training

There are various expressions that define training: learning, knowledge, skills, open new horizons, challenge new perspectives. And still, learn by playing, representations, curiosity, experience, awareness, respect, dignity.

"again and again the individual case turns out to be unimportant, but the possibility of each individual case discloses something about the essence of the world…" (Wittgenstein, Tractatus logico-philosophicus,1961)

These words define my philosophy: every situation as well as each person have dignity by itself, while their meanings deserve to be explored under an holistic approach.

Children remind us that we learnt the most part when we were unskilled, when we were young. Recalling this knowledge is basic to foster the ability to learn by playing, to challenge difficulties, to learn and develop innovative solutions.

The group dimension favors the intimacy and the sharing between people in order to increase own awareness, new skills and new competences.

During my training sessions, independently to the issue at stake, I always try to foster the creation of some inner space to include the pure beauty of learning and the consciousness of living.

To meet the need to open up new ways and possibilities for analysis, critics, disposability to what is other and what belongs to others, in 2006 I created Multipolis. It is a role-play addressed to professionals, students and anyone working in the social field as well as to everyone who is interested to experience what's behind social, education, pedagogical, psychological themes through a self-experience of the differences inside the relation-of-care.

In my training sessions I am always focused to foster the dimension and the meanings of the relational dynamics in which the other person is always intended as an individual before being a patient, a user or a client. The protected setting allow to deepen into a logical space where participants can challenge themselves and feel what is really happening within the relation itself.

I work as a trainer and conductor of group-work sessions for Eu and national federations, foundations, training centre, municipalities and NGOs active in combating social exclusion and in promoting equal opportunities for all.
