The cycle of conferences, entitled “Confiscated Goods, between disuse and reuse: an international issue” and organized to honor the memory of Pio la Torre, ended on March 17th, 2022 .

The last meeting – whose title is named after a European project – “Good(s) Monitoring, Europe! and the Europe of social reuse” focused on the current legislation in some European countries on the seizure, confiscation and reuse of the assets of organized crime and in addition, analyzed their reuse for social purposes by associations and cooperatives.
