📍 More than 60 initiatives delivered
🎓 More than 3,000 young people involved
🌍 More than 100 international mobility experiences
🤝 24 Italian and international partnerships established
Today, EFC stands out as a strategic best practice for the Italian higher education system and will continue in the coming years as a stable platform for innovation, cooperation and human capital development.
