The issue of legality is central to the quality of public life in our country, to the health of our democracy, and of our economy.
To build a model of society where legality is the foundation and integral part of every citizen's life, the only possible option is social participation, shared by Territorial Pacts for Legality and Development, but monitored daily by the "sentinels" of civil society.
And above all, the decisive answer: work that helps strengthen the immune defenses of legality. And it is education, "good education," that is the best way to deprive the culture of illegality. We are committed to creating opportunities for discussion like today's conference, in local communities, schools, and workplaces, through programs promoting legality. As the foundations for the country's reconstruction are being laid, we believe it is essential to relaunch a strong message aimed at awakening civic consciences, fostering a widespread ethical outlook, and fostering a new generation of women and men committed to defending the dignity of the individual and of work.
