Moige youth mental health prevention tour in Italy

Overview

The Movimento Italiano Genitori (Moige) launched the ‘So. Starti Accanto’ national tour in Italy to prevent youth distress. Funded by the Ministry of Labor and Social Policies and the Intesa Sanpaolo Charity Fund, the initiative uses a mobile center to establish support networks between families, schools, and local communities through training and counseling.

As the project progressed, it expanded its focus to address a mental health and addiction crisis among adolescents. Data cited during the tour indicates that one in four young people shows symptoms of depression, and nearly 40% of those aged 15 to 19 have used psychoactive substances. The initiative also targets rising rates of alcohol consumption, pathological gambling, and digital addiction. The tour includes 40 stops across the country, featuring psychologist-led sessions and meetings for parents and teachers.
