Sansepolcro, 7 December 1996
I willingly participated in this event because I believe that we will come out of it with encouragement to be peacemakers and to be able to appreciate the sacrifice that many make to be workers of solidarity and justice in everyday life. The meaning of this celebration is somewhat to exalt some figures who, certainly, not only spoke, but above all gave their lives for the realization of this very high ideal, which is that of peace. Very high ideal, but also quite evanescent: I believe that working for peace means first of all, making some awareness, making commitments that lead us to be able, day by day, in all the events that touch us, or strike us, to discern an appeal to peace, understood as a right but also as a duty. An awareness that also leads us to see not so much theoretically (not because I am not a lover of theory), but concretely the relationships, the interdependence that exists between us and the phenomena of injustice and inequality. Phenomena, these, which lead us to verify the situation of non-peace that exists in our society and in the world.
Becoming aware of the close dependence that exists between us and others means understanding that peace depends on everyone and certainly that peace cannot be made with slogans. We must know how to promote a culture of peace that depends on discerning the history we are living. That is, it means entering into the events of history, of this era in order to be able to see responsibility in a negative and positive sense. Responsibilities that affect us directly and, from this awareness, from this discernment, the culture of peace is born, that is, the culture of dialogue, the culture of relationships. It is not classical culture, made up of notions or theses, which also serves to increase sensitivity in us, but that knowledge of historical experiences and a historical heritage that becomes a point of reference for everyone. It is enough to spend a few hours here in Sansepolcro to see how this cultural and historical heritage that can be read in this city is essential for promoting a humanistic culture on Man. However, we must also take into account that we are the ones who are the supporters and promoters of a culture. I intend this as a basis for being able to make our life a life that is dedicated in the most radical way possible to the service of others. I believe that peace does not yet exist, because there is not this culture of knowing how to see in others, not an enemy, an adversary, a person to be destroyed, but the same dignity that I defend in myself, seeing my own same rights. We spoke earlier about this large assembly organized by the UN in Rome. Here it was imagined to define eating as a right: I use this word because there are people who cannot eat, perhaps even in our towns, in our cities, increasingly in Rome for example. Americans have not agreed to define eating and nourishment as a human right. So I want to say that probably our commitment that was born this evening, and today is nourished and encouraged, is precisely this becoming aware that the Other different from me has the same rights that I have: the right to work, to respect, to integration and I would say, to culture, the right to respect for its cultural, religious and social identity. In this we have forgotten that the Constitution also made the recognition of rights a commitment to guaranteeing the rights themselves.
It seems to me that some in parliament are working to avoid continuing to declare that work is everyone's right, that culture is everyone's right: some argue that the Constitution cannot continue to declare this. We know that even if stated, many rights are violated on a daily basis. Politics is less and less available to guarantee the rights that are written down. But perhaps these rights are written too high to avoid banging our heads and I would say that every day we should bang our heads where these fundamental rights are not only not guaranteed but, even, we want to give up recognizing them for the future. I think there are concrete examples where the commitment to spreading the culture of peace is needed: I am not just referring to immigration into our country which brings cultural and religious differences between us, different identities which are also cultural riches. If we become aware of this richness we can defeat fear which is the opposite of peace. Because fear foments violence. We are peacemakers: but what happened in the Senate and then in Parliament after the declaration or promise to regularize 240,000 immigrants who had applied, that is, the proposal of vacatio legis which would have been the shame of the Italian State towards many countries considered developing? We are far from being promoters of peace when we talk about these differences if they cause us to change our mentality. In our country I have seen many people who say they belong to the left-wing culture and then they rage on this issue of immigration and then, we no longer know what the left-wing culture is and we can no longer understand what it means wedding ring. When others who are different from me are not accepted, then I cannot continue to say that I want peace. Where social differences and above all cultural, ethnic and religious differences are not accepted as an asset, they cause a challenge to solidarity, a commitment to participation in the common good which is always the good of each and all. And I return to Rome encouraged by the testimony that today is rewarded in the noblest sense of the word, because I believe that we who witness this celebration of the awarding of an award are more rewarded than those who receive it. Because this presentation of an award has nothing rhetorical: it simply has the motivation to say that we need witnesses like them, to make the world a more peaceful world, that is, more just and more supportive.

