"Young people do not need sermons, young people need examples of honesty, of coherence, of altruism.”. This sentence of Sandro Pertini was the slogan that accompanied the round table of the CISL Giovani project in Naples entitled “Let's start again from the young people for the future of the territory” which was held Friday October 1, at the monumental complex of Sant'Anna dei Lombardi, within the General Council of the UST CISL of Naples.
The event was attended by the CISL General Secretary, Luigi Barra, of the Secretary of CISL Campania, Doriana Buonavita, of the General Secretary of CISL Naples, Gianpiero Tipaldi, and the Provincial Secretary of CISL Naples Melia Comberiati. The PITER project was also present, represented for the occasion by the newly elected baby Mayor of the Sanità District, Emmanuel Improta.
During the event, we discussed young people, the engine of every human society that bets on the possibilities of innovation and regeneration. The issue of employment is the biggest problem that affects young people in our country. The centrality of work represents the main means of social integration and citizenship.
To break the chain that links crime and underdevelopment there is only one way, that of working together to fight social and territorial inequalities, creating infrastructures, social and digital materials that give young people full dignity.
Speaking, the General Secretary of the Cisl, Luigi Sbarra, said that “The inclusion of young people and women in the labor market is a priority that concerns the entire country and in particular our South. The resources of the PNRR must be aimed at this great objective, to respond to an emergency of social justice and an urgency of development and cohesion [...] It is about creating new and good jobs, but also relaunching all educational agencies, family, school, training institutes, to combat cognitive poverty, start new generative paths of active citizenship. Public and private companies must start hiring again. And they must look for qualified, well-professionalized profiles, to be permanently contracted".
And it is precisely to give a voice to young people that the participation of the newly elected baby Mayor of the Rione Sanità, Emmanuele Improta, was strongly desired. In his heartfelt speech he underlined the needs of the neighborhood, focusing on the situation that young people live daily, and on the risks they constantly run in the streets and squares: "There –said the baby mayor- we don't have protected places where we can gather to play or just talk to each other, we don't have a cinema, there are no equipped playgrounds. Schools need ordinary and extraordinary work. The streets and squares we frequent need periodic maintenance”. And, in conclusion, the young Emmanuele highlighted the great desire of the young people of the Rione Sanità of Naples: the redevelopment of the San Gennaro Park.
The baby mayor's speech teaches us that to do great things you don't necessarily have to be great. Let's give children a voice, let's give them the opportunity to confront those who have the duty to decide on work, on life, on cities. Children are the future, but they are also our present, let's give them the right space so that as Emmanuele stated "we can all get out of the forest together".
