The cooperative social AZZURRA was founded in
1996.
The main activities of the cooperative are in
the area of the social tourism and especially in
the area of the education of disadvantaged
people.
We
see our field of application in a comprehensive
continuing education program in the sphere of
the social tourism and the European continuing
education. These are two sectors which are
narrowly connected with each other: they should
offer the possibility to youngsters to find out
new drafts on the subject combined Europe and in
the European neighboring country, to attain
professional development within the aims of
Leonardo Da Vinci mobility programs.
Consequences like cultural exchange,
professional know-how, understanding among
nations, finding of employment in the European
job market and social growth are our purposes.
The cooperative pursues these purposes by means
of collaboration with partners, experts and
vocational education centers in the sphere of
the social tourism, gastronomy, education, and
other professional fields, among the rest, it
leads a youth hotel in which also the activities
of the continuing education are realized.
Since 2001 a narrow collaboration with other
training centers – and vocational education
organizations in the area of the European
vocational education within the aims of the
mobility projects LEONARDO DA VINCI e COMENIUS.
Between other activities the cooperative AZZURRA
has coordinated and realized a summer camp for
children and youngsters (plays and education) in
collaboration with the Municipality of SPOLETO.
Since 1999 the cooperative AZZURRA is one of the
foundation members of the federation of
cooperatives which have taken over the guidance
and the management of the cultural services and
the museums of the town SPOLETO.
