Fondazione Ambienta

Fondazione Ambienta is an Italian foundation dedicated to promoting respect for the environment and practical ways to reconcile industrial development with environmental responsibility. Its work focuses on environmental education, energy conservation, recycling, waste management, water use and reducing harmful emissions. The foundation develops learning projects for schools, helping young people understand sustainability through age-appropriate activities and practical investigations.

Its programs include Futuro, an environmental education course for secondary school students; Tondo come il mondo, a course for primary school classes that has been offered in schools since 2010; and Impronta Futura, a school-to-work training pathway in which older secondary students measure their school’s carbon footprint. The foundation also shares news and educational initiatives, and invites companies and individuals to support its work through donations or Italy’s 5×1000 tax contribution. Through its projects, Fondazione Ambienta seeks to build environmental awareness and encourage informed, responsible choices among students, teachers and the wider community.
