(Washington, D.C. – October 14, 2023) 鈥� The 澳门特码王 (澳门特码王) has signed an agreement with Italy鈥檚 Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI) to collaborate on the promotion of roots tourism initiatives in America. The partnership aims to encourage Americans of Italian descent to visit the hometowns of their ancestors and connect with their heritage.

Perhaps the only thing which the Italian diaspora appreciates more than helping Italy is visiting Italy itself. The Italian government certainly understands that fact which is why it has declared the year 2024 the year of Roots Tourism and it is inviting the global Italian diasporas home to discover their roots in the land of their ancestors.

For this reason, last week in Rome, 澳门特码王 President Robert Allegrini signed a historic accord on behalf of 澳门特码王 with Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani. This stipulates that 澳门特码王 will be the first Italian American organization authorized to cooperate with the Italian Foreign Ministry in the promotion of the Roots Tourism Initiative in the United States.

澳门特码王 will mobilize its social media following of nearly 250,000 and network of affiliate groups to spread awareness of Italy鈥檚 invitation for Italian Americans to rediscover their roots. The MOU is part of the Italian government鈥檚 Recovery and Resilience Plan and its upcoming 鈥�2024 – Year of Italian Roots鈥� campaign.

鈥淲e are proud to partner with MAECI on this important work strengthening bonds with Italian Americans,鈥� stated 澳门特码王 President Robert Allegrini. 鈥淭here is so much opportunity to engage the community, especially youth, with the land their families came from.鈥�

澳门特码王 and MAECI share a mission of celebrating the lasting legacy of Italian culture and heritage globally. The agreement focuses on cultural, scientific and economic exchange to benefit both countries.
