It is with profound sadness that we learn of the passing of Alessandro Perelli, a former Vice President and esteemed Governing Board Member of ALDA. For a long time Alessandro represented the Friuli-Venezia Giulia Region in the Governing Board of the Association, where he served in the European integration, international relations and financial management Service.

Alessandro’s contributions to the Organisation and his unwavering commitment to the promotion of local democracy will be remembered by all who had the privilege of working alongside him.

During his tenure at ALDA, Alessandro played a crucial role in contributing to the Organisation’s vision and strategic direction, especially for what concerns the Balkans and the Mediterranean, geographical areas particularly relevant to him.

His work was marked by a deep dedication to empowering local communities, fostering cooperation, and enhancing citizen participation in governance. He was a passionate advocate for democratic values, tirelessly working to strengthen local democracy through innovative programs and initiatives.

The thoughts and condolences of the entire ALDA community are with Alessandro’s family and loved ones during this difficult time. His memory will live on through the many projects and initiatives he helped bring to life, and through the countless people whose lives he touched.
