Agreements and conventions

In 2013 the Lazio Region joined the international project "The city of children" and developed the regional project "Lazio, the Region of children".

The collaboration between the Institute of Cognitive Sciences and Technologies and the Lazio Region, which has been carried out continuously from 2013 to today, aims to consolidate and develop the regional project by implementing synergistic actions aimed at promoting the project, the training of the subjects involved and the implementation of the research activity, both in terms of monitoring and evaluating the effectiveness of the project.

Over the years, the Institute of Cognitive Sciences and Technologies has stipulated collaboration agreements and conventions with different types of public bodies (Municipalities, Provinces, Regions), with the aim of developing, in their respective territories, the objectives and activities envisaged by the project itself.

From 2006 to 2011, a cooperation agreement was stipulated with the Province of Rome which, in addition to the establishment of a provincial network of municipalities participating in the project, also envisaged the carrying out of research on children's perception of the world of work.
