AITRA - Associazione Italiana Trasparenza e Anticorruzione

What AITRA - Associazione Italiana Trasparenza e Anticorruzione does

AITRA (Associazione Italiana Trasparenza e Anticorruzione) is an Italian non-profit association founded on June 12, 2015 under Articles 36 et seq. of the Italian Civil Code. It is the only national association specifically dedicated to bringing together professionals who serve or have served as Responsible for Anti-Corruption Prevention (RPC) and Transparency Officer (RT) roles under Italian anti-corruption law L. 190/2012, as well as practitioners in GRC (governance, risk, compliance) functions supporting those roles across public administration, state-owned enterprises, and private companies.

The association operates on a subscription membership model with three tiers: individual effective members (€100/year), young members under 35 (€50/year), and supporting legal entities (€500/year), plus a one-time €50 enrollment fee. Revenue is non-profit and modest in scale. Its core services include peer networking, exclusive events and conferences across Italian cities (Rome, Milan, Turin), training and professional development (including patronage of TopLegal Academy Executive Masters), webinars on emerging regulatory topics (whistleblowing, AI governance, NIS 2 cybersecurity, pay transparency), the 360 Integrity & Transparency recognition initiative with compliancedesign.it, and direct institutional dialogue — notably a 2025 Protocol of Understanding with ANAC.

AITRA is governed by an Assembly of members through a Board of Directors, a Scientific Committee chaired by Consigliere di Stato Stefano Toschei, a Board of Probiviri, and a Board of Auditors. The 2025 leadership transition brought Mauro Annibali in as President succeeding Giorgio Martellino (now President Emeritus). Membership growth is community-led through website enrollment, professional referrals, and event participation. The association does not develop or sell technology products; its distribution model is direct, self-serve membership plus event-driven engagement with institutional partners including ANAC, AIGI, EY, BonelliErede, TIM, AIPSA, and Osservatorio Italiano Whistleblowing.
