DireFareBaciare

Direfarebaciare is an umbrella organisation representing the Youth Centres of the City of Turin, bringing together 18 cultural organisations—including associations and cooperatives—that have long served as hubs for identity, artistic incubation, and community gathering. These Youth Centres and their managing organisations vary in nature, size, and structure, reflecting the diversity of Turin’s neighbourhoods and communities.

The organisation’s primary goal is to promote and strengthen the role of Youth Centres, coordinate large-scale initiatives beyond the scope of individual centres—whether at the city-wide, regional, national, or international level—and serve as a liaison with the City administration, providing support and guidance to its members.

As a city-wide network, Direfarebaciare offers training and capacity-building opportunities, fostering collaboration between different territories and uniting diverse and complementary experiences. Through its efforts, it promotes youth empowerment, autonomy, professional development, and civic responsibility, generating inclusion and collective participation across multiple disciplines and fields of cultural engagement.
