Corriere della Sera: “Lucia Azzolina among the 110 most important women of 2020, has put the school back at the center of politics”

For the Corriere della Sera, the Minister of Education, Lucia Azzolina, is among the 100 most important women in Italy in 2020.

Here is the portrait from the Milanese newspaper to present to the minister: “As a child she was told that she looked like Snow White, but Lucía Azzolina, born in Catania in 1982 in a” humble family, with modest cultural tools “, feels more like a” Cinderella “. Ever since she sat at Benedetto Croce’s desk, the Minister of Education has personally realized how this country treats public schools: as the protagonist of the fairy tale. In less than a year, the government had to defend itself against social targets and sexist attacks, which targeted it with language stumbling blocks and red lipstick. But she moved on and became a champion of the school she attended. To bring the high school boys to classes before Christmas, he clashed with ministers and governors (all men), sought the axis with Prime Minister Conte and the support of the Quirinal. He lost, but managed to put school back at the center of the political agenda. And who knows that the miracle of obtaining the maximum loan of “more than 20 billion”, with the recovery fund, a maximum loan of more than 25 billion “, will fail.
