Three days dedicated to skills, discussion, and the responsibility of community governance. From Friday, November 13th to Sunday, November 15th , the second edition of the Training School for Young Administrators (under 40) promoted by the Council of Local Authorities of Sardinia (CAL) will be held at the Hotel Rodia (Viale Repubblica) in Oristano .
"In recent years, the responsibilities of mayors, councilors, and councilors have grown, so CAL considers training a priority," emphasized President Ignazio Locci . "With the School, we want to offer young administrators skills they can apply in their daily work and an opportunity to engage with those facing similar problems in other municipalities. We want to help them more forcefully represent the needs of their communities in dialogue with the Region and other institutions, and translate them into concrete decisions and interventions."
The program includes in-depth studies on civic engagement, Sardinia's autonomy, and the relationship between municipalities and the Region, with particular attention to financial issues.
Ample space will be dedicated to European funds, the implementation of the 2021-2027 ERDF and ESF+ programmes, and the prospects for the 2028-2034 programming period.
There's also room for climate change adaptation, the opportunities of artificial intelligence for local governments, and youth engagement in institutions.
The final day will be dedicated to speeches by mayors and administrators on the topic of "demography, birth rate, and depopulation."
On the opening day, a speech (via video link) by the Minister for Public Administration, Paolo Zangrillo, is scheduled to address the role of local authorities as the driving force of the country.
