PLIN - PROJECTS FOR LEARNING INNOVATION
A place designed to develop skills typical of the 21st century through highly innovative and interdisciplinary educational and training initiatives. Through its educational vision aimed at an audience of all ages, PLIN aims to provide educational experiences and moments of training that are modern and connected to the society around us.
plin represent an identifying element of Piedmontese gastronomic tradition. A reinterpretation of the classic ravioli for an elegant and popular dish, the child of that “pizzicotto” (plin in dialect) used to enclose the filling between one raviolo and the next. A dish known since 1846 that has its roots in the ingenuity of the local peasant civilization, skilled at recovering food scraps and transforming them into an iconic product now known throughout Italy and the rest of the world.
Hence, the philosophy of PLIN, the Projects for Learning Innovation was born: from a diverse amalgam of hard work, vision and talent.
