.

He leaves behind a great void and deep regret. Our thoughts are with his family.

A final embrace from all of us
