SUMMARY
The initiative aims to support the integration pathway of unaccompanied foreign minors and young people from around the world who are exiting reception and protection systems in Genoa. In particular, it seeks to ensure continuity of the socio-legal support desk for unaccompanied foreign minors and young adults within this space, in connection with the follow-up of mentoring pathways for young people from around the world, and the activation of a permanent training mechanism for guardians and mentors of unaccompanied foreign minors and young migrants.
