dc.description.abstractFrom 1947 to 1969, when Italy still had severe disparities and vast pockets of deprivation, the Foster Parents' Plan (FPP), an international organization, operated to support children who were victims of war – abandoned, refugees or orphans –, creating “personal bonds” with foster parents who supported them from a distance. The first activities of the Plan were aimed at those admitted to institutions, but soon it was dedicated, through tested organizational methods, to helping children living with their families, aiming not only at their mere subsistence, but by enabling them to provide for themselves and become active members of the community
