To respond effectively to the need for innovation and efficient socially oriented services, the Public Administration and the Third Sector are called upon to rethink their mutual relationships according to the collaborative logic of shared administration.
As expressly recognized by art. 6 of the new Public Procurement Code, in fact, the Public Administration can adopt, in relation to activities with a strong social value, organizational models of shared administration, that do not involve reciprocal contractual obligations, but are instead based on the sharing of the administrative function with Third Sector entities.
The new practices governed by art. 55 CTS represent, therefore, "a real proceduralization of the subsidiary action" (Constitutional Court, sentence no. 131/2020) which requires specific knowledge and skills for their proper implementation.
The Executive Programme provides the specialist knowledge necessary for designing and managing of shared administration processes that fully express the innovative logics recently introduced into the legal framework on the basis of the principle of subsidiarity. Particular attention is given to the mechanisms provided for and regulated by Article 55 of the Third Sector Code (Legislative Decree no. 117/2017), enabling participants to have a positive impact on the social fabric of local communities by fostering better coordination and aggregation of resources (both economic and non-economic) aimed at mitigating the fragmentation of public policies.
