PALERMO (ITALPRESS) - "Sicuramente Palermo è collegata ancor di più con altre città e centri turistici importanti: penso a Cefalù, Taormina e Agrigento Capitale della Cultura. Sono flussi turistici che si incrementano e quindi è una circolazione di visitatori che potranno ammirare molto più facilmente le città d'arte". Lo ha detto il vicesindaco di Palermo, Giampiero Cannella, partecipando alla presentazione alla Stazione centrale del capoluogo siciliano delle novità del Regionale, nuovo brand di Trenitalia.fsc/mca1/gsl
Alimentari e stop. L' elenco dei settori industriali in crescita nel 2024 termina già qui, racconto succinto di un anno da dimenticare, che per l industria nazionale si chiude decisamente peggio rispetto agli esordi dello scorso gennaio. Dicembre evidenzia infatti nei dati Istat una caduta corale, per un calo del 7,1% su base annua (solo ai tempi del Covid era andata peggio), del 3,1% rispetto a novembre. Per la produzione industriale salgono così a 23 i mesi di caduta consecutiva nel dato tendenziale, quasi due anni in apnea suggellati dalla rilevazione di dicembre, che consente di tirare le somme su un 2024 non certo brillante. Discesa che in termini di incassi per la manifattura è stimata in 42 miliardi di euro e che dal lato produttivo vede una frenata media del 3,5%, secondo arretramento annuo consecutivo dopo il - 2% del 2023. Il dato Istat risente anche delle scelte effettuate da numerose aziende, che in mancanza di lavoro hanno preferito prolungare la pausa natalizia, anticipando lo stop e posticipando comunque la riapertura di qualche giorno a gennaio. Scelte che hanno lasciato il segno nelle statistiche. Ne parliamo con Gregorio De Felice, capo economista e responsabile Studi e Ricerche di Intesa Sanpaolo.Banche: nel mezzo del risiko, il 2024 è stato un altro anno record. Balzo utile per i primi 5 gruppi grazie alle commissioniUn altro anno d oro per le banche italiane. I primi cinque gruppi (Intesa Sanpaolo, Unicredit, Banco Bpm, Mps, Bper) archiviano il 2024 con ricavi e utili in forte crescita (proventi operativi +5,6% e risultato netto +7,2%) rispetto all anno precedente, nonostante la discesa dei tassi avviata dalla Bce a partire da giugno. A trainare i conti sono le commissioni nette (+8%), che registrano una performance nettamente superiore a quella degli interessi netti (+4,6%), invertendo lo schema affermatosi nel 2023. Ancor più significativi gli aumenti per le commissioni su attività di gestione, intermediazione e consulenza. E quanto emerge dall analisi della Fondazione Fiba di First Cisl sui bilanci del 2024.Al termine del 2023 le commissioni nette avevano fatto segnare un calo del 2,4% rispetto all anno precedente. La forte ripresa che si è registrata nel 2024 va evidentemente ascritta alla volontà delle banche di compensare la riduzione del margine d interesse aumentando i ricavi derivanti dal risparmio gestito. Il dato sulle commissioni nette è correlato alla forte dinamica della raccolta indiretta, aumentata del 9,3%. Tale crescita si riscontra in entrambe le componenti, sia il risparmio gestito che la raccolta amministrata, senza andare a scapito della raccolta diretta (+ 1,3%). Interviene sul tema Riccardo Colombani, segretario generale First Cisl.Milano-Cortina si presenta al festival di SanRemoSi è acceso il countdown ufficiale che segna l ultima volata verso le Olimpiadi e le Paralimpiadi invernali di Milano Cortina, che si terranno dal 6 al 22 febbraio 2026. A un anno dai Giochi iniziano i primi test event per collaudare e simulare l organizzazione delle gare. Dopo l'intervento di ieri di Gianmarco Tamberi, stasera sul palco dell'Ariston Carolina Kostner racconterà come partirà la fiaccola olimpica. I 365 giorni che mancano all arrivo della fiamma a San Siro sono fondamentali anche per la consegna degli impianti e delle infrastrutture. Sui primi c è il nodo degli extracosti da 120 milioni di euro, che il governo dovrebbe sciogliere a breve. Sulle seconde si corre, sapendo che non tutte saranno pronte in tempo. Il 15 gennaio si è chiusa la pre-registrazione alla piattaforma di vendita, a cui si sono iscritte 350.000 persone (il 70 per cento straniere). Sono 1,6 milioni i ticket disponibili, con prezzi che sono stati studiati per garantire l accessibilità alla maggior parte delle gare: il 20 per cento costerà meno di 40 euro, mentre il 57 per cento sarà sotto i 100 euro. Oltre, ci sono le esperienze premium, dove si spazia tra cifre anche a tre zeri arrivando a 7.500 euro. Il commento al microfono di Sebastiano Barisoni è di Andrea Varnier, amministratore delegato della Fondazione Milano-Cortina 2026.
