A collaboration agreement has been signed between the University of Trieste and Crédit Agricole Italia for the third edition of the second-level Master's Degree in Law and Management of the Third Sector: Social Welfare Systems between Entrepreneurship, Volunteering, and Subsidiarity, promoted by the Department of Political and Social Sciences.

Scholarships and facilitated access to credit

Crédit Agricole, the University's current treasury bank, will provide scholarships totaling €10,000 for deserving students enrolled in the 2025/2026 edition of the Master’s program. The support also extends to other forms of financial aid for participation and project development.

The agreement also grants access to special financial tools, including the “Prestito d’Onore” (Honor Loan) — a line of credit with an initial interest-free period — and personal loans for specialist training, with competitive rates, flexible terms, and no application fees. Access to these services is subject to creditworthiness assessment by the bank, in line with the terms set out in the agreement.

Crowdfunding, training, and professional engagement

Among the other commitments, Crédit Agricole will provide free access to its crowdfunding platform to support educational and research projects related to the Master. The collaboration also includes webinars and networking opportunities with professionals from the banking and insurance sectors, as well as contributions to teaching activities on topics such as ethical finance, social entrepreneurship, and sustainability.
