"Expo and Territories" is a new initiative promoted by Italian Government in parallel with Expo 2015. Its main aim is to connect the universal exposition to the beauties of Italian territories. In particular, this initiative involves 19 regions and stands as a chance to put in evidence the richness of Italian resources (both cultural and environmental) and well as the skills of Made in Italy, promoting them internationally.
To do so, every ministry involved will sponsor particular activities. The MIPAAF (Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies) supports the creation a promotional video for every region to be included in Expo Italian Pavilion as well as an innovative master on territorial development devoted to young people, who will become "scientific ambassadors". On the other hand, the MIBACT (Ministry of Cultural Heritage, Activities and Tourism) devoted 20 cultural sites (14 under the UNESCO's patronage) to host events linked to Expo 2015.
