Hi everyone, in Italy we sent the letter to the President of Republic, the Ministries of Weelfare, Health and Education and to every national and regional organization and istitution important for social educators. As you know, in Italy the profession is recognized only in Health Area as EDUCATORE PROFESSIONALE and is not more recognized in Social Field....This why in Social Field are not professionals recognized at all. ANEP, the National Association of Social Educator, is hardly involved and fight for the full recognization of our profession both in social and helth field. Stay in contact, we need help from all european and international educators!

Nosotros preparamos con retraso el Día Mundial de la Educación Social pero nuestra idea es simple y ha funcionado otros años, traer un ponente de prestigio que "nos ilumine" en relación al futuro de esta ilusionante profesión. Otro mundo es posible.
