Signed Framework Agreement of the Italian Network of Geological Services

The Italian Network of Geological Services (RISG) is a coordination network between Ispra and the Regions, Autonomous Provinces and ARPA having competence in the geological field at regional level.

The RISG was born in 2018 starting from the reorganization of the Geological Coordination Committee between the State and the Regions, established in 2000 (Law 365/2000); the reorganization envisaged a Network structure divided into two levels: a strategic level represented by the Board of Directors and a technical level represented by the Thematic Tables, both supported by a Technical Secretariat.

Over the years, 13 RISG Thematic Tables have been established in the various sectors of geology.

In recent days, a Framework Agreement was stipulated between ISPRA and the Regions and Autonomous Provinces that are part of the RISG with the aim of defining an institutional framework for collaborations between Network subjects and simplifying the formalization of activities.