Come si vive a Cuba oggi stretta tra il Bloqueo - l'embargo commerciale, economico e finanziario imposto dagli Stati Uniti che si mantiene da oltre 60 anni – le difficoltà a rilanciarsi dopo la crisi del turismo che ha investito l'isola negli anni della Pandemia e la violenza degli eventi naturali? Le cronache che ci arrivano da Cuba, forse troppo poco spesso ribattute e sottolineate dai media del resto del mondo, parlano di un paese in cui manca di tutto, ma soprattutto sembrerebbe mancare la prospettiva, la fiducia nel futuro. Ancor di più oggi con il ritorno di Donald Trump alla Casa Bianca. Di Cuba vogliamo parlare oggi dunque, dei rapporti con il nemico di sempre (gli Stati Uniti) e delle relazioni con gli amici di un tempo, Russia e Cina in primis ma anche Venezuela o della solidarietà che questo Paese raccoglie anche dalla Svizzera. E della forza del dissenso che ancora non sfocia in un movimento politico fors'anche per paura di diventare un pezzo di mondo occidentale. Cercheremo per quanto possibile anche di guardare al futuro di Cuba e dei cubani e lo faremo con tre ospiti Beppe Savary, membro di comitato dell'Associazione amici Svizzera-Cuba, già fondatore di Aiuto medico al centro america e appartenente anche a Medi-Cuba SvizzeraRoberto Livi, corrispondente da Cuba per Il Manifesto Roberto Da Rin, giornalista del Sole 24ore, già corrispondente e inviato per l'America latina intervista registrata a Yanelis Despaigne, docente di sociologia all'Università dell'Avana
Tutto nel Mondo è Burla - E io vi canto ancor
L'anno che si è appena concluso, il 2024, è stato il più caldo di sempre. Ancor più caldo del 2023 che già aveva fatto registrare il record. Questi dati ci arrivano dai report scientifici del Servizio cambiamento climatico di Copernicus, il programma di osservazione della Terra dell'Unione europea. Ogni giorno Copernicus e gli altri satelliti europei ci restituiscono decine di milioni di dati provenienti dallo Spazio che servono per monitorare il clima, le calamità naturali e l'evoluzione di tutti gli ambienti terrestri. Quali sono le principali applicazioni? Chiara Albicocco ne parla con Carlo Buontempo, Direttore del Servizio Cambiamento Climatico del Programma Copernicus; Simonetta Cheli, Direttrice dei Programmi di osservazione della Terra dell'Agenzia Spaziale europea e Mauro Facchini, responsabile del Programma Copernicus della Commissione.Foto: copyright ESA
Il nuovo anno è dietro l'angolo e, come sempre, arriva il momento di fare la lista dei buoni propositi. Ma quante volte ci siamo bloccati ancora prima di iniziare? In questa puntata voglio parlare proprio di questo: gli ostacoli che ci mettiamo davanti da soli e come possiamo finalmente superarli. ✨
In this episode of the Friends for Life Podcast, we explore the challenges facing the direct support professional (DSP) workforce, despite recent increases in hourly wages. Although DSPs saw an average hourly wage of $15.79 nationwide in 2022—a historic first—the high turnover rate of over 40% continues to strain disability service providers, who are struggling to maintain adequate staff. Many providers report having to refuse new referrals or reduce services, highlighting the urgent need for sustainable workforce solutions. Temporary support from the 2021 American Rescue Plan provided essential funding to boost wages, but this relief is set to expire in 2025, raising concerns about long-term stability in the field. Barbara Merrill, CEO of ANCOR, and Armando Contreras, president of United Cerebral Palsy, emphasize the critical need for more consistent support to ensure DSPs receive competitive compensation and people with developmental disabilities can access essential services without prolonged delays. With over half a million individuals still on waiting lists for services, the conversation underscores how years of underinvestment in Medicaid have limited providers' ability to address the workforce crisis fully, jeopardizing the right of people with disabilities to live independently in their communities.
