The Carabinieri have engaged in various community outreach and educational initiatives targeting youth across Italy.

In July 2026, during the European Universities Games in Montoro, the Carabinieri utilized a booth at the Sandro Pertini stadium to promote sports and road safety. The program included interactive road-safety simulations involving special glasses to demonstrate the effects of alcohol or drugs, as well as self-defence training sessions led by the boxing unit.

In August 2026, the force expanded its engagement through the ‘Cultura della legalità’ (Culture of Legality) project. In Marlengo, approximately thirty children from the ‘Kindersommer Marling’ summer camp met with officers from the Cermes and Merano stations to view operational equipment, such as an Alfa Romeo Tonale and a Ducati Multistrada 1260 motorcycle. Similarly, in Sant’Angelo dei Lombardi, students from a summer school in Rocca San Felice visited the Carabinieri Company to explore the operations center and service vehicles, receiving ‘Carabinieri for a day’ certificates of merit.

Later in August 2026, the Baiano Company held an educational meeting for approximately 50 young people aged 10 to 16 under the theme “La legalità non va in vacanza” (Legality does not go on vacation). This initiative was part of the national “Anch’io sono la Protezione Civile” project, which focused on civil protection and conscious community participation. During the session, personnel explained the role of the Carabinieri in emergency contexts and the functions of specialized units to promote informed citizenship.
