«Spiritualità e impegno civico» Una ricerca nel saluzzese

[Autom. eng. transl.] This chapter presents the report - data and process, content and experience - of a survey that was carried out in the autumn of 2019 in the diocese of Saluzzo (Cuneo). This is an initiative of great interest, which has yielded results that go beyond those imagined and pursued. The outcome of the survey is to be evaluated not only in terms of better knowledge of the adolescents of the territory, but also as an opportunity for dialogue and alliance between the ecclesial reality, the scholastic reality of the territory, almost a first implementation of that strategy of alliances suggested and invoked by Pope Francis in the Global Compact on Education. The survey was born from the will of the diocese - Bishop and youth ministry - to precede the Youth Mission, scheduled for spring 2020, by a desire to get to know the adolescents and young people, recipients of the Mission itself. A group of youth ministry operators carried out a careful and meticulous preparation work, both from the organizational point of view and from the point of view of the contents, giving life to a team that was involved in the project, assuming responsibility and gradually acquiring skills: this constitutes one of the results of the initiative, together with the research activity.
