Autonomies for Europe (Italian: Autonomie per l'Europa, ApE) was a regionalist[1] coalition of parties formed in Aosta Valley, Italy in order to participate in the 2019 European Parliament election.

The coalition had a technical agreement with the Democratic Party (PD).[2] ApE's candidate was Marco Gheller,[3] who received also the support of Great North, Pro Lombardy Independence and other minor regional parties of northern Italy.
