Project “Territorial Network of Naples: building the sustainable future of the territory together”.

Rut Foundation has started, with the technical support of Variazioni s.r.l, a research project which sees the involvement of 15 companies in Campania production sector and its collaborators with the aim of giving life to the permanent Social Laboratory, a space through which participating companies will be able to co-design functional responses with other stakeholders:
  • The well-being of people;
  • The development of the territory;
  • The competitiveness of companies on the market.

The starting point of the project is the need to identify and understand the needs of employees and their families, and therefore of companies, to arrive at the development of a proposal that can promote social cohesion in the territory of the City of Naples, and create a generative and inclusive territorial welfare system – also through the involvement of the local productive fabric.
