Our activities address the whole population, with a special attention to youth involvement. To this end, regular activities take place within schools and the main targets are: pupils in pre-primary, primary and secondary education, and school leaders and teachers. Apice has been promoting a wide range of events over the years in order to facilitate interaction between young people and European institutions. Recently the CIVES project, carried out by Apice in cooperation with Europe Direct Turin, has been specifically devoted to familiarize young students in Cuneo region (Piedmont) with values of solidarity in EU.
