Identity and Action (Italian: Identità e Azione, IdeA), also known as IdeA Movement (Movimento IdeA), is a conservative political party in Italy, whose membership stretches from Christian democracy to conservative liberalism.
The party's leader is Gaetano Quagliariello, a former minister of Institutional Reforms.
IdeA allows "double membership", meaning that its members can also be members of other parties.
The party was formed as a "movement" on 25 November 2015 by a group of splinters from the New Centre-Right (NCD), a centre-right party which was then part of government led by Matteo Renzi, leader of the centre-left Democratic Party (PD).
Two deputies (Vincenzo Piso and Eugenia Roccella) and four senators (Andrea Augello, Luigi Compagna, Carlo Giovanardi and Gaetano Quagliariello) left the NCD because they no longer supported its alliance with the PD. They were joined by two deputies, Guglielmo Vaccaro (ex-PD, later Unique Italy–IU) and Renata Bueno (South American Union Italian Emigrants–USEI), and several regional politicians, including Davide Bellomo (independent, Apulia), Stefano Casali (Tosi List for Veneto, Veneto), Gianni Chiodi (independent, former President of Abruzzo) and Vittoriano Solazzi (Marche 2020, Marche).
