Matera 2019 Committee
To put the city of Matera forward for European Capital of Culture means much more than simply having a good or attractive idea; to us it means developing a Combined Strategy, in which the entire population of Basilicata (about 600,000) should feel involved. With that in mind, the application is collectively supported by the main institutions of the region, the Committee of Matera 2019: Matera City Council, Basilicata Region, Potenza City Council, Province of Matera, Province of Potenza, the Chamber of Commerce of Matera and the University of Basilicata.
The Committee is an organisation, which will end its role when Italy chooses its representative city in 2019; the model of the Committee of Matera 2019 is structure as an "Aim Committee", according to the article 39 and ss. of the Civil Code.

Reedsy is a new sponsor of the WFF
Reedsy provides support through every stage of a book's production. We connect authors with vetted, industry-experienced editors, cover designers and publicists, and help them find the best partners for their project. We provide a purpose-built writing tool designed for collaborating closely with an editor on a manuscript. Then we take care of converting and posting the book directly to the Kindle Store, the iBookstore and the Kobo Store with a single click.
Reedsy streamlines self-publishing, making it easy for authors to compare freelancers, craft their book with the help of an editor and handle after-publication tasks like tracking sales and financial data. We eliminate the busywork and leave them free to do what they love: write.
Collaborative creation, publishing and promotion, all in one place. That's Reedsy.
