The Committees of Italians Abroad (COMITES) are representative bodies established by the Italian Republic to give a voice to Italian communities residing abroad. Their members are directly elected by Italian citizens registered with AIRE belonging to the relevant consular district.

Through constant dialogue with citizens, Italian institutions, and the numerous associative realities present in the territory, the COMITES promotes cultural, social, educational, and informational initiatives, fostering the participation of the Italian community and contributing to strengthening the bond with Italy.

Our task is to listen to the needs of the community, gather proposals, identify critical issues, and develop projects that enhance the Italian presence throughout the consular district, creating opportunities for meeting, collaboration, and shared growth.
