How Citizens benefit
The citizens benefiting from the initiative have been involved in various significant ways. They made the facades of their homes available to the project and were involved in the construction of the works. For the rest, the concept and activities of the artistic program are designed to promote social inclusion. The final artworks will depict the whole Abruzzese Apennine region and its connections with the participants' cultures, fostering the recognition of European values and shared cultural traditions, and developing a sense of European citizenship, overcoming prejudices and social barriers.
The interaction between local and international participants through art aims to facilitate intercultural dialogue and social inclusion, with disabled individuals being in integral part of the artistic production process. The initiative includes a 15-day artistic residency where international and Italian and artists will be hosted in Aielli and in other Marsica’s historic villages for an immersive training and experiential program, leading to the creation of proposed artworks. Social inclusion is fundamental to the project, both artistically and through involving disabled individuals as tour operators. The administration supports real inclusion actions for disabled youth and elderly people with dementia. The ANFFAS Avezzano Foundation organizes an inclusive campus for young artists with disabilities to create visual art in Aielli, with roles such as tour guides and support staff in commercial activities. Achievements include engaging 70 associations, 30 educational institutions, 50 young people aged 18-35, 60 disabled individuals, and at least 30 public and private co-financing entities.

Methodology used
“Borgo Universo" initiative embodies an exemplary model of widespread sustainable territorial development, seamlessly integrating art, culture, and responsible tourism with the goal of socially including young and elderly individuals with cognitive impairments. Art and culture are powerful tools for promoting the green transition: art is not just an expressive medium but also a catalyst for change, capable of inspiring tangible actions and fostering new forms of ecological awareness.
The methodology that inspired Borgo Universo is participatory and inclusive, addressing the needs and deficiencies not only of the Municipality of Aielli but also of other historic villages in the Marsica area, located within the Sirente-Velino Regional Natural Park. Since its inception in 2017, the project's promoters have worked tirelessly to engage citizens, stakeholders, and local public entities at various levels, implementing initiatives that generate economic, social, and employment benefits throughout the region. By creating a strong tourist attraction in Aielli, they have avoided the pitfalls of overtourism through synergy with local actors (associations, businesses, volunteers, disadvantaged individuals, and other municipalities).
The aim is to achieve coherence between economic, cultural, social, and environmental development through a participatory approach based on community and territorial involvement, using a complex, multi-value, and territorial approach aligned with the 2030 Agenda's goals. The project's aspiration is to build connections between art and culture, energy and technology by proposing innovative solutions to the challenges of the green transition. The ultimate goal is to establish Aielli as model for tourism development in peripherical area, embracing the three core principles of the New European Bauhaus: sustainability, inclusion, and aesthetics, improving both the visitor experience and the quality of life for residents.

How stakeholders are engaged
The initiative has actively engaged stakeholders at multiple levels—local, regional, national, and European—to ensure a holistic and impactful approach in both its design and implementation phases. Collaboration in the project's programming and implementation involves three sectors: public (local, regional, and national public bodies), profit (local and national businesses), and non-profit (various cultural and employer associations).
Key principles of the proposal include strong public-private collaboration, in line with the European Framework for Cultural Heritage, to generate benefits in the economy, cultural diversity, society, and the environment. The project directly involves local communities, productive organizations, profit and non-profit enterprises, and their intermediary organizations to stimulate collaboration, integration, and partnership in co-design and collaborative management. The involvement and selection of these entities will follow principles of non-discrimination, transparency, proportionality, and publicity.
Borgo Universo, by providing curricular internships, traineeships, and volunteer opportunities, opens participation to many educational entities targeting students and visual arts enthusiasts interested in contributing to the development of a major cultural event. These participants will work alongside the organizational staff to discover the behind-the-scenes activities. The active roles typically include support in communication office activities, secretarial tasks, hospitality office activities, and photography and videomaking tasks. This will promote the participation of the local population and other stakeholders (property owners, site managers, local and regional administrations, local communities, associations, and other interested parties).
