In&out

In&Out is a project funded through resources from Law 285/1997, promoted by the Municipality of Milan and implemented through a multidisciplinary partnership involving the Catholic University of Milan, the University of Milano-Bicocca, MUBA – Children’s Museum Milan, COMIN, Koinè, Stripes, and Equa.

The project is part of the city’s policies aimed at promoting the well-being, rights, and educational opportunities of children, adolescents, and young people, with particular attention to situations of vulnerability and transition.

The goal of In&Out is to strengthen integrated pathways of prevention, inclusion, and participation by enhancing collaboration among third-sector organizations, cultural institutions, and academia.

The project promotes innovative approaches that combine research, education, culture, and social intervention, supporting the identification of emerging needs and the experimentation of educational and relational practices capable of operating both within institutional settings (“in”) and in everyday and informal contexts (“out”).

MUBA, in particular, contributes through cultural and creative languages as tools for expression, participation, and growth. In&Out is structured as a network-based working experience, aimed at developing replicable and sustainable intervention models to support younger generations in the urban context of Milan.

The project is funded through funds allocated under Law 285/1997, which support the National Fund for Children and Adolescents. This fund was established to promote the rights, quality of life, and development of minors, in accordance with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Administered by the Department of Family Policy, it finances local and regional initiatives, with a portion of the funds earmarked for 15 major Italian cities.
