Deskripsi

Heritage, protection, and responsibility are prerequisites and cornerstones for a research project conducted in the Berzantina primary school, part of the Comprehensive Institute of Porretta Terme, in the province of Bologna. It is a project to discover the local heritage, its care and protection to achieve awareness of the importance of taking responsibility as inhabitants and active citizens of a town. The project is based on the ancient establishments of the Terme Alte of Porretta, which, for years now, have been in a state of decline and abandonment. This project aims to introduce students to local history through direct, photographic, artistic, and filmographic testimonies. The idea is to combine the teaching of local history with the protection of the historical- artistic heritage, actively involving children as inhabitants of the area and above all as future citizens.
