Associazione Francesco Realmonte Onlus was founded in 2009 in collaboration with the Catholic University of the Sacred Heart in Milan with the aim of promoting values ​​of solidarity and equality, with particular attention to the right to study and training.

We believe that the individual has the strength to overcome difficulties by finding to his/her own inner and outer resources. This skill is called resilience.

Along with physical rehabilitation and the satisfaction of basic needs, we believe it is essential to work on rebuilding the social fabric and people's everyday lives within their communities in order to nurture conditions of psychological and emotional well-being.

Through training courses and laboratories prepared by RIRES, the Catholic University Resilience Research Center, we lead the individual on a journey of resilience in order to transform pain into a new starting point.

We carry out international cooperation projects in developing countries and operate in the Milan area with listening, reception and training projects for young political refugees and victims of forced migration.
