We’ve have reached the last weeks of school, which based on regional calendars, will end between June 5 and 16. However, schools will be able to host courses based on the summer plan published by the Ministry of Education from June to September [see: Summer School Plan 2021].
Our support activities will continue in blended fashion, based on local contexts. This week’s virtual labs include the following projects: Ambizione Italia for Youth, Coding Girls, OpenSPACE, Social Hosting Hub, and Fully Enjoy the Internet.
Some labs will be held in presence for OpenSPACE in Phyrtual Innovation Gyms in participating schools.
Service projects involving all citizens to improve digital, functional and soft skills include Ambizione Italia for Youth (COL users), Starting Back Up Together, Job Digital Lab, School of Internet for Everyone and Vagone FMD. From 01 to 100.
The cycle of on-line seminars dedicated to soft skills for the labour market continue with the Rome Youth Information Centre - Informagiovani Rome Capitale. And this week also marks the beginning of our collaboration with Porta Futuro and the City of Bari. The first courses will be open to everyone [see news: Porta Futuro in Bari].
In particular, this week’s appointments include a roundtable on “The Women’s Pandemic: A Pathway to Recovery” promoted by Facebook. The appointment is for tomorrow – Tuesday, May 25, at 10:50 am – with a live stream on the Binario F Facebook Page with Mirta Michilli, Director General, Fondazione Mondo Digitale.
