Learning and Pedagogy of Territories: The Piano delle Fosse Granarie as a Symbolic and Educational Device

The Piano delle Fosse Granarie can be seen as an open-air educational space, an example of situated learning rooted in historical memory and community identity. As an agricultural archive and civic resource, it offers opportunities for active citizenship, cultural ecology and social cohesion. The association of this site with Giuseppe Di Vittorio, a local figure emblematic of social redemption and educational engagement, reinforces its value as a living, transformative memory. Through a hermeneutic-pedagogical perspective, the Piano is seen not only as a monument but also as a symbolic learning environment that promotes informal, community-based educational practices (Global Network of Learning Cities, UNESCO, 2015). It embodies a territorial pedagogy in which spaces of collective memory become catalysts for social connections and future-oriented learning.
