Italy
participants
The main goal was to collaborate with American and italian people to clean up the city center of the city while enjoying it, there where as many guides as the number cleaning groups, indeed. Through that activity we wanted to raise awareness about environmental protection, give to foreigners and to our students a little city tour and and to break down barriers between different generations by engaging in useful and collective volunteer activites.
The activity started at 12 am. The meeting point was: Palace of Congresses in Piazza Adua where all associations (our's included) had the possibility to make a short exposition about main goals and activities that are carried out yearly.
People where randomly devided in cleaning up groups, given the essentials to clean safely and associated to a professional guide. The clean up activity was carried out in different spots of the city center while other people remained at the Palace to join other upcycling workshops. The event ended at around 4pm, we came back to the meeting point where a vegetarian break was offered.
