Compagnia di San Paolo supports the Festival

Always attentive to people's well-being and the promotion of good habits, the Compagnia di San Paolo supports the Festival of Food Journalism.

It does so with a speech by Professor Gianni Bona, emeritus primary of Pediatrics at the Maggiore Hospital of Charity of Novara who will present a particularly important project to prevent childhood obesity, carried out within the program of the ZeroSei Foundation: "Bimbingambazerosei".

This is the initiative with which the Compagnia di San Paolo focuses on the prevention of obesity in children, a topic of growing health and social interest that can become a relevant issue for the health of future generations. The project includes training activities for health professionals, a communication campaign aimed at the population and the implementation of targeted prevention activities.

The Compagnia di San Paolo is one of the largest private foundations in Europe. Established in the 1563, its mission is to promote the civil, cultural and economic development of the communities in which it operates, pursuing aims of public interest and social utility. The incomes produced by his assets, accumulated over the centuries, are put at the service of these purposes.

The Compagnia di San Paolo is active in the fields of research and higher education, social policies, health, artistic heritage and cultural activities. He is a member of the European Foundation Center (EFC) and of ACRI, the Italian association of banking foundations and savings banks.
