This the third and last episode of “New Landlords”, the Cafébabel investigation on citizens reinvesting confiscated mafia assets. Across Italy, NGOs are now managing hundreds of reinvestments of former mafia assets. But activists, volunteers and NGOs regret a lack of support from public authorities.
"New Landlords: when Italian civil society moves in with the mafia" is the latest series from Cafébabel on citizens who are reinvesting goods confiscated from organised crime by the courts. How and why have projects been created for the common good in places which, in the past, have served the interests of the mafia? In the second part of this investigation, we explore the city of Genoa.
