The Diocese of Manfredonia–Vieste–San Giovanni Rotondo has begun updating the candidate ranking for its Universal Civil Service project, "Generate Hope – Caritas Manfredonia." This step follows the failure of a previously selected volunteer to begin their service. The diocese is contacting candidate ID 1317110 to check their availability. If the candidate accepts, the replacement service is expected to run for 11 months, from October 16, 2026, to September 17, 2027. The role requires 25 hours of work per week across 6 days. To sign the contract, the selected individual must use a qualified electronic signature via the AppIO system. This process requires a smartphone with NFC capabilities and the physical use of an electronic identity card.
