The Italian Academy of Cuisine, which is a Cultural Institution of the Italian Republic since 2003, was founded in Milan on July 29, 1954 by Orio Cergani along with a group of talented experts in the field of culture industry and journalism. Its mission is to defend and protect traditional Italian cuisine, and to promote its diffusion and improvement in Italy and abroad, also through initiatives aimed at spreading a broader understanding of the values of traditional Italian cuisine. The Academy works with public officials, entities, associations, public and private institutions, and it can authoritatively guarantee objectivity and neutrality in its judgements in the field of cuisine thanks to its independence from any and all commercial interests. The Academy pursues its objectives through the activities of its Governing Bodies and the regional and territorial Delegations, of which there are 215 in Italy and 72 abroad, with more than 7,500 members.
