Unione dei comuni Terre d'acqua, Municipal union in Emilia-Romagna, Italy.
The Terre d'aqua union is an administrative grouping of six independent municipalities in the Bologna area. It coordinates shared services including civil protection, social assistance, and technology management from its headquarters in San Giovanni Persiceto.
The union was created in 2012 to bring together six neighboring municipalities and streamline their administrative operations. This partnership allowed smaller towns to share resources and jointly manage their infrastructure and services.
The territory's name reflects its deep connection to water, which shapes how the local communities organize their settlements and daily rhythms. Traditions tied to farming and the waterways that cross the region remain visible in how people use public spaces and gather.
The central office in San Giovanni Persiceto is the main point for administrative matters and coordinates services for all six municipalities. Individual towns keep their own local offices, so visitors should contact the specific municipality they need to deal with for local issues.
The union runs a special program to help residents improve their digital skills through training and support services. It also operates a shared purchasing office that handles procurement for all member communities, reducing costs and simplifying processes.
