Un Ponte Per (A Bridge to) is an Italian-based humanitarian organization created in the aftermath of the first Iraq War in 1991. Its purpose is to oppose the domination of the Southern countries of the world by those of the North and to prevent further conflict, particularly in the Mideast. In addition to its activities in the Middle East, it opened a second zone of operations in the former Yugoslavia.
Two female staff members, Simona Pari and Simona Torretta, both aged 29, were kidnapped in Iraq on September 7, 2004. A terrorist group named Jihad Organization of Iraq claimed responsibility.
