International programme of l'IsCaPI · since 2008
Education, culture and cooperation between peoples.
Pitagora Mundus is an exchange programme that builds peace through knowledge.
The villages of Italy and the cities of the world become crossroads of languages, arts and crafts.
Three parameters for every activity.
The Programme changes shape with the seasons of its history: Axes are born, grow and some come to an end. Three parameters stay constant and apply to every activity, in Calabria and abroad, in a classroom or on a stage. Vision, principles and objectives →
Beauty
The starting pointEvery activity begins with something worth knowing: a language, a landscape, a work of art, a craft, a tradition.
Utopia
The directionEvery activity looks towards a better world that does not yet exist: peoples who know each other, conflicts transformed through dialogue, marginal places that become meeting points.
The pursuit of happiness
The goalThe purpose of every skill is a good life lived with others: new ties for students, colleagues on other continents, a future for the communities that host them.
An activity joins the Programme when it reveals a beauty, brings a better world closer and increases the happiness of those who take part.
Four Axes, one design.
From language, the first tool of encounter, to art, a common language between peoples.
Italian language and culture
The Italian summer school for foreigners in Belvedere Marittimo, with CELI and CIC certifications, and the languages of partner countries for Italians.
