- On August 14, 2018, the Morandi Bridge in Genoa collapsed killing 43 people. As highlighted in an alarming and somewhat forgotten Senate report, concrete everywhere is showing worrying signs of fragility: from small country bridges to huge achievements that make people proud, such as the viaduct on the Ile de Ré.

This conviction comes in a particular context of collective awareness on sexual violence. It is symptomatic of a change of mentalities. A symbolic, but equally universal story in the post #MeToo era.
