🏢 About the local organisation
Festa per la Libertà dei Popoli NGO has been organising for 30 years already a multicultural festival which involves the whole city of Ancona and focuses on issues rarely tackled by the media. It aims at providing an alternative point of view and independent stand on issues such as coexistence, interculturality, peace and non violence, with an international dimension.

This year, it will be entirely dedicated to the importance of the land for the inhabitants of the Earth. Local NGOs will also be involved, providing contents related to their main fields of actions through a meeting, a video projection, performances.
