Poverty and work, the councilors of Palermo write to Conte
A call against poverty and for new labor policies “to guarantee that segment of the population that for the most diverse reasons, due to the health crisis linked to Covid-19, runs the risk of social exclusion and, in fact, marginalization” is what that the Councilors for Social Policy of Palermo, Naples and Perugia addressed President Giuseppe Conte and several ministers today.
“We are aware – Giuseppe Mattina, Monica Buonanno and Edi Cicchi write – that new restrictive measures are undoubtedly necessary to counteract the resurgence of the virus in our country. However, we believe it necessary to bring to your attention a broader reflection on the measures taken towards those who are in a state of social and economic difficulty: we are talking about that segment of the population that for the most diverse reasons is in risk of social exclusion, of those who live on the margins, of the “new poor” to whom this pandemic is helping to define “.
According to the three municipal councilors, “the geography of socioeconomic distress has changed, the already known weaknesses have become more complex and alongside them new types of poverty and social exclusion have emerged as a consequence of the decline of non-typified forms of work, the reduction in the quality of quantitative consumption, the conditions of material deprivation, the increase in socio-psychological health discomfort due to the state of isolation “and they emphasize that” tomorrow will be too late if it is not possible to think about the future, beyond the pandemic, to focus political measures against precariousness and illegal work and that allow access to work and basic care even in the most marginal situations, with a national plan to reactivate the labor market and, at the same time, align ourselves with all the European Civil countries with the universal measure of income support without neglecting the maintenance and consolidation of health care services. basic and social aria “.
In the letter addressed to the prime minister and ministers, “a firm stance is also requested so that our country can also provide itself with a measure to support poverty and at the same time with an extraordinary plan for work and against precarious work and strengthening of the citizen income system, an extremely useful measure that has supported hundreds of thousands of families but that must be improved, refined and registered in the context of generative well-being, expanding it with a precise plan against precariousness, exploitation and work black with a structured set of services and measures for work where it is taken into account that strengthening work also means having the ability to support companies and all productive activities in general ”.

Finally, Mattina, Buonanno and Cicchi focus on how today “it is essential that politics look not only at immediate responses but also at medium-long term. There are experiences of change, of people who are inventing opportunities, and they are important, but We run the risk of limiting ourselves to telling stories that put these whiteflies on altars. Instead, we do not need altars or stages. We need to activate a community process that activates change based on political responsibilities, that activates and coordinates legal processes, movement and development of our territories “
