Being a foreigner in a vulnerable situation in Italy almost always means living on the margins of our society, even when the desire is to integrate. Episodes of racism are an everyday occurrence; discrimination undermines full human dignity and obstructs the individual's path forward.

For us, every person has the right to choose their own community of belonging — one of rights and responsibilities — whether in Italy or abroad.

We were looking for the right partner… and we found ASGI.

Made up of lawyers, jurists and scholars specialising in immigration, asylum and citizenship law, ASGI has become a point of reference for associations, public and private bodies, students, trainee lawyers, social workers and all those wishing to deepen their awareness and expertise, spreading a culture of integration across the territory through the protection of rights.

ASGI develops advocacy actions to change laws that discriminate and conflict with our Constitution and the international Conventions that Italy has signed. It exposes and challenges rights violations through strategic litigation.

A network of expert individuals, therefore, that delivers high-impact projects across the territory and contributes to the reform of discriminatory rules and laws.

This is why we stand alongside ASGI — to raise awareness of and strengthen the protection offered by European and Italian anti-discrimination law, through the promotion of strategic legal cases and the spreading of a culture of integration through the defence of rights.
