Italy for Multan has set out a complex plan of social and economic development, transformation and protection of the environment in one of Pakistan’s most ancient cities, backed by the work of over 70 professors, technicians and researchers from Politecnico di Milano. The exhibition was curated by Professor Adalberto Del Bo of Politecnico di Milano.
