EoF School 2025
The EoF School arrived at its 5th edition, and it’s ready to change its skin.
What is ‘new’ about it? In a nutshell, there will be fewer lectures with guest speakers (2 sessions) and more lectorials (6 sessions), including active participation of students via fishbowl methodology and breakout rooms, balance between the academic, the entrepreneurial, and change-makers parts, and much more.
Subscribing to this edition means you’ll be part of an engaging and collaborative learning journey, where walking the steps of the Economy of Francesco means exploring some of the core topics the EoF community has focused on over the past five years. Each topic is connected at least to one of the three Francesco of EoF: Pope Francis, St. Francis of Assisi, and all the EoF young community.
In the past years, the EoF School meant listening and learning on various topics by invited speakers. While we will keep that with two Guest Lectures by Kate Raworth and Jennifer Nedelsky, it is time for the school to become a place of education on the EoF topics where everyone is given the opportunity to receive and co-create knowledge. This is why our lectures will become lectorials, i.e., a mix of lectures and tutorials.
During the break-out sessions, students will be grouped into classes according to their interests (academics, entrepreneurs, change-makers), transforming the EoF School from a solitary learning experience into an environment where small communities can emerge and flourish.
