In our center (Ostello di Sermugnano) all guests are involved in the practice of "Service and Care", a daily activity through which they proactively support the management of the venue, the learning process, the group and their own well-being. Everyday tasks like cleaning, gardening, washing up, kitchen support are shared by participants, as part of a "sustainable living" experience, which has the aim of strengthening the group, educating to sustainability and exercising both community building and individual and collective responsibility.

We have developed a series of activities for community engagement, where volunteers and youth workers are going in the neighborhoods to talk and to inform the people directly, they are organising activities to colect the needs of the community, they are organising donations campaigns and open calls for local volunteers.

The objectives of these community engagement activities are:
- the community to get informed and to take part in the activities organised for them;
- the community to bring their own ideas of activities, so that we can implement them together;
- the community to get involved in maintaining and developing the youth spaces (youth house and youth centres).

We have open call for non-formal youth groups. That is the moment when young people have a chance to implement their ideas and change the local community for better. Organisation of educational field trips is also helpful for youngsters to get involved and learn more about ecology and sustainability habits.
On a yearly basis we make national awards ceremony for the biggest pollutants and biggest eco friendly individuals, companies or firms. That event is always in the peak of media focus, so it is rising awareness but also encouraging good initiatives.