Lunghissima e tortuosa è stata la strada che ha condotto Silvia Montini ed il consorte Fabio alla residenza permanente. "Siamo passati sotto le forche caudine, ma ne siamo usciti vincitori".
Le cittadinanze italiane riconosciute per ius sanguinis, ossia per il fatto di avere fra i propri antenati un italiano, superano quelle acquisite da stranieri non comunitari con tutte le altre modalità. In crescita da anni, nel 2023 si possono stimare in almeno 190mila contro le 77mila acquisizioni di cittadinanza ottenute per residenza, le 22mila per matrimonio e le 59mila perché figli minori di un genitore diventato italiano. Non esistono numeri complessivi sulle cittadinanze riconosciute per sangue , ma Il Sole 24 Ore del Lunedì ha ricostruito l entità del fenomeno.Circa 100mila riconoscimenti sono stati effettuati da Comuni e tribunali. La stima è dell Istat e si basa sull indagine conoscitiva svolta quest anno dall Associazione nazionale degli ufficiali di Stato civile e dell anagrafe (Anusca) cui l istituto ha fornito supporto metodologico e operativo. Dai dati dei 5.019 Comuni che hanno aderito (il 63,5% dei 7.901 totali) emerge che, grazie allo ius sanguinis, nel 2023 la cittadinanza italiana è stata riconosciuta a 61.328 persone. Secondo l Istat se si considerassero anche i dati degli enti locali che non hanno risposto si supererebbe quota 100mila: molti di più dei 26mila nuovi cittadini ius sanguinis transitati per le anagrafi italiane.Ci sono poi i riconoscimenti effettuati dai consolati italiani all estero, dove le pratiche spiegano dal ministero degli Esteri sono cresciute in modo esponenziale negli ultimi dieci anni: nel 2022 sono stati emessi 89.791 atti di cittadinanza, il 28% in più dei 70.073 del 2021, a loro volta in crescita del 54,8% rispetto al 2020. I riconoscimenti del 2023 potrebbero quindi anche essere più di 190mila, tanto che per mappare l entità del fenomeno l Istat avvierà dal prossimo anno una rilevazione obbligatoria presso tutti i Comuni.Alla base dei numeri c è il fatto che la legge italiana permette il riconoscimento della cittadinanza per diritto di sangue senza limiti generazionali: in pratica è possibile ottenerla risalendo l albero genealogico e facendo valere la presenza di un avo italiano.Non sono richiesti altri requisiti perché, a differenza della cittadinanza per residenza o matrimonio, si tratta di accertare un diritto. Né è necessario risiedere in Italia, tanto che la maggior parte dei nuovi cittadini per discendenza si trova all estero.Una situazione che ha portato il ministro degli Esteri, Antonio Tajani, a parlare della «necessità di rivedere la norma che concede la cittadinanza per diritto di sangue», sottolineando che «in molti casi si tratta di persone che vogliono solo un passaporto». Ancor di più visto che il passaporto italiano è il secondo più forte nel mondo (permette l accesso senza visto a 192 Paesi) dopo quello di Singapore (Passport Index di Henley & Partners su dati Iata).Il commento di Bianca Lucia Mazzei, Il Sole 24 Ore e Laura Zanfrini, sociologa delle migrazioni, professore ordinario presso l'Università Cattolica di Milano.Volkswagen verso la chiusura di tre impianti, operai in subbuglioI lavoratori del Gruppo Volkswagen, in Germania, si fermano oggi per un ora, bloccando la produzione in segno di protesta