A network of case del quartiere born in Turin in 2012, with the Cascina Roccafranca as its first node. They are recovered public facilities co-managed by the city council, associations and residents, with their own programming and local social services. It has measured its social impact since 2017, something uncommon in the sector, and has served as a model for other Italian cities.
