Italian communities abroad

CONI’s Delegates Abroad in the countries with a strong Italian presence.

CONI appoints Delegates Abroad in the main countries of Italian emigration to promote sports culture and participation within Italian communities abroad.

The Delegates organise sports initiatives and events such as the National Sports Day and the Trofeo CONI, in the summer and winter editions, for young people of Italian descent, working with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the "Turismo delle Radici" project.

The appointments were renewed on 29 October 2025 for the 2025-2028 Olympic cycle.
