EOF RESEARCH GRANTS
2021/2022 fellowship program
(ENGLISH TEXT ONLY) The 1st EoF Research Fellowship program is open to young doctoral level students in the field of economics or related academic fields, from all countries.
The world cannot be changed without changing practice and above all economic theory. We need a season of new economic thought because today the economy is the “grammar” of social language.
“Certain questions can no longer be deferred. The enormous and urgent task of facing them demands generous commitment in the areas of culture, academic training and scientific research, and a refusal to indulge in intellectual fashions or ideological positions, little islands that isolate us from life and from the real suffering of people”. Pope Francis
The Economy of Francesco aims to help young economists who are committed to or are aspiring to an academic career, to achieve the necessary scientific background in particular with regards to topics of interest to EoF.
To achieve this goal, 10 small research fellowships will be granted for the year 2021/2022 thanks to the donation of an international foundation that prefers to remain anonymous.
This first Research Fellowship programme aims to support and develop the work of the EoF Academy, the international network of scholars formed with the aim of conducting and promoting scientific research on issues relating to the Economy of Francesco. EoF aims to promote other similar initiatives in this field.
THE DEADLINE FOR RECEIVING APPLICATIONS WAS MAY 19. THANK YOU TO ALL THE APPLICANTS WHO SENT THEIR REQUESTS! CANDIDATES WILL BE NOTIFIED OF THE OUTCOME VIA EMAIL BY JUNE 14TH.
The EoF SCHOOL – frontiers
RETHINKING ECONOMICS STARTING FROM THE COMMONS
(ENGLISH TEXT ONLY) The Economy of Francesco School is an online advanced training course on the topics of the Economy of Francesco. Guests of the EoF school will be outstanding persons from academia, the world of business and society. Each speaker will be followed by respondents chosen among the young participants of the Economy of Francesco.
WHAT IF?
What would happen if the courses of Economics taught in the Universities focused their attention on the topics of the commons rather than on private goods? What if the formers become the main object of study and the latter the exception for the economic science? What if the social business, rather than being considered a ‘hybrid’ form of business, becomes the normal approach, and the ethical and green finance rules over the financial sector? Is it possible to move away from the primacy of the consumers to the preeminence of ethical consumers who expresses with their daily choices their preferences for an inclusive, sustainable and workers-friendly economic system?
INSIGHTS
Today, in fact, we have a new certainty: when it comes to the safeguard and custody of the Earth, to commons and relational goods, capitalism does not work. Its rationality based on the search for individual well-being does not know how take care of the planet, of the goods and of human relationships. If we continuously feel that we are owners and masters of the Earth we will only continue to destroy them. The sooner we learn how to use those goods without owning them, the better we become custodians of our only Earth.
In the year 2021, the Economy of Francesco (EoF) offers an advanced online course called “The Economy of Francesco School” to explore Pope Francis’s thought, Franciscan economic roots and institutions, and some of the topics which grounded the EoF Villages. Knowledge, we believe, is one of the most important common goods we should share if we want to improve our lives together. The course will move between the realms of the already and not yet, meaning that it will offer high formation on the conceptual and practical pillars of the Economy of Francesco while remaining open to new perspectives.
