Through Social Hosting Hub, one of the projects that won the Google.org Impact Challenge on security, we developed the first phyrtual educational ecosystem (physical and virtual) composed of connections, relations and communities. Four very different associations – Fondazione Mondo Digitale (Project Coordinator), ActionAid, Comunità di Sant'Egidio and Parole O_Stili – shared professionality and skills to develop safe place for everyone with tools calibrated for each age group to obtain information, choose the correct communicational style and behaviour, learn in a transformative manner, and develop new paradigms for socialisation based on common values. The activities held in 50 local hubs involved 32,000 people – students, teachers, parents, vulnerable young men and women, and citizens. The event’s protagonists will be the project beneficiaries, who will present their experiences on-line, experimenting with community digital tools developed to keep various generations safe, both on- and off-line. From an app to manage emotions for younger children to artificial intelligence devices to help people acquire a better awareness in choosing non-hostile words to digital rooms for learning to debate and argument.
