Educational and inclusive initiatives in Italy

Overview

Italy continues to expand specialized educational and community-based initiatives. Recent developments include the ‘Quel ballo lì’ project in Calabria, an affective education initiative aimed at raising awareness and reducing femicide. Supported by a 300,000 euro allocation, the project brings anti-violence center operators into secondary schools. This is part of a larger 6.5 million euro three-year plan (2026-2028) covering violence prevention, victim protection, and the support of women’s autonomy, which also includes the establishment of seven new anti-violence centers.

New academic and vocational partnerships are strengthening the link between education and the labor market. In Chieti, the Università degli Studi ‘Gabriele d’Annunzio’ has entered a two-year agreement with Confartigianato Imprese Chieti and Academy ForMe to promote research and economic development. In Cesena, a dual apprenticeship program for maintenance technicians has launched, while the ITS Academy system continues to expand, including energy efficiency courses in Modena and regional programming in Emilia-Romagna supported by 20 million euros.

Sustainability and social reintegration remain key focuses. The second edition of ‘Ripartiamo dal Packaging’ provides technical training to selected inmates to facilitate employment. Additionally, the 14th edition of ‘Green Game’ promotes circular economy themes in schools. In the Marche region, the ITS Academy delle Marche is conducting the “NEXT IN – ITS Marche Week” tour. The tour recently arrived in San Benedetto del Tronto, where over 300 high school students participated in immersive sessions under a geodesic dome. These activities focused on fields such as ICT, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence, aiming to develop the “super-technicians” required by modern industry through specialized two-year programs.
