The Zone 5 of Milan, since 2016 officially Municipality 5 of Milan, (in Italian: Zona 5 di Milano, Municipio 5 di Milano) is one of the 9 administrative divisions of Milan, Italy.[1]

It was officially created as an administrative subdivision during the 1980s. On 14 April 2016, in order to promote a reform on the municipal administrative decentralization, the City Council of Milan established the new Municipality 5, a new administrative body responsible for running most local services, such as schools, social services, waste collection, roads, parks, libraries and local commerce.[2]

Subdivision

[edit]

The borough includes the following districts:

Municipal government

[edit]

The area has its own local authority called Consiglio di Municipio (Municipal Council), composed by the President and 30 members directly elected by citizens every five years. The Council is responsible for most local services, such as schools, social services, waste collection, roads, parks, libraries and local commerce in the area,[3] and manages funds (if any) provided by the city government for specific purposes, such as those intended to guarantee the right to education for poorer families.

The current President is Natale Carapellese (PD), elected on 3–4 October 2021.

Here is the current composition of the Municipal Council after 2021 municipal election:

Education

[edit]
SDA Bocconi School of Management Campus

The most important university located in the borough is the Bocconi University, founded in 1902 by Ferdinando Bocconi and was named after his son, who died in the Battle of Adwa during the First Italo-Ethiopian War.[4] The university was originally affiliated with the Polytechnic University of Milan engineering school and incorporated a teaching model that was based on what was in use at the École Supérieure of Antwerp.[5]

The university provides education in the fields of economics, finance, law, business administration, management, political science, public administration, information science, data science, and computer science. Bocconi is a founding member of CEMS - The Global Alliance in Management Education, and the university through its graduate business school, SDA Bocconi School of Management, has received triple accreditation from the AACSB, EQUIS, and the AMBA[6] where it offers MBA, Executive MBA, DBA, professional development, executive education, and professional certification programs.
