The international exchanges and the relations with foreign cities are among the most cross-cutting activities of the City of Torino. Apart from the International Affairs and European Projects Department, explicitly dedicated to manage international activities, each Councillorship and Department of the Municipality has specific duties and is responsible for projects that must be considered part of the framework of the international affairs of the City of Torino. In 2004 a coordination team was set up to discuss and coordinate the international strategies. Different Departments take part in the team.

The team work, managed by the International Affairs Department, allows the publication of an annual report (.pdf format), a useful and complete tool for displaying the different activities carried out by the City of Torino at the international level.
