About Us | AINA PAOLO Academy

Our Identity

AINA is a meeting of people who are united by the same goal: to help and sustain others in difficulty. Our diversity is one of AINA’s strengths, as we are enriched by the meeting and exchange of cultures. Through cooperation we can achieve our common goal: to overcome suffering and empower disadvantaged people.

Our Motto

Our Mission

To create a safe nurturing community where each child is supported to develop independence to reach their potential.

“I do my thing and you do your thing. I am not in this world to live up to your expectations, And you are not in this world to live up to mine. You are you, and I am I, and if by chance we find each other, it's beautiful.”
— Perls F., 1969

AINA represents an organisation built from the commitment and effort of diverse people who have come together in the knowledge that the collective contribution of many individuals can generate effective change for a better world. The fundamental code of conduct we live by is to share, respect and listen to others, independent of their creed, sexuality, race or age.
