During the CoNet Final Conference on 31st March 2011 in Berlin CESIE and the Department for youth Affairs of the Municipality of Palermo and other 100 participants from the 11 CoNet partner cities and associated Managing Authorities presented and exchanged results of the network. Lead Expert Prof. Dr. Rotraut Weeber elaborated the seven core tasks improving disadvantaged neighbourhoods outlined in CoNet’s Guide to Social Cohesion that was presented at the Final Conference.

The Guide reports the experience of some institutions being members of the Local Support Group CoNet Palermo, including: Networking for legality and project sinergie, Libera  Palermo, Centro internazionale delle culture Ubuntu Creating connections through children and a circus atmosphere and Centro Astalli Civic action—know where there is real need.

We take this opportunity to thank also the Association Ziggurat and the association Bayty Baytik for their valid contribution to the draft of the Local Action Plan CoNet Palermo.
