The Ukrainian diaspora in Italy plays a significant role in strengthening ties between Ukraine and the European Union. Its activities cover a wide range of areas aimed at supporting the economic, cultural and social development of both the Ukrainian community abroad and the home country.
The Coordination Centre actively promotes the involvement of the Ukrainian diaspora in economic exchanges between Ukraine and Italy. Taking part in the forum, which discussed diaspora development and attracting investment, demonstrates the Centre’s role in supporting business initiatives and entrepreneurship among Ukrainians in Italy.
