02:09and is the result of a co-creation process
02:12among the young people and professionals of the Max Mara group,
02:15who produced original graphics, bearers of a unique story.
02:20I'm thinking for example of the T-shirt
02:22Orange is the color of jokes,
02:24when we told the story together with the boys,
02:26thanks to our hermochromist,
02:28how colors are made, where they are born, what their stories are.

02:39This association of his was something that was really very powerful for us,
02:43to spread, to tell, to make everyone understand

02:53Review the priorities of the 2027 budget law
02:57This is the request from Aoi, the Association of Italian Organizations for International Cooperation and Solidarity.
03:05According to estimates by the Milex Observatory,
03:07elaborated on the tables of the bill,
03:10military spending will exceed 40 billion euros,
03:14while the funds allocated to cooperation and development
03:17will decrease by 13.7%.
03:20For every euro less spent on cooperation, an additional 51 euros would go to military spending.
03:27According to the president of Aoi, Giovanni Lattanzi,
03:30Reducing these resources means weakening Italy's contribution to peace
03:35and responding to humanitarian crises.
