About Un Ponte per
Un Ponte Per (UPP) is an international solidarity association and NGO founded in 1991 immediately after the Iraq war. Its focus has always been the solidarity for the Iraqi population affected by the war. Originally called “Un Ponte Per Baghdad”, the association later became known as "Un Ponte Per" after expanding its work into Serbia, Kosovo and other Middle Eastern and Mediterranean countries. UPP’s goal is the prevention of armed and violent conflict, particularly in the Middle East, through a series of information campaigns, cultural exchange, cooperation projects, peace building programmes and the creation of social justice networks.
