After the pandemic period due to the spread of COVID-19, staff of the National Institute of Geophysics and Volcanology (INGV) with diversified skills and coming from different geographical areas has planned and organized the participation of the Institute in the XXXVI edition of the Futuro Remoto popular scientific event occurred in Naples from 22 to 27 November 2022, finally back in presence. Starting from the theme indicated by the organizers - called “Equilibrium” - the working group has developed a proposal entitled “Earth: in constant search for equilibrium”. The proposal has been articulated so as to start from the observation of the internal disequilibria that make the Earth a planet in continuous movement, up to the manifestations of the earth’s dynamics producing a significant impact on human life, such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and climate changes. These themes have been illustrated with models, demonstrations with scientific instruments, interactive exhibits and videos. Thanks to the activities carried out, the visitors have been able to exchange their points of view with the INGV staff, developing reflections on the proposed topics. Very important for the successful interaction between the INGV personnel involved and the public was the climate of collaboration and harmony created thanks to proactive attitudes, professionalism and skills of the staff who have planned, organized and participated in the event.
