Trentino Project (Italian: Progetto Trentino, PT) is a regionalist and Christian-democratic political party in Trentino, Italy.

History

PT was formed in July 2012 as a split, led by former regional minister Silvano Grisenti, from the Union for Trentino (UpT).

In the 2013 provincial election, the party supported Diego Mosna, entrepreneur and president of Trentino Volley, for president of Trentino. Mosna was endorsed also by the Trentino Civic List, Stop the Decline, Administer Trentino, Together for Autonomy and Autonomy 2020. Mosna won a 19.3% of the vote, coming a very distant second from Ugo Rossi of the Trentino Tyrolean Autonomist Party, who was supported by the autonomist/centre-left coalition and garnered a landslide 58.1%. However, PT emerged as the fourth largest political force of Trentino, by winning 9.0% of the vote (the UpT got 13.3%) and four provincial councillors plus Mosna, who was elected as best-placed defeated candidate.

In December 2014, during the party's first congress, Marco Bettega was elected president to replace Mauro Dorigoni.

In March 2015, Grisenti was convicted of corruption and, as a result, temporarily abandoned politics. The PT participated in the subsequent Trento municipal election in coalition with Lega Nord Trentino (LNT), Trentino Civic List (CT), Forza Italia and the Brothers of Italy: in the event, the party won 3.8% of the vote, less than most of its coalition parties.

In January 2016, during the party's second congress, Marino Simoni was elected as new president. In April the PT signed a federative pact with the Populars for Italy (PpI), a minor Christian-democratic party represented in Parliament.

In the 2018 provincial election, the PT was part of the autonomist/centre-right coalition. Maurizio Fugatti of the LNT was elected president of Trentino and PT, with its 3.2%, was the coalition's third largest party. PT's Mario Tonina was appointed acting vice president by Fugatti, after the death of CT's Rodolfo Borga (who was supposed to function as vice president, due to CT's 4.6% of the vote), Tonina's appointment became permanent.

In March 2019, during the party's third congress, Grisenti was elected president.

In the 2023 provincial election, the party ran in a joint list with the Trentino Tyrolean Autonomist Party and Popular Autonomists, in support of Fugatti's re-election. In the election, Fugatti was re-elected and the autonomist joint list obtained 8.2% of the vote and three councillors, including Tonina.
