Love and respect for others as starting points for a happy life in which you can make your dreams come true.
March 8, a symbolic and extremely significant date, marks the beginning of the tenth edition of #noncifermanessuno, the motivational university tour of Luca Abete who, for the start of the 2024 campaign, chose the Faculty of Economics of the "Sapienza" University of Rome.
The place where everything began in 2014.
"It was a morning full of unforgettable moments. The hugs, the selfies and the desire to continue talking even after the end of the talk confirm that this format speaks the same language of a generation too often judged hastily. Stories of courage, of daily heroism, but also of fragility, of both academic and personal discomfort, a feeling of loneliness and mistrust for a future that some see as more difficult than ever. For this reason the claim of this edition "Let's learn to love each other" has received unanimous consensus. The revolution can also start again from a new vision of what is the strongest feeling: love".
A message also appreciated by the rector, Antonella Polimeni: "The theme of this edition is particularly significant and I am convinced that the experiences shared during this tour will be of inspiration and personal growth for our university community".
The surprise guest was Enzo Iacchett, who sent a clear message of encouragement: "If I told you about all my failures you wouldn't believe it. The first defeat is nothing, nor is the twentieth. The most important thing is to be aware of your own talent and cultivate it, without ever becoming discouraged".
March 8 was also an opportunity to turn the spotlight on the topic of rights and violence.
It was Beatrice Fraschini who spoke about it, who in 2019 was segregated and reduced to life by her ex-partner: «At the beginning I thought everything was normal, I ignored the alarm bells.
Healthy love - he said - is when you are free to be yourself.
Bond with those who love even your negative sides."
The #NonCiFermaNessuno Award, created by the 2.0 artisans of Polilop, created to enhance stories of university life, was an opportunity to learn about the experience of Agnese Zandoli, a student of oriental languages and visually impaired athlete specializing in the 400 and 800 metres.
«In difficulties I have never backed down.
I don't have a comfort zone - she said she - she, I have always questioned myself and I say to you: if I did it with my disability you can do it too."
Thanks to the Gioca & Dona call to action, and the Superfoody video game, created by the Mac group, the kids faced exciting challenges transforming the food collected from virtual to real thanks to the food donor LIDL Italia.
The meals collected at the end of the tour will be sent to the Food Bank.
The space dedicated to the Rivending project made it possible to address the very sensitive issue of plastic recycling as well as allowing bins to be placed next to the automatic drink vending machines present.
#NonCiFermaNessuno is also a permanent laboratory of the languages of communication.
The students were also protagonists in the production of multimedia content which will be published on the social platform and on the project's new web TV.
The Stabilo Cards were instead used to collect feedback from participants.
The song "Let's learn to love us" was presented in the classroom, produced by Ondesonore Records by Francesco Altobelli with EmilioMunda, and Leonardo Frezzotti aka "Fritz", voice of the song with Luca Abete.
The values of the tour also travel on the radio on the frequencies of R101, the official radio.
The social campaign boasts the medal of the President of the Republic, Sergio Mattarella, moral patronage from the Ministry of University and Research and, from this year, also the collaboration of the National Order of Psychologists. All updates will be present in the news section of the website www.noncifermanessuno.org and on the project's social platform.
