🏢 About the local organisation
The Spazio Giovani service is run by the social Cooperative “Il Pungiglione” and is addressed to young people with disabilities coming from the municipalities of the Distretto RM 5.1 ( Monterotondo, Mentana e Fonte Nuova). CSERDI is an intercommunal daily centre about rehabilitation and social education that operates in the same district, offering different activities and workshops to promote the socialization among adult people with disabilities. Our proposal is to create a net of collaborations and a experience exchange system that involves both young volunteers from all over the world and people with disabilities.

The work of volunteers consists in the realization of decor products made of recycled materials, specifically they will make a polyfunctional wall. This task will include all the phases : the planning, the finding of material and the final phase of realization that will be supported by some professional technicians members of the staff with the help of proper furniture. The working time will be from Monday to Friday ( 9:00 – 16:00 with a lunch break), after that the whole team will be involved in other activities to promote inclusion, socialization and free time values.