contro il piano dell azienda che punta a chiudere alcuni stabilimenti nel Paese, mossa senza precedenti per il colosso automobilistico tedesco. Secondo quanto riportano alcuni media come Bild e die Welt, il consiglio di fabbrica del colosso dell auto tedesca ha annunciato che saranno chiusi tre impianti in Germania.I sindacati hanno organizzato assemblee in undici stabilimenti, dove aggiorneranno i dipendenti sui progressi delle trattative con l azienda. L inizio di queste proteste dà il via a una settimana cruciale per Volkswagen, che si prepara a pubblicare a metà settimana i risultati del terzo trimestre. Si prevede un calo sia nelle vendite che nei profitti.Come riportato dal quotidiano economico Handelsblatt, il consiglio di amministrazione del gruppo di Wolfsburg ha predisposto un piano di risparmio da circa 4 miliardi di euro. Tra le misure previste, c è una riduzione del 10% sugli stipendi e una sospensione degli aumenti salariali per il 2025 e 2026. Il ceo Oliver Blume giustifica queste scelte con i costi elevati legati al marchio Volkswagen, che si trova a fronteggiare una domanda in calo in Europa e una forte concorrenza da parte di BYD, ormai primo produttore globale di auto elettriche e ibride plug-in, in Cina.I sindacati, però, non ci stanno e puntano il dito contro il management, accusandolo di scaricare sui lavoratori le conseguenze di scelte discutibili: una transizione verso l elettrico gestita male e politiche di prezzo poco incisive. «La dirigenza non ha ancora presentato un piano chiaro per il futuro di Volkswagen», ha commentato Daniela Cavallo, presidente del consiglio di fabbrica, in una newsletter.L'intervento di Alessandro Plateroti, nuovo Direttore di NewsMondo.it a Focus Economia al microfono di Sebastiano Barisoni.Assemblea Federchimica: serve più chimica per realizzare la transizione ecologicaL'industria chimica oggi in Italia vale 67 miliardi di euro e quasi 40 miliardi di export, con oltre 2.800 imprese e 112 mila addetti. Secondo uno studio realizzato da The European House Ambrosetti e presentato oggi nel corso dell Assemblea di Federchimica (Federazione nazionale dell Industria chimica) dal titolo L industria Chimica come Competenza abilitante per il Made In Italy e per lo Sviluppo Sostenibile, però, una politica industriale a favore del settore potrebbe portare una crescita del comparto. Secondo le stime pubblicate nello studio infatti, si parlerebbe di 22,2 miliardi di valore aggiunto e un beneficio economico a tutto il sistema manifatturiero che varrebbe 33,3 miliardi di euro, oltre che decine di migliaia di nuovi posti di lavoro.Permarrebbero però le criticità dei settori, esposti agli alti costi dell energia e delle materie prime che hanno subito una continua perdita di competitività ormai strutturale (il costo del gas storicamente circa 4 volte superiori rispetto altre aeree).Lo studio rappresenta una proposta corale che tutte le parti sociali di settore mettono a disposizione del Governo per promuovere iniziative a favore di un settore strategico come la Chimica. Dopo due anni consecutivi di contrazione (-4,1% nel 2022 e -6,7% nel 2023), per il 2024 si prevede una sostanziale stabilizzazione della produzione chimica in Italia (+0,5%). Il commento di Francesco Buzzella, Presidente Federchimica a Focus Economia.
