In Europe, through training, education, information and awareness-raising, and in the Developing Countries through direct support for local development processes, ProgettoMondo Mlal has tested in every case with those directly concerned the different ways of becoming a useful concrete instrument in the democratization processes. In the firm belief that globalization of the economy goes hand in hand with the globalization of human rights and of the opportunities for peoples to become protagonists.
ProgettoMondo Mlal has therefore chosen to act not only as an agent for change but above all as a vehicle for exchanges among peoples and to provide an opportunity for "cointeressenza" ("profit-sharing") for the creation of new enterprises and future alliances.
These proposals are interpreted by the international volunteers and cooperators not only through their presence abroad but also by acting as a "natural bridge" between cultures for the growth of Italian civil society and the collective conscience.
The more than 850 Mlal cooperators get their strength above all from working alongside their respective local and Italian partners: indeed partnership is another ProgettoMondo Mlal key word, the leitmotiv of all its activities and the starting point for all those projects aimed at strengthening the local skills of groups or institutions in order to exert a greater influence over the improvement of development processes within the community.
For if the intervention is part of local development policies, this facilitates synergies, possible multiplier effects and the spread of best practices.
Whether within the context of a food/agriculture project, or a town-planning, economic or educational project, ProgettoMondo Mlal always adds to the word "development" the adjective sustainable.
This means that care is always taken to ensure that each development proposal is able to stand on its own feet and has a future.
ProgettoMondo Mlal is active in a number of different thematic areas: defence of human rights and social promotion (with particular focus on minorities and womens' issues); environmental protection and food safety; eco-sustainable agricultural development; professional training, business startup and job creation; protection of children at risk and defence of the right to education of children and teenagers.
The places where ProgettoMondo Mlal works are Latin America, North, Sub-Saharan and Southern Africa and, as a consequence, the whole of Italy and Europe.
