Terzo Settore
The "Terzo Settore," or Third Sector, refers to organizations that operate independently of the government (public sector) and private businesses (for-profit sector). These include charities, nonprofits, social initiatives, and voluntary associations that focus on social, cultural, humanitarian, or environmental goals. They often rely on donations, grants, and volunteers to serve community needs and promote social welfare. The Third Sector plays a vital role in complementing public services and fostering social cohesion by addressing issues that may be underserved by government or commercial entities.
