With this volume, Annals of Geophysics proudly presents a special issue dedicated to celebrating the anniversary of Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia (INGV) for its “25 years of geosciences for society”. This collection of scientific articles is authored by dedicated researchers whose active participation and collaboration have brought prestige to both INGV and our journal. Although the list of authors is not exhaustive among the numerous past and present INGV collaborators, it offers an exciting and insightful journey through the fields of seismology, volcanology, and environmental science. This volume is divided into three parts: the first is dedicated to topics more closely related to seismology, the second to volcanology, and the last part is focused on environmental issues, including both review articles and articles addressing specific problems. There are contributions dedicated to the study of tsunamis and multi-hazard analyses, as well as, articles on the history of globally significant infrastructure and sections focused on the most widely used seismological models.   Enjoy your reading!
