FONDAZIONE EDOARDO GARRONE IS A MEMBER OF ASVIS
Alleanza Italiana per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile (ASviS – Italian Alliance for Sustainable Development) is a network of over 240 organisations, aiming at promoting awareness on the importance of the UN’s Agenda 2030 and at involving civil society, economic entities, and the institutions in order to achieve set sustainable development objectives.
Fondazione Edoardo Garrone has always promoted the social, economic and cultural development of local areas and communities, empowering the new generations to become real drivers of change. In this respect, the Foundation’s activity is perfectly in line with the Alliance’s mission.

Local areas and communities are at the very heart of Fondazione Garrone’s projects, aiming at making the younger generations the driving force of Italy’s sustainable, social, economic, and cultural development.
Objective 12:
Through the ReStartApp and ReStartAlp projects, Fondazione Edoardo Garrone sustains the development of new production and consumption models. The goal is to boost a mountain economy that is sustainable, i.e. friendly for the people, friendly for the environment, and capable of creating the most fruitful synergies between them.
Objective 13:
Environmental sustainability and raising the new generations’ awareness on the future of our planet are the core objectives of all of Fondazione Edoardo Garrone’s educational and training projects.
Objective 15:
The companies founded as a result of the ReStartApp and ReStartAlp projects are committed to the sustainable management of the land and of the local resources, as well to the preservation and valorisation of mountain ecosystems.
Objective 17:
Fondazione Edoardo Garrone implements its projects in cooperation with an increasingly large network of public and private partners, integrating and systematising complementary and synergic knowledge and skills to achieve long-term, sustainable, higher-quality objectives having a far-reaching social impact.
