    PARMA MANUFACTURERS’ ASSOCIATION www.upi.pr.it Parma and its enterprises October 2020 1 Preface Parma Manufacturers’ Association is pleased to offer this study whose purpose is to provide an up-to-date source of information for public and private institutions and organizations specifically interested in issues and questions related to industrial development in our province. More specifically, the aim of “Parma e le sue imprese” (Parma and its Enterprises) is to provide an overview of industrial activity in our province, focusing on the wide variety of manufacturing and service sectors and the specialized activity thereof. In fact, even if the core of Parma’s manufacturing tradition is to be found in the production and processing of agricultural products –Parma ham and parmesan cheese that have made it known around the world are good examples of this – there are many other sectors, some connected to this core activity and others not, which have contributed to make our productive capacity one of the most important in Italy today, fully capable of meeting the needs of our modern world and an increasingly globally-oriented future. Special thanks go to the Studies and Research Department for their tireless efforts in the preparation of this study.

Methods: The path taken was divided into several phases: arrangement of moments of interaction with students; teaching activity aimed at students based on the relationship between ethno-anthropological knowledge, aspects of migration medicine and social legislation; direct meetings with representatives of some communities present in the Parma area. Results: The interaction with students was achieved through meetings called “Cultural Coffee”. The first meetings, in the measure of 4-5, took place in the period October-December 2013, subsequently, the same number of meetings was repeated in the following years. In 2019, two important results were achieved: the creation of an ADE (teaching chosen by the student) dedicated to multiculturality.
