Descrizione:
The Municipality of Pescara is the local government of the city of Pescara, situated in Central Italy on the Adriatic coast. The city of Pescara has a territory of 34 square kilometres and is home to more than 120,000 inhabitants. Thanks to its social, economic and cultural role as a pivot for the whole Abruzzo Region, Pescara is the socio-economic hub and engine of growth for a sub-urban population of up to 250,000 inhabitants, mostly grouped in a plethora of smaller towns. As such, the Municipality of Pescara is able to represent the dynamics of both a city and surrounding rural areas. Moreover, the city of Pescara is on a trajectory of socio-economic transformation, thanks to the planned merger in 2023 with the neighbouring municipalities of Montesilvano (54,000 inhabitants) and Spoltore (20,000 inhabitants), which will position Pescara as the 14th largest city in Italy, as well as the third largest on the Adriatic after Bari and Venice. Thanks to its strategic position in the centre of Italy, Pescara is a logistic hub connecting the North and the South of the country, as well as the East and West coasts of Italy. The civil airport (unique in the region, Ryan Air hub), the port-canal, two railway stations and the Rome-Pescara motorway favour tertiary activities. The Municipality also has key collaborations with the education and training ecosystem, brokering partnerships with VET providers as well as the nationally important University, “Gabriele D’Annunzio”.
