Formazione e la partecipazione degli studenti alle funzioni elettorali. Firmato al Viminale l’Accordo Quadro

Scrutatori

Il ministro dell’Interno, Matteo Piantedosi, il ministro dell’Istruzione e del Merito, Giuseppe Valditara, il ministro dell’Università e della Ricerca, Anna Maria Bernini, e la presidente della Conferenza dei Rettori delle Università Italiane (CRUI), Giovanna Iannantuoni, hanno sottoscritto oggi un Accordo Quadro finalizzato alla promozione di percorsi di cittadinanza attiva per la formazione e la partecipazione degli studenti alle funzioni degli uffici elettorali.

L’iniziativa, nata da una collaborazione interistituzionale, mira a rafforzare il coinvolgimento dei giovani nella vita democratica del Paese, formando cittadini qualificati per svolgere il ruolo di presidente o componente dei seggi elettorali. Contestualmente, l’accordo contribuirà a risolvere le criticità nella costituzione dei seggi, dovute all’elevato numero di sezioni sul territorio nazionale.

Il modello operativo definito dall’accordo prevede la stipula, a livello locale, di Protocolli di intesa tra prefetture, uffici scolastici regionali, istituzioni scolastiche e università, che disciplineranno progetti formativi specifici in materia elettorale.

I destinatari dell’iniziativa sono sia studenti universitari che potranno partecipare a percorsi di formazione teorico-pratica, con possibilità di tirocini presso prefetture e comuni e riconoscimento di crediti formativi, che studenti del secondo biennio e dell’ultimo anno delle scuole secondarie di secondo grado, che, nell’ambito dei Percorsi per le competenze trasversali e per l’orientamento (PCTO), seguiranno progetti di educazione civica e formazione giuridico-economica.

A supporto dell’attuazione dell’accordo, sarà istituito presso il dipartimento per gli Affari Interni e Territoriali del ministero dell’Interno un Tavolo di monitoraggio con rappresentanti di tutte le istituzioni coinvolte.

Roma, 30 aprile 2025

È morto Papa Francesco

Il sistema universitario italiano si unisce al profondo cordoglio della comunità cattolica per il decesso di Sua Santità Papa Francesco, annunciato stamattina dalla Santa Sede.

Un Papa riformista e un uomo vicino da sempre agli ultimi della Terra, che credeva fermamente nell’università in quanto istituzione che ha il compito di “allargare i confini e diventare uno spazio aperto per l'uomo e per la società.”

Alle società umane viene meno un punto di riferimento importante per la mitigazione delle ingiustizie sociali e la risoluzione pacifica dei conflitti.
