The same award, which lasts for two years, had also been given to the city of Doria in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>During 2018, the Municipality of Loano presented to local cultural associations the new \u201cPact for Reading,\u201d which aims to create a structured territorial network in order to \u201crestore value to the act of reading as an essential moment for the construction of a new idea of citizenship.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Loano's \u201cCovenant for Reading\u201d involves the country's educational institutions, bookstores, the municipal retirement home, cultural and voluntary associations, social services, local publishers, private businesses, citizens and all those who share the idea that \u201creading, declined in all its forms, is a common good in which to invest for the cultural growth of the individual and society an extraordinary tool for innovation and economic and social development of Loano.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>By joining the Pact, the associations had confirmed their willingness to support and participate in cultural projects promoted by the administration.
