In Bologna, on April 15, the first national assembly of riders took place to organise accross cities the struggle for better working conditions in the food-delivery sector. This follows the many strikes and actions that were organised by riders in the region, in Turin and Bologna in particular.

The assembly took place shortly after a verdict was issued in Turin, giving right to Foodora againt the riders who took the company to court for stopping employing them after their participation in the struggle in 2016, in which they had fought for fair working conditions.

"It's clear that the juridical path is not the only one. The proof is this assembly. There is the path of organising, of figthing and of politics. This verdict does not stop us, it might even give us new impetus." (from the video).
