What is Abitato?

ABITATO means ‘place/area where people live’ in Italian. In medieval Rome, it was also used to refer to the area where people survived despite the collapse of the empire. Due to population decline, political corruption and the economic depression, the glorious empire fell apart, but its legacy and the city of Rome survived until today thanks to those few survivors in the ABITATO who dared to sustain the city through this dark period and whose persistence eventually led to the rebirth of Roman culture in the Renaissance. ABITATO is a place of community, coexistence and creativity.

The United Nations the SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) are being increasingly implemented around the world by small and large communities, in order to maintain a healthier and more equitable planet. Italy leads the way in this trend, as sustainable movements are being promoted among local governments, companies and individuals. In the food sector, which is central to Italy’s national identity, many young, enthusiastic farmers and chefs – from Michelin star restaurants to prison training programs – are committed to working for environmental and social reforms.