โSituations of social imbalance, areas of marginalization and urban desolation, represent a permanent threat to peace. The very discomfort of many young people and adolescents, those most affected by social and family disintegration, already constitutes a sort of powder keg that threatens our urban coexistence."
Father Luigi Di Liegro
Work to protect mental health of the Community represents a complex objective which cannot be achieved only with the improvement of social norms, values and practices, but which also requires actions that make known and create participation in the condition of "mental distress" which, out of fear, too frequently results in difficulty to accept.
The training intervention: "SOS Families: new needs and resources in mental health" highlights some of the possible protection actions to be implemented, as emerges from the analysis of family situations, schools and public services dedicated to this topic . The responsibility of contributing to the balanced mental development of the members of a community is entrusted first and foremost to families and parents who with their behaviors support the mental and physical health of their children. It is then necessary for the institutions to place mental health as one of the investment priorities for the implementation of policies that favor the development of an inclusive society, free from discrimination and violence. For its part, the School must be ready to immediately identify the actions to be implemented in the event of assessments of distress among children and adolescents. Last but not least, citizens must be able to contribute through volunteering to the reception and inclusion of the most vulnerable people.

Great participation at yesterday's event at the Pontifical Gregorian University of Rome at the meeting "From the pandemic to war: physical and emotional marginalization. The impact on the territory as told by the media", which saw a succession of prominent figures on the current scene, experts industry and mental health professionals.
The critical issues generated by the years of the pandemic and the difficulties of the economic situation linked to the conflict in Ukraine have brought the issue of mental health and isolation back to the fore, which has especially affected young people. Many topics were addressed and risk factors highlighted at various levels within a multidisciplinary and stimulating discussion for speakers and listeners.
The event was possible thanks to the funding of LazioCrea, Lazio Region, on a public notice dedicated to the Municipalities of Lazio and private bodies for cultural, social and tourism initiatives in the territory of the Lazio Region. LAZIOCrea Spa Annualita 2022 interventions.

"Dalla pandemia alla guerra: emarginazione fisica ed emotiva. Lโimpatto sul territorio raccontato dai mediaโ 1ยฐdicembre 2022 ore 15.30, Pontificia Universitร Gregoriana Piazza della Pilotta 4 - Roma
La pandemia prima, la guerra in Ucraina ora. Dalle relazioni sociali alla salute, dallo squilibrio emotivo allโemergenza umanitaria ed economica, continuiamo ad assistendo a una profonda trasformazione della societร per come sino ad oggi lโabbiamo conosciuta. Ma non ne riusciamo a definire ancora gli impatti sulle persone, mentre siamo passati da unโemergenza sanitaria a una umanitaria. Eventi drammatici che hanno portato a nuove e pesanti conseguenze sociali, di cui spesso riusciamo solo a intuire i contorni.
Cosa sarร delle decine di migliaia di cittadini ucraini che hanno cercato accoglienza presso i propri parenti in Italia? Qual รจ lo stato di salute mentale di bambini e adolescenti, appena usciti da due anni di didattica a distanza, di socialitร ridotta, di fronte al significato e agli effetti della parola โguerraโ e della morte, entrate improvvisamente nel quotidiano di ognuno? Come stiamo reagendo al bombardamento dellโโinfodemiaโ, prima sanitaria e poi bellica, cioรจ quella quantitร eccessiva di informazioni, talvolta non accurate, che rendono difficile orientarsi su un determinato argomento? Quali conseguenze ha avuto lโisolamento del lockdown sugli emarginati e quali lโaumento del costo dei beni di consumo sui nuovi poveri? Quali sono le iniziative politiche da adottare perchรฉ nessuno rimanga indietro?
