In late July 2026 Italian municipalities expanded local services for vulnerable residents. On July 26, Villa di Lozio reopened a former elementary school as a multifunctional hub offering a council hall, library, health office, pharmacy, gym with a climbing wall, co‑working space with high‑speed fiber and rooms for local groups, while Castellazzo Bormida added a multisensory room to its day‑care centre for people with disabilities. Two days later, Genoa inaugurated a second co‑housing dwelling for seniors under the COLIVINGenova programme, and nearby Toritto converted a former guard house into a co‑housing home for up to twelve disabled individuals. Both projects were financed by regional, national and European recovery funds and involved multiple public and nonprofit partners, illustrating a coordinated push to improve autonomy, social inclusion and quality of life for seniors and disabled citizens across Italy.