Il caso Stellantis che tiene banco dopo l'audizione di Carlos Tavares alla Camera di venerdì scorso, durante la quale il gruppo italo-francese ha chiesto all'Italia nuovi incentivi. Una richiesta che ha sollevato le reazioni della politica. E non solo. Intervenendo alla trasmissione "Amici e nemici", su Radio24, il segretario generale della Cgil Maurizio Landini ha ricordato che gli incentivi non hanno funzionato: a fronte di 950 milioni di euro già erogati, Stellantis ha aumentato la cassa integrazione e diminuito la produzione in Italia. Landini ha anche chiesto un intervento di Palazzo Ghigi. Ancor più diretto è stato il presidente di Confindustria, Emanuele Orsini: «La richiesta di Stellantis di ulteriori incentivi è una pazzia», ha detto il numero uno di Viale dell'Astronomia a margine della convention di Capri organizzata dai Giovani di Confindustria. Intanto oggi è tornato a parlare Carlos Tavares, Ceo di Stellantis, durante la prima giornata del Mondial de l'Auto, il Salone dell'auto di Parigi: "Altri hanno creato il caos e voi chiedete a me di risolvere la situazione e di garantire posti di lavoro. Non sono un mago, sono un essere umano come voi. Voi mi chiedete di risolvere problemi creati da altri, per risolvere quelle situazioni potrei dovere fare cose che non saranno accolte bene". Il Ceo ha risposto a chi chiedeva se fosse in grado di garantire che non saranno tagliati posti di lavoro all'interno del gruppo.Il commento di Paolo Bricco, Il Sole 24 Ore.Boing tra crisi e scioperi si avvicina al licenziamento di massa (e a una crisi di liquidità)Boeing, nella bufera di crisi e scioperi, vola verso licenziamenti di massa: nei prossimi mesi eliminerà 17.000 posti di lavoro, a tutti i livelli, pari al 10% dei suoi dipendenti. Accanto ai tagli, il colosso aerospaziale ha ammesso nuovi ritardi nel decollo del progetto di un nuovo, grande velivolo per le rotte internazionali, il 777X, che, avviato nel 2013, ha da tempo sfondato ogni budget e traguardo. Ora è slittato al 2026 dal 2025. Sarà inoltre cancellato dal 2027, in nome dell'austerity, uno dei modelli finora più noti della sua flotta: la versione cargo del 767.La società americana non fa profitti dal 2018 e secondo il New York Times a breve dovrebbe annunciare ricavi per 17,8 miliardi di dollari, con perdite di 10 dollari per azione. Il suo debito è salito a 58 miliardi, ossia nove in più di un decennio fa. Le decisioni sulla produzione, annunciate dal nuovo chief executive Kelly Ortberg, si tradurranno in oneri straordinari per 5 miliardi di dollari: tre miliardi per gli interventi sui programmi civili che si sommeranno a 2 miliardi di svalutazioni anche nel settore della Difesa, dove Boeing, uno dei principali fornitori del Pentagono, ha a sua volta incontrato difficoltà. A conti fatti, l'azienda ha avvertito che dovrà contabilizzare perdite trimestrali per 6 miliardi.Lo sciopero in atto da cinque settimane da parte di 30.000 tecnici e ingegneri del gruppo, con in gioco il contratto, si è aggiunto alle sfide. L'agitazione, secondo alcune stime, da sola costa al gruppo oltre un miliardo al mese. I negoziati sono nell'impasse: Boeing ha accusato il sindacato di malafede; le union hanno risposto che è Boeing a non trattare con trasparenza. «Il ceo Ortberg ha fatto sapere uno dei leader dello sciopero - ha l'opportunità di agire diversamente, invece di ricorrere a minacce e intimidazioni».È stato ospite a Focus Economia Alessandro Plateroti, nuovo Direttore di NewsMondo.it Il dibattito sul colonialismo torna attuale con il Nobel a Acemoglu, Johnson e Robinson Il premio Nobel per l economia 2024 va a Daren Acemoglu, Simon Johnson, entrambi del Mit di Boston, e James A. Robinson della University of Chicago per gli studi su come le istituzioni si formano e influenzano la prosperità. I tre economisti hanno dimostrato che una buona parte della differenza nella ricchezza e nello sviluppo degli stati dipende da come funzionano le istituzioni. Società con uno scarso stato di diritto e istituzioni fragili non riescono a generare crescita e cambiamento, e i loro studi sono in gran parte volti a capire perché questo avvenga. "Ridurre le enormi differenze di reddito tra i Paesi è una delle maggiori sfide del nostro tempo. I vincitori", ha detto Jakob Svensson, presidente del Comitato per il Premio di Scienze Economiche, "hanno dimostrato l importanza delle istituzioni sociali per raggiungere questo obiettivo».«Quando gli europei colonizzarono ampie zone del mondo, le istituzioni di quelle società cambiarono. Questo cambiamento è stato a volte drammatico, ma non si è verificato ovunque nello stesso modo. In alcuni luoghi l obiettivo era sfruttare la popolazione indigena ed estrarre risorse a vantaggio dei colonizzatori. In altri, i colonizzatori hanno creato sistemi politici ed economici inclusivi per il beneficio a lungo termine degli immigrati europei», si legge nella nota a dell Academy che spiega la ricerca dei tre economisti. «I vincitori hanno dimostrato che una spiegazione delle differenze di prosperità dei Paesi è data dalle istituzioni sociali introdotte durante la colonizzazione. Le istituzioni inclusive sono state spesso introdotte in Paesi che erano poveri al momento della colonizzazione e, nel tempo, hanno portato a una popolazione generalmente prospera. Questo è un motivo importante per cui le ex colonie un tempo ricche sono ora povere e viceversa.Il commento di Mario Deaglio, docente Economia Internazionale Università di Torino, al microfono di Sebastiano Barisoni.

