Italy Mirror gathers periodic surveys dedicated to the international perception of Italy, with particular attention to how Italian political, economic, institutional and social dynamics are observed, interpreted and assessed from abroad.
The surveys are presented within a dedicated section of Osservatorio Italiano, the analysis and applied research structure connected to the editorial and journalistic activity of QUI MILANO.

The purpose of these surveys is not to measure voting intentions, nor to provide a statistical representation of the general population. Their aim is to observe, over time, the evolution of qualified perceptions concerning Italy’s image abroad. The results are treated as interpretative signals, supporting editorial analysis, journalistic articles and further research on the relationship between Italian dynamics, international perception, institutions, business and society.
The surveys may involve readers, professionals, economic operators, experts, international observers and qualified networks reached through the editorial channels of QUI MILANO, Italy Mirror and Osservatorio Italiano. They remain analytical and knowledge-oriented instruments, intended to provide elements for understanding how Italy is perceived, described and discussed beyond its national borders.
In this perspective, ITALY MIRROR serves as a continuing observation tool on Italy’s international reputation, external representations and the main gaps between domestic self-perception, foreign perception and the actual development of political, economic and social phenomena.
