Transfer of know-how on youth social innovation tools

SPACE project Transfer of know-how on youth social innovation tools cofunded by
the Presidency of the Council of Ministers – Department of Youth and National Civil Service
and by the National Association of Italian Municipalities (ANCI), provides for the transfer
and adaptation to the territorial context of the municipality of S. Giorgio a Cremano (NA) of a
good practice of youth social innovation conceived by Melting Pro and tested by the
municipality of Ascoli Piceno.

Stimulating artistic and managerial creativity as tools of urban regeneration. This
is the strategy of the SPACE project, whose goal is to raise awareness among
young people to participate in the city’s cultural life and in the regenerative processes of disused public spaces,
also through the use of contemporary artistic languages, thus promoting
local employment development.

The focus of the initiative will be the enhancement of the eighteenth-century Villa Bruno in S. Giorgio a Cremano
as a national and European multidisciplinary hub for youth creativity,
expressed above all through the language of comedy, with a Board of young people
under 35 that guarantees an innovative and quality cultural program.

A series of interrelated actions will also be activated:

• Co-design and co-design tables for creatives, managers and stakeholders of
  the Vesuvius area for the development of the cultural planning plan of Villa Bruno
• Training course for under 35 in Cultural Management aimed at transferring
  operational-entrepreneurial skills and abilities for the sustainable management of Villa Bruno
• Urban Ateliers on Comedy for selected creatives and artists under 35, with
  public notice, to create site-specific performances and access professionalization paths,
  institutional channels of visibility, scholarships and artistic
  residencies.

The role of Project Ahead is to contribute to the transfer of know-how on youth social innovation
and to the managerial training of young professionals.
