COMITATO NO GRANDI NAVI | Action on waters

The committee No Big Cruiseship (Comitato No Grandi Navi) The battle for the expulsion of large ships from the San Marco Basin  and the lagoon must be participatory and involve as many movements and  citizens as possible, from Venice and Mestre. For this reason, the  coordination of the associations that has restarted the battle in recent  years have decided to change their skin, to give a precise signal of  novelty and discontinuity with the past.

The movement  changes its name: it is now called “No Grandi Navi Committee – Lagoon  Bene Comune”, where the reference to the lagoon is a precise choice of  content, because Venice does not exist without a healed and balanced  lagoon that defends it. For this reason, it is not enough to be  satisfied with not seeing the large ships in the San Marco Basin or with  seeing half of them: cruise tourism must be expelled from the lagoon to  allow the start of real hydrodynamic and morphological recovery  interventions;

The movement was born on a common platform of analysis  and requests, summarized in the “What We Ask” page. For further  information, we recommend reading our “White Paper”. Each individual  member of the Committee will maintain their own autonomy of initiatives,  as long as they do not conflict with the freely accepted common  platform;
