Cantiere Giovani is a non confessional, non governmental and non profit organization which believes in the individual’s skills of growing and changing in full autonomy and freedom, respecting and recognizing the individual complexity and diversity.
CG aims at spreading the concept of peace and solidarity, the promotion of an active citizenship society and of the youth as a central resource, intercultural training and the promotion of diversity as a positive force. Its intent is to pull down cultural obstacles, which are linked to prejudices and stereotypes, and to stimulate social attitudes towards each person through non formal and informal educational methods and actions to make each one conscious of the diversity of the other, to encourage the integration of immigrant communities in society, to set them at their ease.
Since 2003 CG runs intercultural youth and child centers. Among the services for the immigrant communities, there is a counter for legal counseling, a help desk for jobs and house research as well as Italian language courses, structured in three levels to face the different learning difficulties. CG collaborates with schools to organize and manage audiovisual courses. CG promotes International Voluntary Service through the organization and the management of international work camps, EVS projects and other youth exchanges within European and International programs. Cantiere Giovani gives special attention to communication as a tool to let services get closer to citizens and as democratic participation principle.
