#makeithappen
What’s going on locally, what was born from the meetings and after the November event, particular stories of a territory, perspectives, requests, best practices, projects, work-in-progress initiatives, shared paths and local proposals for today & tomorrow’s new economy. All lived and told by EoF young people: direct witness, and voice, of local communities.
Looking at next October the 2nd 2021 event, we invite all existing Hubs that had organized a local meeting point (virtual or real one) last year or any new territorial centers that want to do the same, to officially accreditate themselves by writing to [email protected] and providing contact details. We are waiting for you!
ITALIA
The Italian EoF community is very active and distributed over multiple regions (almost entirely covering the national territory) with local activities, interregional connections and exchange of good practices. The regional coordinators are about 50 young people committed in spreading the movement and stimulating projects and initiatives to feed the process started.

WHAT’S ON (news from the EoF HUBs)
L’éducation des leaders de demain pour vocation
Last March, in the middle of the month, about twenty young participants of the Economy of Francesco, could share an experiential weekend in the French countryside between pedagogy, spirituality and concrete action
LISTENING, a step in the culture of encounter
Listening, going to meet the other, especially the marginalized. Thus begins the path of collaboration between a group of young Latin Americans and CELAM (Latin American Episcopal Conference).
EoF life in the territories
Almost 70 people responded to the invitation of the Global Call on Thursday 11 March, connecting from 24 different countries, representing the life and experiences they are carrying out in places around the globe, as animators of the spirit of EoF, bringing/dropping the global message in their local realities.
