(Finance) – TheItaly is not a country for young people, a claim that has become so famous and repeated that it has given rise to films and radio programs. But is it true or is it some sort of urban legend? Unfortunately it is true and, as always, it is the statistics that decree it: in twenty years Italy has lost over a fifth of its young, becoming last in Europe for the presence of under 35s; young people’s work is increasingly unstable and discontinuous, even in the public sector; only one voter in 5 is under 35, and young people elected to the Chamber fall below 7%.
The photograph dates back to last April, when the National Youth Councilie theItalian Youth Agency presented the new report “Youth 2024: Balance sheet of a generation”, on the condition of youth in Italy. A work to draw a detailed picture of the main challenges and opportunities that young Italians face today, while offering concrete ideas for future policies. The report made it clear that Italy is grappling with a far-reaching demographic challenge, highlighted by a significant decline in its young population. Over the last two decades, we have seen a reduction of almost 3.5 million young people under 35, with a decrease rate of approximately 21%.
Fortunately, positive stories persist under 30 who make their way, with perseverance and self-denial on a path paved by the difficulties mentioned above.
Titian Talarico it’s one of them. A well-known surname, at the center of the news these days for Giorgia Meloni’s choice to give the leaders of the last G7, hosted in Puglia at Borgo Egnazia, ties produced by the company founded by her father Maurizio. It is never easy to come from a family in which a parent has success and notoriety in his field, but Tiziano is an exception in this too; he cut his teeth in the company, studied, learned and gained experience and then freed himself from his father, taking and building his own different professional path.
In addition to the role of Sole Director in Talarico cravatte, where he interfaces on the commercial side with large customers and manages relationships with suppliers; Tiziano is also national president GI Conflavoro where he takes care of institutional relations to bring legislative proposals for the protection and help of Italian SMEs to the center of political discourse and of the various stakeholders. Conflavoro recently it has produced a programmatic document which consists of 8 points relating to proposals for improving the country: Taxes and Finance, Tourism-Culture and Entertainment, Work-Pensions and Welfare, Environment and Agriculture, Energy and Transport, Ict-Digital-telecommunications, Foreign- Security-Relations with the EU, Rights and Justice.
Titian’s story is therefore an invitation not to lose heart, nor to hide behind negative numbers and trends. Because Italy may not be a country for young people but it is a country that is still capable of giving spaces And satisfactions rewarding commitment and perseverance. Even those under 30.
