The Foundation - Activities
The Foundation cooperates towards the rehabilitation and social reintegration of young people living in disadvantaged social conditions. At the side of basic health and schooling assistance, it works for the implementation of artistic initiatives aiming at psychological and educational support of the youngsters through an increase of their self-esteem, means of expressions and self-confidence.
The Foundation is also active in various situations where young people suffer from psychic or physical hardships by supporting artistic initiatives intended for their psychic and physical recovery.
In particular, Alta Mane supports:
- arts workshops carried out within situations of serious social or psychic-physical problems, in street children shelters and hospitals;
- vocational training and specialization of the social workers carrying out artistic initiatives in the social sector or in health institutions;
- information and promotion of the above activities and projects, also in order to give them greater visibility;
- exchange of experiences between partners working with similar techniques and purposes, but under different social, economic and cultural conditions, as well as exchange between the young beneficiaries of the relevant projects.
The selection and assessment of any prospective partner is made in a scrupulous manner in order to verify the correspondence of such partner with the Foundation’s mission as well as its reliability, seriousness, effectiveness, motivation and transparency.
Particular attention is devoted to verifying whether the prospective partner may be interested in exchanging its experiences with others and whether it is willing to become a part of a specific network, where each participant makes available to the others its own theoretical and methodological experiences in order to widen everybody’s theoretical, strategic and operational horizons.
