Welcome Irene!

The Amapola Infrastructure and Territorial Projects division
As part of the ecological transition, construction of new infrastructure plays a vital role: renewables facilities, for example, are essential to reduce the production of greenhouse gases and change production methods in general. Very often, however, these projects stall – or even reach a dead end – due to the opposition of local communities, who in many cases are not involved in the strategic development of the area. To support organisations that want to build new infrastructure in a territory and in parallel cultivate listening, dialogue and participation with the local community, Amapola has formed the Infrastructure and Territorial Projects. division. The team leader is Emilio Conti, a consultant with more than 30 years of experience in environmental communication projects, sustainability reporting and management of stakeholder relations.
