In Civitavecchia, activists from Riscossa Democratica, EveraProject volunteers, and local citizens conducted an urban redevelopment initiative. After finding that their initial target, Piazza Verdi and the adjacent beach, had already been cleaned by authorities, the group redirected their efforts to the railway station parking lot.

Describing the parking area as an “open-air landfill,” the volunteers removed accumulated waste. Following the cleanup, Riscossa Democratica submitted a formal proposal to the Municipal Administration requesting the installation of video surveillance cameras and improved public lighting to enhance safety and deter illegal dumping.
