Goretti" which manages the charity canteen and other representatives of projects and associations. territorial. The debate was led by Marco Ranieri and Antonio Spera of "Avanzi Popolo 2.0".

A snapshot of the city's state of health, obesity and nutrition will be traced. Not one, but many good reasons to actively participate in the "cultural nourishment" process promoted by the Food Hub of Andria in concert with the municipal administration.
