“Italiae” was created with the intention of strengthening the administrative and management skills of the services of local authorities, and is structured on three lines of intervention: aggregation, intercommunality and associated management of functions.
The main objectives of the project are:

⋅to modernize the territorial administrative system,
⋅to improve the performance of local authorities,
⋅ to enhance governance capacity.

To achieve these objectives, a series of capacity building actions will be carried out on the national territory, aimed at all the administrations concerned.
The project is divided into different lines of intervention, designed and structured to help all local public bodies, with differentiated actions and accompanying tools. An indispensable approach
