Since 2023, the Cultures and Mission (CAM) in Turin has been a meeting point for diverse cultures.

Fabio Malesa, head of the CAM, explains how this cultural center, run by the Missionaries of Consolata, promotes inclusion by breaking down physical, economic, and communicative barriers. Through accessible programs and a wide range of social, cultural, and educational activities, CAM is building a bridge between Turin and the rest of the world.
