CoorDown is an association that has been working to protect the rights of people with Down syndrome since 1987, promoting inclusion in school, work, sports and social life.

For World Down Syndrome Day 2021 CoorDown launched "The Hiring Chain", a campaign to promote the inclusion of people with Down syndrome in the world of work, which went viral and was recognized with awards at major festivals around the world. Thanks to #hiringchain, hiring and training internships have been kickstarted across Italy. The funds raised will go to support the hiring chain and new job placement projects for people with Down syndrome.
