The foundation publishes and makes visible documents and materials on these themes, gathers links to associations, blogs and journals working in the field, and supports publications, studies and events. Its activities include an annual memorial reading and conference held with the Fondazione Collegio San Carlo in Modena, a seminar linked to the Cattedra Lombardini, scholarships, a catalogue and archive of Lombardini's manuscripts, and an online multimedia archive of its meetings.
