THE VERSO FOUNDATION FURTHERS EDUCATIONAL AND TRAINING PROJECTS THAT GO BEYOND THEORETICAL NOTIONS AND AIM AT THE GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT OF THE WHOLE PERSON.
PROJECTS AND COLLABORATIONS
Our mission is to support educational and training projects already in existence and to advance new ones.
In all projects the Verso Foundation and the Verso Association collaborate with people who are familiar, on a day-to-day basis, with the territory in which they operate, and with its problems.

TO EDUCATE DOES NOT MEAN TO FILL MINDS WITH EXTRANEOUS MATERIAL, BUT TO KINDLE THE INNER FIRE PRESENT IN EVERY HUMAN BEING
Roberto Assagioli
Who We Are
Verso Foundation was created in 2006 by a group of friends with different skills, all interested in the field of education, and all sharing a view of education that is directed at the person’s wholeness. We believe in the harmonious development of the personality, and of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of the person within his or her community.
Our aims
To know, to know how to be, to know how to do: this is the goal of education. We believe in the harmonious development of the personality, and of the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of the person within his or her community. We speak of spirituality in the lay, non-confessional sense, while wholly respecting the various traditions.
Our methods
Our sources of inspiration are many, but one in particular unites us: Psychosynthesis, the school of psychology founded by Roberto Assagioli. We subscribe to his thought that “to educate does not mean to fill minds with extraneous material, but to kindle the inner fire present in every human being”.
