This is the main activity of the Foundation: international integration without competition, by respecting each cultural identiy. Each weekly workshop has a peculiar subject in one specific cultural field (architecture, urban, economy, music, history, comics and others).
To each students' workshop is required the participation of minimum 3, maximum 5 faculties coming from different countries, each of them represented by maximum 8 students accompanied by one professor.
Each workshop is made up by 3 different phases:
1) BEFORE the workshop: each group of university students from a different country must prepare a preliminary work, to be presented in Florence to all the other students participating and to be delivered to the Foundation
2) DURING the workshop in Florence: there will be formed different mixed groups of students (in each group there will be a representative from each university); each student will co-operate with his own international group to present a final work at the end of the week
3) AFTER the workshop: once coming back home, each national group of university students will prepare a final version of the project, according to the international experience and knowledge received during their stay in Florence; the Foundation will receive the final works within 60 days and prize the best work.
The difference between BEFORE and AFTER represents the result of the Foundation's activity; in other words the contribution to the spreading among youth of the principles of respect of each cultural identity and their valorisation: for "a past to know together, a common future to build". Professors are supervisor of this evolution.
FINAL REMARKS: students' taking part to the workshops of the Foundation are free accommodated thanks to the kind co-operation of the Florence Vivahotels Fleming (3 stars); Fleming Youth could offer alternative accommodation solution at rebated fares.
