Project title
Description of initiative
Aria - Architettura e Riabilitazione was born from the need to rethink the spaces of mental fragility (psychiatric residences, hospitals, semi-residential structure of mental health services), mostly conceived as places of marginality and isolation rather than spaces of rehabilitation and inclusion.
The project goals are:
- Humanization of mental health care settings;
- Intersectoral synergies between project culture and health (project scalability and new market opportunities);
- Networking, knowledge transfer;
- Bringing about cultural change (stigma reduction, social inclusion and re-employment).
