IDME

Scholarships

Leben nuova has received some funds* that will allow for the granting of a limited number of partial scholarships, in the form of a discount on the cost of the entire IDME 2026–2028 training program. Students who intend to complete the program may contact the program administration at staff_leben@lebensnetz.it.

The IDME program consists of 6 modules, including 4 thematic courses and 2 application courses, for a total of 42 days of instruction, from September 2026 to July 2028. The total program fee is €5,880.00 (€4,820.00 + 22% VAT).

Once partial scholarships have been awarded, the student will sign an agreement with Leben Nuova that outlines payment dates and methods and establishes the policy in the event of withdrawal from the program.

*The funds enabling the awarding of scholarships come from the spiritual and material legacy of Antonio Pezzinga, to whose family we extend our gratitude.
