Expats RE is a community project based in Reggio Emilia, which started in September 2020, open to like-minded people living in the same area who are driven by a passion for intercultural exchange, life experiences and travel abroad. Expats RE welcomes both locals and internationals, eager to meet new people, discover new cultures, network and improve their language skills. Local members are a great addition to the community as they allow internationals to integrate into the community faster while also giving them a more authentic experience of their stay abroad.

After having long dreamed of a gathering space for the community, Expats RE has finally obtained it thanks to the help of the Municipality of Reggio Emilia, which has foreseen the value that this community can add to the city. On the last 17th of September, the space opened for the international community and it’s managed together with Rigenera social cooperative and the residents of the Gattaglio area.
The co-working space initiative was funded by the project "Lavoro.Vita.Benessere" from the Emilia-Romagna Region and supported by the Reggio Emilia's Municipality, Unimore - Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Legacoop Emilia Ovest and CGIL Reggio Emilia.
During the presentation outcomes of the trial period will be presented together with the future perspective about this important shared space for the city of Reggio Emilia!
