Urban reinvestment by The Genitori Scuola Di Donato Association |
| Date |
2003 |
| Description of the project |
The Genitori Scuola Di Donato Association aims to serve as a catalyst for civic engagement by fostering socialization and participation through the provision of recreational, artistic, cultural, sports, educational and training activities, promoting and consolidating the mutual exchange between the different cultural identities of the Esquilino district from a mutualistic perspective. (translated to english from the website)
The Genitori Scuola Di Donato Association has made “direct and voluntary participation in the care of school and neighborhood spaces its guiding principle, promoting virtuous circles of citizen and institutional empowerment.
Therefore, in addition to the recovery of the abandoned spaces of the institute, the association has fought for the recovery of the gardens of Piazza Vittorio and Piazza Manfredo Fanti, the opening of the gyms of the former Silvio Pellico institute to the neighborhood, the creation of the pedestrian plaza at the school exit, and the activation of home-school-playground routes with safe crossings” (Soucre : https://www.romasette.it/archivio/integrazione-a-scuola-genitori-in-prima-linea/ translated to english.)
Through the management, in synergy with institutions, of an Open and Participatory School, school as a common good, AG aims to offer girls, children and adults (interested and not necessarily parents) a place to meet and share, open to the territory in extracurricular hours.

| Description of the project |
Among different projects, volunteers from the Capitano Ultimo Onlus association have created a leather workshop where genuine handmade leather products are made.
It is a unique product made exclusively by volunteers, juvenile detainees, boys from group homes and people with psycho-social distress, because craftsmanship is the ultimate rebellion against globalization to cultural and moral alienation.
Bags, belts, wallets, suitcases are made together with master craftsmen.More widely, it takes place in house where 10 persons have built a micro-economy fed by the families who come by every weekend. “We have restored 8 rooms where we host homeless people free of charge who make an effort with us to survive.” (website) Religious ceremonies are also an important part of the association. |

| Description of the project |
“100 e A CAPO” is non-profit and operates exclusively for social solidarity purposes. It was born from the will of some unemployed mothers who, after the successful experience of ‘Bici in piazza a Centocelle’, proposed to continue to collaborate towards the realisation of educational projects aimed at schools and social solidarity with low environmental impact that aim to facilitate multicultural cooperation, the promotion of mobility on foot and/or by bicycle, the active participation of children, the approach to sport, and the knowledge and valorisation of the historical, environmental and urban heritage, particularly in Centocelle. |

| Description of the project |
After the evacuation of the City of the Other Economy project at Campo Boario, a permanent city laboratory of realities and enterprises whose aim is to centre their activity on social utility, for the construction of a society that protects common goods, a fair, participated and sustainable society. An economy that creates social wealth and a good life for the territories and communities that inhabit them.
Every first Sunday of the month, there is EcoSolPop – the ECOlogical, SOLIDAL and POPULAR NON-market: a place-event in which numerous agricultural producers, short-chain food producers and artisans of reuse and recycling come together in an area of free exchange, bartering and gratuitousness, the critical and solidarity-based consumers of Gas, the itinerant laboratory of degrowth, activities for children, backyard games and writing workshops.Citizens, associations, entrepreneurs or shopkeepers, schools, universities or other cultural institutions are taking care (or have expressed the intention to take care) of this shared resource in the interest of the community.This collaborative community has created a form of management of the shared resource that is environmentally, economically, socially and culturally sustainable to ensure its use by the whole community. |
