As part of the EESC's efforts to promote fundamental rights and the rule of law, a delegation of the EESC's Group on Fundamental Rights and the Rule of Law visited Italy on 16-17 October 2024. The delegation met with several representatives of civil society, specifically from civil society organisations, the social partners, the media, and the legal professions. A separate meeting was held with the Italian authorities, where the latter had the opportunity to react to some of the points presented to them. The aim of this report is to faithfully reflect and reproduce the views of civil society. The EESC FRRL Group last carried out a visit to Italy on 5-6 December 2019.
