THE UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD

The MEDITERRANEAN FOUNDATION, since its creation in 1990 immediately after the fall of the Berlin Wall, has taken as one of its main objectives the establishment of the "UNITED STATES OF THE WORLD": from an intuition of Gustavo Rol.
The activities carried out over the last three decades by the Foundation - particularly in the area of the "Greater Mediterranean" - bear witness to a constant and concrete action that, precisely in these difficult times of war and pandemic, is an anchor of salvation to strengthen the spirit of peace and cooperation between peoples.
The adhesions of men and women, organisations and institutions from various countries contribute to supporting the institutional initiative by pursuing concrete objectives and effective means for the defence of the planet, respect for the fundamental rights of the human person, the coexistence of philosophies, faiths and religions, the fair distribution of goods and resources, the union of science and politics for the salvation of humanity and against all wars.

 

The Secretary General (SG) of the "United States of the World" Prof. Michele Capasso, on the sidelines of the "ALIS ON TOUR" meeting, presented the "United States of the World" and the importance of the cocnreta action carried out for 33 years for peace and shared development to the ministers and politicians present.
To Interior Minister Luciana Lamorgese, the SG emphasised the importance of the actions in the area of the reception and integration of migrants and refugees that the "United States of the World" has been carrying out since 1990 in cooperation with associations and organisations from the voluntary sector and civil society.
The Minister for Regional Affairs and Autonomies Mariastella Gelmini the SG illustrated the "Towards the South" programme launched by the "United States of the World" in 1992 and aimed at rebalancing Europe in the Greater Mediterranean with a special role for Southern Italy in the areas of tourism, land and sea resources and cultural heritage.
To the Minister for Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation Luigi Di Maio, the SG illustrated the initiatives in the areas of peace and dialogue carried out by the 'United States of the World' since 1989, with the significant 'Forums' of Napolim, Marseilles and Barcelona constituting milestones for international diplomatic action.
To the Minister for Disabilities, Erika Stefani, the SG highlighted the significant initiatives carried out by the "United States of the World" since 1992 in the sphere of disability protection understood as a "transversal matter that crosses all our living".
To the Minister for Equal Opportunities and the Family, Elena Bonetti, the SG highlighted the priority actions of the 'United States of the World' in the areas of gender equality and support for families and women's work.
The importance of the United States of the World was also illustrated by the SG to a number of Under Secretaries: Assuntela Messina (Technological Innovation and Digital Transition), Dalila Nesci (South and Territorial Cohesion), Giorgio Mulè (Defence).

The Italy of enterprises and territories protagonists of today and tomorrow.  After the great success of the first edition of LET EXPO, ALIS continues its associative activity with a tour to discover Southern Italy!
Guido Grimaldi: "The presence of Ministers Lamorgese, Gelmini, Stefani, Bonetti e Di Maio, dei Sottosegretari Messina, Nesci and Mulè, Vice-President of the Chamber of Deputies Rosato and many distinguished guests is a further sign of great appreciation for the work done by the transport and logistics sector".
This is how ALIS President Guido Grimaldi comments on the first appointment of 'ALIS ON TOUR. L'Italia in movimento alla scoperta del Mezzogiorno" (Italy on the move to discover Southern Italy), which will see the Association play a leading role next 14 June in Naples, on 5 July in Manduria (Taranto) and, finally, on 2 August in Catania.
The day's proceedings were kicked off by an interview with the Minister of the Interior Luciana Lamorgese, who emphasised precisely the importance recognised for the sector, also in terms of security, considering "what has been done by the logistics cluster represented by ALIS during the lockdown and the help given to the system with the punctual transport of goods, thanks to which Italians have never suffered shortages of any goods. In this regard, the many funds that will be allocated to reducing the distances between North and South, such as those on the high-speed rail network, are very important, and I believe that the PNRR funds can be used precisely to reduce these distances: it is essential that we move forward along this line".
