The services provided by the third sector are crucial in supporting citizens and in building more resilient and inclusive communities. The present study aims to analyse the degree of spatial accessibility and the ease of access to services provided by the Non-Profit Organisations (NPOs) registered in the Third Sector Single National Register (Registro Unico Nazionale del Terzo Settore – RUNTS) and located in the Municipality of Rome. Specifically, we developed an indicator aimed at gauging citizens’ ease of access to specific services provided by two different types of NPOs: social promotion associations and voluntary organisations. We considered the Municipality of Rome as a case study due to the vastness and diversity of its territory, which presents particular challenges in the distribution and availability of services offered by the third sector. The findings reveal a spatial inequality in service accessibility, with services being more accessible in the inner districts than in the peripheral ones.

摘要

The services provided by the third sector are crucial in supporting citizens and in building more resilient and inclusive communities. The present study aims to analyse the degree of spatial accessibility and the ease of access to services provided by the Non-Profit Organisations (NPOs) registered in the Third Sector Single National Register (Registro Unico Nazionale del Terzo Settore – RUNTS) and located in the Municipality of Rome. Specifically, we developed an indicator aimed at gauging citizens’ ease of access to specific services provided by two different types of NPOs: social promotion associations and voluntary organisations. We considered the Municipality of Rome as a case study due to the vastness and diversity of its territory, which presents particular challenges in the distribution and availability of services offered by the third sector. The findings reveal a spatial inequality in service accessibility, with services being more accessible in the inner districts than in the peripheral ones.
