We announced this last November, on the occasion of the first edition of the Women of Tuscany: that was just the beginning, the launch of an all-encompassing commitment. And now, months later, we can say that we have come a long way, to assert women’s rights, and even more so, to recognize their qualities and advantages. Indeed, this is precisely the key that marks our way, in the realization that it is a fight for the benefit of all. We devote an entire day on May 9 to the talents of women – in the economy as in society and in every form of creativity. And now I say that it is another point of departure, another point of demarcation that will characterize the entire work of the regional government and will propose us as a laboratory for innovation in Europe ”comments the journalist and Prime Minister of the Presidency of the Tuscany Region Cristina Manetti.
“Rights, but also qualities, talents and advantages. It is the feeling of our obligation to and with women. The title of this day inevitably recalls a verse by Dante: ‘The woman who has a mind of love’, as well as the words of Rita Levi-Montalcini: ‘Women are the backbone of society.'” The spine supports the whole body, the bet on women is the bet of all. This is what Tuscany does with the ATI project – the Etruscan name for women: a project jointly financed by Europe and which we propose to Europe as a model “said the President of the Tuscan Regional Council, Eugenio Gianni. aggressiveness
