Rimini città aperta. Nuove sfide per l’accoglienza: l’educazione in emergenza

Europe has once again become the theater of war with the Russian‐Ukrainian conflict, endangering children's rights and causing desperate escapes of women and children. The humanitarian emergency has also shaken the civic conscience of Italy, urging the vocation to solidarity of several cities which, in the face of the challenges posed by the umpteenth conflict, have generated alliances with local actors to welcome Ukrainian minors thanks to various educational projects. In Rimini, the city and citizens have collectively moved within the significant places of resistance and education for cooperation which, born during the Second World War, have become spaces for peace education for intercultural inclusion. Through a brief qualitative research, we have reflected with the key players on the strengths and weaknesses of the experience achieved, from which both the complexities of educating in emergency situations emerged, and the need to identify trajectories innovations useful to directing effective responses.
