Abstract
In Chapter 5 we described the main characteristics of the Italian law and the parliamentary process that accompanied its design and implementation. Several stakeholders contributed to create the fertile environment to support the approval of the law. In this chapter we focus on the actors involved in the change, and the crucial actions they put in place, which led to what can today be defined as the Italian ‘Women on Board’ model.
