In mid-October 2026, the Italian Red Cross began emphasizing disaster risk prevention and community adaptation to mitigate the impact of extreme weather events like floods and heatwaves. This included an upcoming event in Milan focused on communication strategies for disaster risk reduction.

By late October, environmental and social organizations in Italy expanded these efforts through a coalition mobilization titled ‘La Terra chiamò’ (The Earth Called). This initiative seeks to incorporate climate concerns into political and social decision-making, with a major mobilization planned for December 5 at Piazza del Popolo in Rome. Additionally, regional discussions in Gorizia have emerged to address energy transitions and climate challenges.
