Italian constitutional commemorations and advocacy

Overview

In late September 2026, legal professionals and civil society members in Naples established the association ‘Officina Costituzione’. Co-presidents Giovanna De Minico and Pierluigi Picardi launched the group to address what their manifesto describes as a ‘constitutional emergency,’ specifically debating judicial reforms, electoral reform, and differentiated autonomy.

By late October, focus shifted toward cultural and educational initiatives marking the 80th anniversary of the Italian Constitution and the 1946 institutional referendum. These efforts included historical exhibitions at the Italian Cultural Institute in New York and the ‘Biagio Andò’ Prize in Giarre, which aims to promote constitutional literacy and democratic engagement among students through meetings between academics and elected officials.
