GianoOnlus

Giano Onlus is an Italian nonprofit association dedicated to promoting a more informed, supportive culture of aging. Its central idea is that later life should not be defined only by frailty or dependence: older people’s experience can be a resource and an opportunity for society, while younger generations benefit from connection with the past. The association brings together volunteer professionals, including doctors, social workers, psychologists, physiotherapists, and educators, to support older adults experiencing vulnerability and their families.

Giano Onlus focuses on social support, health-related assistance, disability prevention, and good care practices, aiming to serve as a direct point of reference for social and health concerns. It also promotes learning and public awareness through cultural activities and the arts, including music, cinema, theatre, visual arts, and modern communication. Its stated areas of work include training and culture, and its listed projects include cultural evenings and an initiative concerning older adults and pediatrics; the website describes these projects as in preparation.
