EVENT
You can visit the EoF Global Event page by clicking HERE.
The official language of the event is English, and all plenary sessions will be conducted in English. However, as always, participants and sometimes speakers are welcome to express themselves in their own language during many moments of the event. Several sessions will offer interpretation into Italian, Spanish, French, Portuguese. Some workshops and parallel sessions will also be held in different languages, which will be indicated in the program. In addition, multilingual support is often provided by young volunteers who generously offer their help to facilitate communication.
Sure! On the EoF YouTube Channel, you can find lots of materials, but first of all, we recommend you watch this VIDEO.

After the registration period closes, we will send out a communication to help coordinate those who would like to get in touch with participants from their own country.
EoF Hubs are local groups of people who bring the Economy of Francesco to life in their territories.