Their comments are punctuated with expertise from Dr. Hassan Abdulhaqq, Chief Human Resources Officer at AABR, Inc.

Recently, ANCOR & UCP released the Case for Inclusion 2024. This report examines how well state programs are supporting people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. New data and analysis revealed that improvements had been made, but are currently tenuous, as they were largely the result of temporary pandemic-era funding. So we spoke with Erica Smith Buchanan, executive director at CADENCE of Acadiana about what that means on the ground, and for the day-to-day lives of people with disabilities in the state of Louisiana. She gets real about the challenges, but is hopeful, because the link between progress and funding has never been clearer.

In questo secondo episodio lo storico Claudio Vercelli spiega che la Storia dello Stato d'Israele è costellata di guerre, proprio per la questione della sua legittimità. Vercelli traccia il percorso dei conflitto arabo-israelo-palestinese dal 1949 a oggi, passando per trattati, interventi diplomatici, momentanee tregue e soprattutto analizzando le molte guerre causate dalla non legittimazione reciproca dei due interlocutori. Infine lo storico sottolinea analogie e differenze tra i territori della Striscia di Gaza e quelli della Cisgiordania, specialmente in rapporto al movimento di Hamas.In questo podcast, lo storico contemporaneo Claudio Vercelli, racconta le tappe fondamentali della vicenda di Israele. Vercelli ha scritto, per la casa editrice Giuntina, “Israele. Storia dello Stato” e nella prefazione scrive: “Israele è nel cuore e nelle menti dei contemporanei, suscitando passioni e identificazioni, simpatie ma anche rifiuti e dinieghi. Della sua storia, in Italia, si sa ben poco. Ancor meno sono conosciute le ragioni, gli eventi, i fatti che hanno portato alla nascita dello Stato degli ebrei durante un secolo, il Novecento, che ha visto mutare equilibri profondi”.https://storiainpodcast.focus.it - Canale Le questioni della StoriaA cura di Francesco De Leo.

Il violento attacco del movimento terroristico islamista Hamas contro gli ebrei di Israele, all'alba di sabato 7 ottobre 2023 – oltre 1.400 vittime, tantissimi feriti e 250 ostaggi – non ha precedenti e resterà una data indelebile nella storia dello stato di Israele.In questo primo episodio lo storico contemporaneo Claudio Vercell analizza la questione del territorio arabo-ebraico dall'Ottocento, partendo dalla dissoluzione dell'Impero ottomano che controllava quei territori, fino al protettorato britannico del 1923. Lo storico analizza le origini della convivenza tra comunità arabe musulmane, cristiane ed ebree, spiegando, dal punto di vista storico, il significato della parola sionismo e degli Yishuv, insediamenti ebraici nel territorio che risalgono alla fine dell'Ottocento. Lo storico conclude spiegando come la risoluzione Onu del 1947 che determinò, nel 1948, la nascita di Israele, fu il risultato di un complesso processo storico, che ebbe un ruolo decisivo sul destino di quel territorio arabo-ebraico ancora oggi conteso.In questo podcast, lo storico contemporaneo Claudio Vercelli, racconta le tappe fondamentali della vicenda di Israele.
