What it is and how it works

The Universal Civil Service offers young people aged 18 to 28 the opportunity to dedicate a year of their lives to a solidarity commitment, with a strong educational and training value; an opportunity for active citizenship education and a precious tool to help the weakest sections of society by contributing to the social, cultural and economic development of one's country.

The sectors of intervention in Italy and abroad are:

• assistance
• civil protection
• environmental heritage and urban redevelopment
• historical, artistic and cultural heritage
• education and promotion of culture, landscape, environment, sport, sustainable and social tourism
• agriculture in mountain areas, social agriculture and biodiversity
• promotion of peace between peoples, non-violence and unarmed defence; promotion and protection of human rights; development cooperation; promotion of Italian culture abroad and support for Italian communities abroad
