Italian Lives (ITA.LI) is a quantitative and qualitative longitudinal survey carried out by the Department of Sociology and Social Research of the University of Milan-Bicocca. The survey is aimed at building a database on social change in Italy offering high-quality data to researchers working in several disciplinary fields. The longitudinal qualitative survey was carried out in 3 waves at regular intervals between October 2019 and July 2022. In total, 306 semi-narrative interviews were carried out with young people aged between 22 and 29, resident in Italy.
