Program and events

21 November - SAN MARINO CITY

The tree of kind words
A tree will be planted in the historic center of San Marino from which kind words "bloom". This symbolic gesture is intended to guide the search and use of positive words in everyday life, full of understanding, feeling and gratitude. Kind words will be hung on a holly through wooden supports with the aim of making people reflect on terms with the opposite meaning or thoughts full of hostility which, unlike kind words, can become fertile ground for situations of violence against women and gender-based violence

by the Equal Opportunities Commission in collaboration with the Environmental and Agricultural Resources Management Office
