“NEW” SUPPORT FOR EMIGRANTS

The association has become a focal point and a renewed way of guaranteeing assistance to the emigrates and it is no longer only an intermediary between the migrants and the region, but also the promoter and supporter of new visions and of the diversification in socially useful engagements. In fact, as well as providing support such as social and medical assistance and scholarships for the Trentini descendants, who find themselves in financial difficulties, the organization takes part in initiatives that not only help the individual in need, but also support and assist in realizing projects which promote the social and economical development of the area in which the migrants live. 48 projects, which have been delivered, have helped the creation of new jobs, the promotion of co-operation and integration and have highlighted the importance of the attachments to the values of one’s motherland. These projects (as it will be shown in more details later) have mainly been implemented in South America, especially in agriculture and zootechny.

EMIGRANTS: PAST AND PRESENT PROBLEMS

In the past the association – showing sensitivity and capacity in understanding the problems of the Trentini communities abroad – has organized several meetings and conferences, and has published specific material to further the knowledge of the problems faced by emigrants. Sometimes this has lead to proposals and resolutions that solved specific problems (from citizenship to national insurance). Currently, the association helps people born in an emigrants’ family from Trentino retrieve information and paperwork for citizenship application. According to the law 379 of the year 2000, descendants from emigrates who originally came from the Italian territories of the Austro-Hungarian empire can obtain citizenship.

CIRCOLI (CLUBS) TRENTINI AND MEETING POINTS

The “Trentini nel mondo” connects over 200 clubs in the world.
The Trentini Clubs are not only recreation centres: they are active social and cultural centres. Their aims are the protection of the rights of the citizens from Trentino and the promotion of cultural and linguistic diversity.
The Clubs members are invited to and encourage to have an active role in the local activities, so to be able to play a significant role in the protection of their co-nationals’ rights and promote cultural and linguistic diversity.
The association has always promoted and encouraged the need for co-operation and co-participation in projects and activities among the Trentini expatriates and the indigenous population in order to avoid isolation from the rest of the society in which they live. The Association and the clubs encourage and support any form of cultural and social exchange promoting integration of both elderly and young people. In particular, the “Trentini nel mondo” believes in the need to create the right conditions and help the younger generations in being part of two or more societies and promoting international co-existence and co-operation to enable a multi- and intercultural society to become a reality.

INFORMATION

The magazine “TRENTINI NEL MONDO” is the association official mean of communication, published from 1958 and distributed monthly to 12’000 readers worldwide. This publication allows expatriates to keep informed and give information on the socio-economic situation, culture and history of both Trentino and other countries where the migrants reside.
