Participating in the events are the Governor of Sicily Hon. Raffaele Lombardo, the National Anti-Mafia Attorney Mr. Pietro Grasso, and well-known jurnalists, academics, and musicians from Italy and the U.S.

This year, ANFE's Regional Branch of Sicily, operating since the 1950s, is participating to the Columbus Day celebrations with an outstanding delegation and remarkable events.

Created to protect and support Italian emigrants and their communities throughout the world, today ANFE is increasingly committed to promote the social and cultural integration of immigrants in Italy, and to assist them in entering the labor market.

This year the main theme of the events organized by ANFE is "Legality."
