The Campania Region, with its 6 million inhabitants, is one of the most densily populated regions in Southern Italy. The region is renowned globally for its long and fascinating history, the ancient ruins, and the key position occupied in the Italian cultural panorama. Napoli, the regional capital, is a city of remarkable beauty, highly animated and surrounded by an extraordinary natural environment, with the famous volcanic cone of Mount Vesuvius and the deep blue waters of the Gulf of Naples flanked by spectacular coast lines such as the Amalfi coast (Positano, Amalfi and Ravello) and dotted with islands including Capri, Ischia and Procida with their pastel-coloured villages and small towns, nestled between the rocks and the sea. On an environmental level, the Campania Region promulgated Law n.14/2016 to establish an active undertaking geared towards the implementation of a model of circular economy, with associated aims of sustainable development and realization of the principles of a bioeconomy.
