After nearly two years it is still urgent to better address the consequences of the Covid-19 pandemic. Evidence collected during the crisis show that the Covid-19 has had a significant impact also on non-communicable diseases (NCDs). Indeed, oncological and chronic patients have been left almost alone for months.
In line with its long-term commitment on therapeutic adherence, Active Citizenship Network (ACN) is launching an EU Survey with the aim to better contribute – starting from the citizens’ and patients’ perspective – on understanding the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on non-communicable and chronic patients’ therapeutic adherence.

Cittadinanzattiva’s most recent project on sustainable mobility, promoted in conjunction with the Unipolis Foundation, is the fruit of the work of 2,000 students from 57 Italian schools which imagines and sketches out the possible ways in which mobility and the communities of the future will work. The proposals include apps that reward people who use eco-friendly means of transport; sustainable, integrated areas in towns where cars and bikes can be recharged; benches with solar panels; smog-eating buses; and sensors that can reveal whether drivers have taken alcohol or drugs. Ten groups representing ten secondary schools from across Italy presented and delivered the first sustainable mobility Manifesto by Italian schools to Enrico Giovannini, Minister of Sustainable Infrastructures and Mobility, last September in Rome, in the framework of the Annual European Mobility Week, of which Cittadinanzattiva, through its EU branch Active Citizenship Network, is an associated partner since many years.

As the first year of the NUDGE Project ends, the first phase of data collection on consumers’ behaviors regarding energy is ending, while the second phase begins. This year the NUDGE consortium will carry out five field trials to experiment with a broad set of behavioral interventions in scenarios with high potential for energy savings, targeting consumers from Greece, Belgium, Germany, Portugal, and Croatia. Pilot projects will target European consumers coming from different environments (residential, energy communities, schools), different age groups (children included), different income classes, and being served by different energy carriers.
