How can you contribute to the Network in your country?

We have a strong expertise in project planning and networking, that might be useful for different partners and the network itself, especially in the Piedmont region and at the national level in the field of Youth.
We would like to share some good practices born and raised in 10 years of work with the local communities.
We can support young people and youth organizations in organizing and delivering meaningful learning experiences in formal and non formal environments.

Why do you want to join the ALF Network?

A good network makes a bigger and more long-term sustainable impact. We believe ALF is one of those.
In the last 3 years are increasingly working with Euro-Mediterranean countries (Jordan, Israel, Palestine, Morocco, Tunisia, Portugal, Spain, France, Slovenija, Croatia to nema the main ones) and we need to gain a more in depth knowledge and stronger connection with the civil society of those countries. We joined a network of NGOs active at the Euro-Mediterranean level, but so far it didn't bring much of added value to our work.
