History
The party was formed by several activist groups involved in environmentalism, civic rights and the arts. It contested the 2012 general election, receiving 6.3% of the vote and winning four seats.[1] Prior to the 2016 general election, the party joined the Democracy in Motion alliance, going on to win eight of the alliance's nine seats.[1][2] The party was part of the Tomorrow in Motion alliance for the 2019 election, in which it won eleven seats. It subsequently formed a coalition government with the Sammarinese Christian Democratic Party and the We for the Republic electoral alliance.[1][3]
In March 2022, Paolo Rondelli of the RETE Movement was appointed as one of the two Captains Regents of San Marino, becoming the first openly LGBTQ+ (specifically openly gay) head of state in the world.[4]
On 14 October 2024, the RETE Movement elected a new leadership consisting of Giovanni Maria Zonzini as secretary, Gabriele Vitali as vice-secretary and Andrea Giani as president. It also announced that it would change its name sometime in the future, as it was no longer a civic movement and had been acting as a political party for most of its history.[5]
