There are over 5 million foreign residents in Italy (8.2% of the population), and 52.7% of them are women. They are mainly Rumanians, Albanians and Moroccans (taken together, the three nationalities account for 41.3% of the total), even if there are as many as 198 different nationalities in Italy. Nearly 60% of them live in the North. The regions with the highest number are Lombardy (23%), Lazio (12.7%), Emilia Romagna (10.7%) and Veneto (10.2%). These are the 2015’s figures that are on the background of the XXV Report on Immigration of Caritas Italy and Fondazione Migrantes presented in Rome today, 500 pages that tell about the foreign population living in Italy, as a structural phenomenon in all social areas. This year’s theme is “The culture of encounter” to tell about integration in the regions and point out that Italy is “much more than this recent story of forced migrants”. In absolute numbers, foreign residents in the EU-28 are 35.2 million, 3.6% more than in 2014. 21.5% of them live in Germany, 15.4% in the United Kingdom, 14.3% in Italy, 12.4% in France. Strange enough, the number of foreign residents in Spain has decreased by 4.8%. In 2014, Italy granted Italian citizenship to 129,887 people, which is a 29% rise. Most of them are Moroccans and Albanians, who have been living in Italy for longer.
