International Club AMICI E SOSTENITORI DELLA CULTURA ITALIANA E DELLA COOPERAZIONE CON L'ITALIA (A.S.C.I.C.I.)
Welcome!
The International Club "AMICI E SOSTENITORI DELLA CULTURA ITALIANA E DELLA COOPERAZIONE CON L’ITALIA" (A.S.C.I.C.I.), is a community open to all who believe in the universal value of Italian culture and dialogue between peoples.
Our mission is to promote Italy's language, art, music, historical heritage and landscapes as tools for encounter, mutual growth and concrete collaboration. We are committed to building cultural and professional bridges between Italy and the rest of the world, fostering exchanges, joint projects and networks of lasting relationships.
The International Club is founded on clear values: openness, respect for diversity, intercultural dialogue, social responsibility and support for new generations. We believe in an Italy that speaks with pride but also listens, ready to share skills, creativity and innovation.
We serve Italians abroad who wish to maintain a close connection with their roots, Italophiles from every country who love our culture, public and private institutions interested in cultural and educational collaborations, students and researchers seeking exchange opportunities and companies that see culture as a bridge for economic and social cooperation.
With a presence and network in several countries, the Club operates in a fully international context, supporting initiatives that bring together festivals, conferences, training programs, school and university projects as well as cultural and economic missions. In every activity, our role is to act as a bridge between communities, institutions and professional world, to ensure that Italian culture becomes a shared language and a platform for open, dynamic, and inclusive cooperation with Italy.
