Social Policies

Social and welfare intervention is Compagnia’s biggest commitment. Compagnia promotes and implements actions that induce system innovation in welfare, education and labour policies according to the principles of subsidiarity, generativity and sustainability.

These are the goals for 2019:

Launching the new phase of Provaci ancora Sam, an integrated and inter- institutional project aimed at promoting academic success and fighting against early school leaving. In 2019 the results obtained and the methodologies experimented in the previous three years of development of the initiative are to be consolidated.

Continuing and strengthening evaluation of ongoing initiatives concerning job placement for young people aged between 15 and 29 with low employability profiles (Art. +1) and for vulnerable adults (Integro and Formazione per la Mobilità Professionale);

Another strategic option is to reduce the weight of interventions carried out in place of public bodies and / or those centred on responding to emergency needs. The activity focuses on projects such as:

MOI in Turin (Migranti, un’Opportunità di Inclusione), an inter-institutional and integrated initiative to turn a concrete emergency into ways to promote progressive autonomy and inclusion (work, home, school, training, health), experimenting with solutions with a view to urban and social regeneration that can be transferred and reproduced in other contexts.

The project also presents an opportunity to experiment with blending models of allocation resources and investments;

Never Alone, a project promoted by Compagnia in collaboration with 8 other Italian foundations facing the emergence of foreign minors who arrived in Italy alone, supports experiments carried out by public and private organisations that promote paths of progressive autonomy, developing solutions to problems and / or particularly delicate growth phases with the aim of defining and consolidating practices and policies applicable in different national and international contexts.

Compagnia is increasing support for social initiatives in the field of welfare that can define plans for territorial development and experiment new service or financing models. Interventions are planned in this direction in 2019.

As far as methodology is concerned, 2019 key points consist in interpreting needs in a multidimensional way and integrating responses, in recipients’ active participation and joint responsibility, in strengthening and consolidating the evaluation systems of the experiments promoted, in the progressive conditionality of economic recognition of results obtained (pay by results).
