The ECOINSPIRE LAB ETS association participated in the 10th edition of the Sociology Festival, held in Narni on October 10 and 11, 2025, dedicated to the theme "Feeling part of society. Attention, care, and sustainability."
The Festival, promoted and organized by the University of Perugia – Department of Philosophy, Social Sciences, Humanities, and Education, in collaboration with the Municipality of Narni, represents one of the main national events dedicated to dialogue between academia, institutions, businesses, third sector organizations, and citizens, to reflect on social transformations and new models of sustainability.
At the Manini Theater, in Narni, ECOINSPIRE LAB ETS participated in the closing round table of the Festival, "People, Businesses, Care, and Environmental Sustainability," organized in collaboration with Confapi and INAPP. The meeting, coordinated by Sabina Curti, director of the Festival, with an introduction by Michele Marinelli (CONFAPI) and Fabio Santini (University of Perugia), featured presentations by Sabina Polidori (INAPP), Giorgio Scavino, and Maurizio Angeli Felicioni for ECOINSPIRE LAB ETS.
It was a rich and stimulating moment of discussion, where different experiences and perspectives intertwined to reflect on how citizens and businesses can collaborate to build a more sustainable future, based on care, responsibility, and social innovation.
Participation in the Festival represented an important opportunity for ECOINSPIRE LAB ETS to share its playful and educational approach and the activities it promotes in support of the ecological transition, inclusion, and territorial sustainability.

The ETS ECOINSPIRE LAB has developed an innovative, playful, educational approach based on an interactive dashboard, designed to facilitate understanding and participatory learning of the principles of energy transition and territorial cooperation.
This method was applied in the first edition of the "Practical Guide in 7 Steps and 21 Sub-Activities for Building and Developing Renewable Energy Communities: Tools and Resources for Implementing and Managing Sustainable Energy Initiatives," published in March 2025 as part of the European COMANAGE project, edited by ANCI Lazio and the Chamber of Commerce of Rieti and Viterbo, with the support of the "Centro Italia" Special Agency. The approach was successfully tested during the workshops dedicated to Renewable Energy Communities held on May 29, 2025, in Viterbo, and on June 24, 2025, in Rieti, involving local administrators, technicians, and representatives of the local economic fabric.

This intervention will explore the opportunity of creating synergies between projects and specifically for the use of the results of the innovative Universal Model for Hybrid and Digital Internships "DIM4HE," also developed thanks to funding from the Erasmus+ programme. The model presents itself as a precious resource, offering students, host organizations and Higher Education Institutes themselves targeted guidance to raise the quality of the internship experience. In this context, the ECOINSPIRE Lab Association has played a decisive role in enhancing the interactivity of the model, thus contributing to enhancing the best exploitation of the tool.