Sono alcune delle domande cui vogliamo rispondere con il convegno al quale parteciperanno, giornalisti, psichiatri e personaggi delle istituzioni: Alessio DโAmato, Assessore alla Sanitร e integrazione socio sanitario, Prof. Giuseppe Carlo Ricciardi Universitร di Pavia, Dott. Alessandro Vento Osservatorio sulle dipendenze e sui disturbi psichici sottosoglia, Prof.ssa Elisa Giomi Associata in Sociologia dei processi culturali e comunicativi -Universitร degli Studi Roma Tre, Preside Tiziana Sallusti Dirigente Scolastico Liceo Statale Terenzio Mamiani di Roma, Dott. Pierfrancesco Demilito Responsabile Comunicazione Protezione Civile.
Nel corso dellโevento sarร assegnato il โPremio Don Luigi Di Liegro per il giornalismo e la ricerca socialeโ.
Il Premio โPremio Don Luigi Di Liegro per il giornalismo e la ricerca socialeโ intende dare un riconoscimento a giornalisti, scrittori e ricercatori che abbiano raccontato e descritto il mutamento della realtร sociale. Persone che abbiano manifestato, con le loro opere, il desiderio di fare al meglio il proprio lavoro e, insieme, una carica etica genuina e appassionata, lontana dallโideologia, ma anche dal cinismo. Persone, che sappiano individuare e descrivere aspetti della realtร poco rappresentati โ e in particolar modo i luoghi di confine, le zone dโombra, le contraddizioni e i margini della realtร sociale, tanto piรน importante alla luce degli eventi attuali. Una riflessione che puรฒ rivelarsi utile soprattutto per le istituzioni che devono rispondere alle esigenze sociali.
Il premio intende riconoscere il lavoro di chi ha come primo interlocutore il lettore, il telespettatore, il radioascoltatore, ovvero quel cittadino che ha un crescente bisogno di democrazia, di servizi, di cultura, di autentica conoscenza dei fatti.

โYou are faced with people who have passed
from the ordeal of the mental hospital to the ordeal of those who get lost in the city.
And this brings us back to addressing the related social problems
to every form of marginalization and which are beyond psychiatry".
Father Luigi Di Liegro
The alert regarding psychological support for the most vulnerable people is high. In recent days, alarms have been raised by the main Italian Neuropsychiatry Departments regarding the increase in mental distress in very young people; the Authority for Children and Adolescents in collaboration with the Higher Institute of Health and the Ministry of Education has started a three-year research on the mental health of children and adolescents in the times of Covid-19 19; The United Nations has issued a warning, with the presentation of the report with guidelines on mental health and covid-19, urging member states to boost global actions for mental health. These are just some of the signs that demonstrate how the pandemic, despite ourselves, has shone a spotlight on the mental health of the population like never before.
Alongside those who today, due to the multiple direct and indirect effects of the pandemic, are experiencing psychological difficulties for the first time, there are also people and families for whom the new psycho-socio-economic difficulties have added to those that began well before March 2020. For many people, psychiatric illness can in fact be compared to a reality of poverty: on a personal level due to the loss of autonomy, social relationships and isolation resulting from the stigma that affects the patient and his family; on a social and economic level, due to the difficulty of having their human and citizenship rights recognized, the right to work, to live independently, to a life project in which they feel like protagonists of their own history.
Those who deal with mental health therefore know that the crisis arrived well before in a healthcare sector which, more than others, has been dealing for years with cuts in resources which affect the methods and times of access to services, the number of local structures, the management of psychiatric emergencies, the funds to be dedicated to rehabilitation activities psychosocial.
The National Mental Health Conference represents for all the actors involved in the discussion on mental health, a moment of exchange, assessment, reflection and proposal. And in this last year and a half more than ever, we have asked ourselves, with an attitude that here intends above all to be constructive and generative, whether the main actor in citizens' care pathways, our National Health System, has sufficient forces and resources to welcome and treat the growing wave of mental distress that began during the pandemic and which with reasonable certainty will continue to increase in the following months.
But the real question to ask is: MUST the public body do it alone?
The Covid-19 pandemic has dramatically highlighted that when resources, investments and a far-sighted and local health protection project, widespread throughout the territories, fail, health care becomes difficult, if not impossible. For mental health this is even more true.
We ask ourselves then, What can private social bodies, voluntary associations, user and family associations do to become supporters and guarantors of a model of territorial and community psychiatry?
