Cooperativa Shannara
SHANNARA is a no for profit organization born in
1996 as Utopia Ilaria.
As territorial association ,we turn in the assistance &
of young people. SHANNARA since 1996 handles two
residential communities which guest young girls &
young men, with different ethnicity aged 12/21 ,
assigned by the order of the Italian Judge Court.
In the most of cases, these girls & boys are moved
from their families because of different and various
measures, mainly because of family/environment
discomforts, abused, learning abilities, poorness etc.
Against smuggling & human trafficking
Then Shannara takes care about the young people who
come in Italy trough illegal channel of human trafficking
from East Europe & Africa.
We follow this young to recapture rights & dignity through
educational training & psychological support.
SHANNARA develops a cultural promotion, on his own and in
cooperation with local (private and public) organizations &
international ones through projects, studied to compare and
to face: ideas, thoughts , suggestions, advice. We deal with
the topic of cultural diversity, norms and values, culture,
discrimination, prejudice, inclusion/exclusion by the help of
outdoor games ( ludobus ), art street workshops, theatre &
music seminars.
All these actions are acted to reflect critically about personal
and cultural identity, to gain a greater understanding of
cultural diversity in different local and national realities & to
better understand concepts which relate to the themes of
cultural diversity, such as stereotypes, prejudice, culture etc.
Girls & boys from Shannara’ s organization, students from
domestic schools, educators , leaders & youth workers are
all involved in these projects.
The focus is based on the expressive forms like: social
outdoor/ indoor games, music, dance, painting, graphic arts,
photography, the so called “ non-formal education “ .
“The real voyage of discovery consists not seeking new lands,
but in having new eyes”
The executive staff is composed of educators & voluntaries
from 22 to 45,each one with specific professional qualifications.
The older management team ( the legal members ) monitor
them through seminars & meetings with specialists like
psychologists & sociologists.
The latter follow young & team up on the way. In the
professional team ,we have layers, doctors, social workers &
different kind of non – formal educators who gave their
contribution to the community in many cases as voluntaries.
