The bond between Giffoni and the world of school is very strong: the common ground is represented by young generations, children, boys and girls.
Movie Days, School Experience, 16 modi di dire ciao and Giffoni in a Day: different projects addressed to students and teachers with the aim of giving young people the opportunity to discover themselves trough cinema. In the last years, the focus has been the fight against cultural poverty. A work carried out in collaboration with the third sector, the voluntary sector, trying to contain early school leaving.
Giffoni and school represent a cultural facility that, thanks to a constant collaboration, try to create a network of relationships and activities able to contribute to the education and the growth of young people, citizens that are increasingly aware of the present and the future that awaits them.
— School Experience —
School Experience is the itinerant festival organized by Giffoni and realized under the Cinema National Plan and Immagini per la Scuola, promoted by the Minister of Culture and The Minister of Education and Merit. Thousands of young people – from 3 to 18 years old – along with their teachers, are protagonists with this initiative of meetings, labs and screenings in five different regions: Campania, Calabria, Lazio, Basilicata and Sardinia.
— 16 modi di dire Ciao —
Sedici Modi di Dire Ciao is the project conceived and realized by the Ente Autonomo Giffoni Experience, selected by the social enterprise Con I Bambini, under the Fund for the fight against the child educational poverty. Five regions selected, over 500 personalities from the educational community and more than 5 thousand youths involved in the activities that, for four years, will create a solid educational path able to connect the regions of Campania, Calabria, Basilicata, Sardinia and Veneto.
— Giffoni in a Day —
A day as a giffoner, or rather, a day in Giffoni with teachers and classmates: this is the new format dedicated to school, created to condense the whole festival experience and share it with thousands of students from all Italy. Giffoni in a Day is cinema, but not only that! Labs, workshops, discussions with talent and ambassadors, but also three different modules to choose from: I love cinema, Planet Earth and Whomi.