We believe that third sector organizations can perform a decisive role in tackling problems where they arise, in the territories, combining the contribution of the public body with the other forces of civil society, the actors of informal assistance, in a dynamic of complementary value and which aims at the integration of multiple levels of intervention. This is the model that the Di Liegro Foundation proposes to promote integrated and coherent care systems in the community and in the territory
The Don Luigi Di Liegro Foundation has been operating in the field of mental health for over twenty years, collaborating with public and private institutions in the implementation of projects, activities and research aimed at promoting psychosocial well-being, the prevention of mental distress and the diffusion of culture and knowledge of mental health.
The Foundation's intervention programVolunteers and Families Networking for Mental Healthโ is divided into several activities. Among the main ones: training courses on mental health aimed at family members and volunteers to be involved in activities to support users inside and outside the services of the Mental Health Departments; family support groups; Information and orientation services for citizens; projects for the prevention and promotion of psychosocial well-being in schools; research activity.
There are many testimonies from users, family members, citizen volunteers and operators that the Foundation has collected over the course of its years of activity. Not least those of research ยซCare networks and mental distressยป carried out in recent years, which collected and compared the experiential knowledge of users, family members and associations with the professional knowledge of operators and managers of local centers and mental health departments of the entire city of Rome, for a total of over a thousand people interviewed.
From the evidence that emerged from our operational work and research work, the points for reflection emerge that the Foundation presents at the table "The role of user associations, family members and volunteers in mental health services" of the 2nd National Conference for Mental Health: โFor community mental healthโ.
THE PRINCIPLE OF HORIZONTAL SUBSIDIARITY SHOULD NOT BE UNDERSTOOD AS DELEGATION BUT AS VIRTUOUS CIRCULARITY in which each subject contributes by bringing their own experience and expertise. The world of volunteering and private social work cannot and does not want to replace the public body. An effective collaboration must be established between them that leads to the creation of a common good. It is where public service works well that volunteering can be a resource of inestimable value.
IMPLEMENT PROJECTS THAT PURSUIT EFFECTIVE SOCIAL HEALTH INTEGRATION TO SUPPORT RECOVERY PATHS MORE EFFECTIVELY. The role of the private social sector is fundamental in performing a hinge function between the public service and the territory, to offer greater opportunities to respond to the needs of work, home and social life. These are the needs that local services struggle most to guarantee.
PRIVILEGED ATTENTION TO THE YOUNG AGE GROUP: PREVENTION, EARLY INTERVENTION AND SERVICES DEDICATED TO CHILDREN, ADOLESCENCE AND YOUNG ADULTS. Collaborate with educational and socialization agencies to promote emotional and prosocial literacy activities with a view to prevention and education for psychological well-being. Using the peer education methodology and making the children the protagonists of the activities carried out with, by and for them. Training of non-healthcare figures, such as youth workers, who live young people in places of natural aggregation and can play the role of facilitators and liaison with services for the most vulnerable children.
TRAIN AND STRENGTHEN THE FIRST LINES OF INTERVENTION: FAMILY DOCTORS, SCHOOL STAFF, FAMILY COUNSELORS UNFORTUNATELY STILL MARGINAL ACTORS IN MENTAL HEALTH.

The Foundation is pleased to present the concert of Pinched Brigands, the musical group of our art therapy and socialization laboratory, in the prestigious setting of the Santa Cecilia Conservatory (via dei Greci, 18 - Rome).
THE Briganti Pizzicati will perform on February 14th at 7.00 pm. The choice of the date is not random, but evocative. The theme of the evening will be love, that love that manifests itself in care for yourself and others; care which means action, towards one's own (and others') psychosocial well-being.
There the true protagonist of the evening will be art and its material and immaterial value of care and inclusion. In addition to the music of Briganti Pizzicati, in collaboration with Music on the Way, there will be poetic and theatrical incursions, the result of the work carried out in other art therapy laboratories, with a view to a creative collaboration that highlights their technical rehabilitative value. There will also be the extraordinary performance by a high-level student of the Santa Cecilia Conservatory.
