Partnerships with social impact

Leveraging on consolidated relationships and activating new relational networks, the Bank continues to create forms of partnerships arranged with Third Sector organisations and bodies, creating real solidarity ecosystems. It is a series of structured initiatives that are characterised by the widespread nature of the actions, plurality of entities involved, multiannual programming and the ability to respond to needs.

This affirms an innovative and resilient operational system, which relies on co-design as a method of intervention along two lines to combating poverty and to support social cohesion and inclusion. Not only a response to need, therefore, but a careful construction of opportunities through a transversal design for the achievement of the key objective of the UN’s 2030 Agenda: leaving no one behind and ensuring greater well-being for all.

Social inclusion and cohesion

Intesa Sanpaolo promotes social inclusion and local cohesion by directing its project activities with a view to rebalancing inequalities. The activities centres around a structural system of relationships for the joint planning of actions, in favour of those in a position of disadvantage, struggling to reach that minimum threshold of well-being and dignity that should be everyone’s right.

Assistance to the elderly, young people and families

The partnership with Caritas Italiana continues through the programme “Aiutare chi Aiuta: un Sostegno Alle Nuove Fragilità” (Helping the Helpers: Support in Favour of New Vulnerabilities), in particular with the project “Non più Soli una rete solidale per la terza età” (No Longer Alone: A Solidarity Network for the Elderly) a long-term programme aimed at supporting the Italian Dioceses through calls for tenders managed by Caritas Italiana and the Bank that involves the creation of toll-free numbers in each diocese, delivery services of basic necessities (food and medicines) and co-housing solutions for temporary shelter.

 

The three-year partnership (2021-2023) with FOM - Fondazione Oratori Milanesi - created the project “Oratori di periferia” (Suburban Parish Recreation Centres), a social regeneration initiative in the Diocese of Milan aimed at refocusing on communities. Active in 30 parishes in the Milan hinterland, the programme aims to rebuild the social fabric of the peripheral areas involved, redefine a community identity and support families from situations of hardship and educational poverty, with a focus on young people.

Projects for the childhood

With the WeBecome project, Intesa Sanpaolo directs its attention to children in primary schools, addressing issues of digital civics, bullying and cyberbullying, diversity, addictions, but also food and nutrition, innovation and development of individual potential.


The project based on a free online platform aimed to provide an important support for distance learning during the pandemic.

Other important projects focus on the psychophysical well-being of children, also in collaboration with leading healthcare facilities at a national level:

  • Programma Educativo Intesa Sanpaolo per Bambini Lungodegenti (Intesa Sanpaolo’s Educational Programme for children who are long-term patients), active in cutting-edge hospitals in Padua, Bologna, Turin, Naples, Monza and Genoa. In 2022, the nursery school at the Paediatrics Department - Cancer and Haematology Section of the Giovanni XXIII Hospital in Bari was opened. Over 500 children enrolled, 100% in the nursery age bracket;
  • Partnership with the Bambino Gesù Paediatric Hospital for the creation of two new medical centres dedicated to eating disorders and the autism spectrum in children;
  • Partnership with the Comitato Maria Luisa Verga for a research project on Sport Therapy and Psychological Well-being.
     

Combating addiction

Intesa Sanpaolo is well aware that ensuring a healthy life and promoting the well-being of all individuals at all ages is a fundamental element in achieving sustainable development. The programmes set up to combat addiction go in this direction, such as the partnership with the Fondazione San Patrignano to provide it with support with its activities offering shelter and promoting the WeFree prevention campaign; a form of support that is expressed through webinars offered to the Intesa Sanpaolo population to assist with parenting thanks to collaboration with experts who work with the Fondazione San Patrignano. 

 

Social housing

As part of the 2022-25 Business Plan, the Group has announced one of the most extensive social housing programmes in Italy through the promotion of houses (about 6,000-8,000 dwellings) for young people (families, workers, students) and seniors (e.g. elderly people with limited incomes who live alone). The initiative will be launched in 2023 and developed over the coming years as a medium-long term Project. On 2022 was completed the design of the project with the preliminary phase of analysing the context.
