Tesfa / Progetto Continenti
Progetto Continenti is a Rome-based nonprofit founded in 1989. It works in settings marked by poverty and social fragility, supporting long-term development with local partners. In Italy, it also runs global citizenship education and public awareness activities. Its approach rests on three pillars. First, it backs self-development, so communities lead their own progress. Second, it builds partnerships with local organizations and institutions, strengthening them so projects continue after outside support ends. Third, it involves beneficiaries from the start, so people help define goals, plans, and actions, not only join later.
