W.A.V.E. – We Act for Violence Eradication
General information
Project name: W.A.V.E. – We Act for Violence Eradication
Country: Italy
Timeline: From 1 January 2026 to 31 March 2027
Lead Organisation: Madiba Società Cooperativa Sociale
Partner Organisation: In(t)essere APS
Summary of Action
The project takes place in Beinasco and Rivalta di Torino, areas marked by educational poverty, social isolation and lack of listening spaces, where violence is often internalized as everyday language, especially among young people.
In this context, the project aims to consolidate an informal group of 30 young people, ensuring gender balance and the inclusion of youth with fewer opportunities and disabilities, who will become key actors in social, artistic and cultural initiatives promoting non-violence, dialogue and inclusion.
Through workshops, an art contest, the production of a music EP and public events, the project will engage at least 250 young people and 600 community members, while strengthening the capacity of partner organizations and local networks to adopt practices of peace education and Global Citizenship Education.
The approach is grounded in non-formal education, peer education and institutional collaboration.
