    If your roots lie in the Ligurian mountains and you want to better understand the customs and practices of your ancestors, the transhumance of Santo Stefano D'Aveto is an unmissable event. It is an experience both for those who love the mountains and the rediscovery of ancient traditions, and for families who want to spend a day in contact with nature in a welcoming and genuine atmosphere like the one you breathe in the small villages of the valley.

    LericiPea Poetry Prize "Ligurians in the World"

    Annual

    The "LericiPea Gulf of Poets" is one of the most representative Italian and international literary awards and aims to enhance poetry. Structured in several sections, it also includes the one dedicated to Ligurians in the World, to respond and give value to the requests of Ligurians who "emigrated" or lived abroad, who sent their compositions to the secretariat. The section immediately had the decisive contribution of the then Department of Labor and Emigration of the Liguria Region, which, understanding the importance of this project, still supports it today.
