Patrizia Veclani
Patrizia Veclani is an Italian activist renowned for her efforts to preserve the heritage of Venice, particularly through her leadership of the group Poveglia per Tutti (Poveglia For Everyone). In response to the threat of the abandoned island of Poveglia being sold to private developers, she mobilized a grassroots campaign that raised funds to secure a 99-year lease for the island, transforming it into a locals-only urban park. Her advocacy reflects a deep commitment to reclaiming Venice from the pressures of overtourism and maintaining its cultural identity.
