From Bologna to Pescara, trees and urban parks are being sacrificed for the construction of new schools. All financed with PNRR funds that, at least on paper, should be spent in compliance with the "Do No Significant Harm" principle, a guarantee of protection of the six sustainability principles that underpin the European Green Deal. In Bologna, thanks to the resistance of the committees, the Don Bosco park was saved.
Schools and universities have long recognized the importance of physical education and sport, in light of the evident benefits of movement and exercise at all ages and starting from childhood. Recommended reading: Happy teachers change the world.
