Project Description

Forum delle associazioni familiari (FORUM)
The Forum of Family Associations (Forum) is an Italian association founded in 1992 with the aim of promoting the family as a social subject.
The Forum is a second level association, that is, those who compose it are, in turn, associations. Thanks to its regional and provincial branches, it aims to act as a spur to politics at all levels and to improve the conditions of Italian families.
On the European level, the Forum of Family Associations has joined the Federation of Catholic Family Associations in Europe (FAFCE).
