Та сеньйор Енріко не уявляв собі, як це – допомогти онлайн… Енріко Альбанезі – доктор філософії в галузі права, доцент кафедри конституційного права юридичного факультету Генуезького університету (Італія), молодший науковий співробітник Інституту перспективних юридичних досліджень (IALS) Лондонського університету (Сполучене Королівство Великої Британії та Північної Ірландії). У травні цього року професор Альбанезі прибув до України. Головна мета його відрядження – простягнути руку нашій країні, українському народу – в межах свого внеску як академіка, показавши, що ми не самотні в такий важкий час. І що дуже важливо, зробити внесок у складний процес європейської інтеграції, через який зараз проходить Україна, поділитися своїми знаннями в галузі конституційного права. І як найкращий спосіб це зробити, Енріко обрав живий зв’язок — а саме особисто приїхати до нас, щоб зустрітися з українськими колегами, провести обмін досвідом, підтримати їх, також прочитати лекції для студентів...» (Катерина Колесник)
