A small but significant gift comes from the Municipality of Carbonia , because culture begins from the cradle: in addition to the congratulatory card from the municipal administration, the parents of the children are receiving an invitation to collect a box with some cute booklets. It is a special "welcome to the world" in a period of demographic collapse: in 2021, for example, only 85 children were born in Carbonia.
The project is due to the participation in a tender promoted by the Ministry of Cultural Activities, which Carbonia presented as leader of the Sulcis library system, entitled Io vado in Biblioteca .
The Municipality - explains the mayor Pietro Morittu - through this simple initiative wants to protect the right to stories, promote access to quality books and promote reading in the family from birth ". A way to spread an important message of cultural vision and invest in promoting reading among the new generations.
The families of Carbonia , delighted by the arrival of a child, can then go to the library in Viale Arsia to receive the box as a gift. Initiative also open to parents of children born in 2021.
