The Common Good
of Building Community

Since 1976, we have been building welcoming communities, promoting rights, and supporting paths toward autonomy. In Calabria and across the South, we work alongside individuals and local areas to transform vulnerabilities and inequalities into opportunities for change.

Our way of building community

"Community is not a place; it is a way of being together.
It is the daily choice to care for one another."

James Panizza
Founder of Comunità Progetto Sud

Treatment

We stand by people during times of vulnerability, offering services, a listening ear, and a tangible presence.

Rights

We work so that dignity, autonomy and participation do not remain words, but become real possibilities.

Community

We build connections among individuals, families, volunteers, institutions, and communities, so that no one changes alone.

OUR STORIES

Ousman: from a story of being welcomed to a choice of active participation.

Ousman arrived at Luna Rossa at a very young age. Over time, he studied, underwent training, and began to build his own independence. Today, he is an Italian citizen working as a linguistic-cultural mediator and community worker—in a setting he knows well, having experienced it firsthand. It is a career path shaped by his experiences, relationships, and daily life—a journey that illustrates how the act of welcoming can evolve into active participation, commitment, and a sense of responsibility.

5 seconds for 1,000 projects: Let’s build open and welcoming societies together.

Your 5×1000 contribution becomes active participation.

Allocating your “5×1000” to Comunità Progetto Sud means supporting services, initiatives, and projects that originate within local communities and grow alongside the people who live there.

It is a tangible way to help build communities that are more open and welcoming—communities capable of recognizing everyone’s rights. Leaving no one behind.

Join us in building communities where everyone plays a leading role in the common good.
