Sport is a common language that anyone can speak, it's a tool that unites and knows no limits.
Altropallone uses sport as social-educational language, to promote multiculturalism as a tool for social cohesion and urban integration, promoting cooperation projects both nationally and internationally. With a wide experience in the use of sport as a tool for social integration and peace, we promote interventions on the social-sporting issues related youth aggregation, education to sports for a healthy life, protection of the environmentand the common good, thanks to collaboration with local organizations.

Organisation History:
In 1997 the "Altropallone prize" was born, now in its twentieth edition, which every year is given to those who, in the world of sport, but not only, have worked in solidarity actions to protect the most disadvantaged categories. The Award Jury is made up of journalists, operators in the world of information and voluntary work, to which the winners are added each year.
In 1998 the first edition of the "AltriMondiali/Other World Cup" was created, a campaign to raise awareness every 4 years, following the moment of the World Cup, proposing the realization of events in which sport emerges, and football in particular, as a universal social language to the end to counter the most negative aspects of the event.
In 2004 the association was born to carry on projects and campaigns in Italy and in the world.
