RED Nova – Connecting Actions, Defending Rights – ONLUS, in collaboration with local partners, activates programs aimed at the inclusion of individuals facing socio-economic, educational, and housing vulnerabilities. Since its establishment as the country office of the international NGO Danish Refugee Council, the organization has developed and implemented significant technical capacity in mobilizing financial resources at both national and international levels, supporting local partners’ projects and joint initiatives.

This has enabled the implementation of activities focused on Protection, Health, Inclusion, and Empowerment of the most vulnerable segments of both Italian and foreign populations residing in Piedmont, Liguria, Friuli-Venezia Giulia, and in international contexts.

Specifically, interventions carried out with local partners include:

• Humanitarian support, guidance, legal support, and linguistic-cultural mediation for people with migratory backgrounds;
• Socio-health assistance and orientation for accessing care for migrants and people experiencing social exclusion;
• Reception and socio-educational support for vulnerable migrants (minors, unaccompanied foreign minors, women victims of trafficking, individuals with mental or physical health challenges);
• Support for housing inclusion of people with migratory backgrounds.

The projects, implemented in the border areas of Northern Italy (Oulx, Ventimiglia, and Trieste), the Piedmont Region, and the City of Turin, are effectively carried out thanks to the strengthening of capacities and exchange of technical expertise with local actors—both public and private. This collaboration ensures the achievement of shared goals and the efficient and respectful use of limited available funds.

In this way, RED Nova Onlus combines high levels of quality in joint project management with an innovative approach that reduces administrative costs to support local development. This enables Civil Society Organizations and local actors to carry out high-impact social projects, benefiting not only the target communities of the activities but the broader public as well.
