Italy is among the five largest contributing countries to the OSCE both financially and in terms of human resources made available to the Organization. These simple figures alone highlight the prominent role of Italy within the OSCE. However, little is known about a number of activities in certain sectors and countries in which Italy, often through the funding of specific projects, is involved. This publication provides information about the OSCE and the role Italy plays today and has played in the past within the Organization. Stefano Baldi, Massimo Drei and Vito Mosè Pierro are the Italian diplomats currently working at the Permanent Mission of Italy to the OSCE in Vienna.
