Green Italy (Italian: Green Italia, GI) is a green political party in Italy.
The party was founded in June 2013 by a heterogeneous group of politicians, notably including Monica Frassoni (co-spokesperson of the European Green Party and former independent MEP of the Federation of the Greens), Fabio Granata and Flavia Perina (former members and deputies of the Italian Social Movement, National Alliance, The People of Freedom and Future and Freedom), Roberto Della Seta and Francesco Ferrante (former senators of the Democratic Party and former leaders of Legambiente), Marco Boato, Fiorello Cortiana and Anna Donati (former Green MPs; Boato, a former Radical, is still an active member of that party), as well as green economy entrepreneurs, intellectuals and activists.[1][2][3] Granata left the party in November 2017 to join Diventerà Bellissima for the 2017 Sicilian regional election.
For the 2014 European Parliament election the party presented joint lists with the Greens, under the name Green Italy – European Greens.[4][5] The list obtained a mere 0.9% of the vote—and 6.0% among Italians abroad.[6] In the municipal election of Padua Francesco Fiore, a member of GI's national board,[3] came fourth with 9.9% at the head of a civic list.[7]
In the 2019 European Parliament election the party will run again along with the Federation of the Greens as Green Europe.
