In late September 2026, Genoa hosted several maritime-focused social inclusion initiatives. The sailing ship Nave Italia, a solidarity brigantine operated by Fondazione Tender To Nave Italia ETS in collaboration with the Italian Navy, held an open day at the Porto Antico on September 27. The vessel focuses on educational and training projects for individuals facing disabilities or psychosocial and family hardships.

Following this, the Darsena area hosted the Genova PlayCity urban experimentation event, which drew approximately 3,000 participants to Calata Vignoso. Concurrently, the vessel Olivia was scheduled to be moored at the Darsena from September 28 to October 15. Managed by Eugenio Della Pia, the Olivia project provides workshops and sea outings to foster inclusion for migrants and individuals with physical or cognitive disabilities.
