Among others, Arci, Acli, Legambiente, Fuci, Gruppo Abele and Cgil stand out. Each association had its own different history and identity, all sharing the awareness that opposing mafias is a political, social, cultural and ethical task that concerns the whole of civil society. Don Ciotti not only announced the birth of Libera, but also launched a popular petition to collect a million signatures to
allocate assets confiscated from mafia and the corrupt for social use. This initiative attracted the political and social world’s attention to the new-born association. Libera was thus born with a clear, outlined path. Meanwhile, in the following months, meetings and debates continued to outline the association’s profile, a constituent path that, on 25 March 1995, would lead to the approval of Libera Articles of Association and its official establishment at the Cgil headquarters in Rome, in Via dei Frentani. Don Ciotti was appointed national president.
