The Economy of Francesco

Cosa c'entra con me l'economia? | Works – Festival del Lavoro
2026-05-06 11:00 - 12:00 (Europe/Rome) | Aula Magna Città della Vittoria, viale Vittorio Emanuele II 70, Vittorio Veneto, Treviso, Italy
Spesso pensiamo che l’economia sia qualcosa di lontano, fatto di numeri, mercati e decisioni prese da altri. In realtà, riguarda molto più da vicino la nostra vita quotidiana. Partendo dalla sua esperienza in Economy of Francesco, Alessandra Fasol racconterà come sia possibile guardare all’economia in modo diverso, mettendo al centro le persone, le relazioni e il bene comune.
Un incontro per scoprire che tutti abbiamo un ruolo attivo nel costruire il mondo di domani e che l’economia non è qualcosa che subiamo, ma qualcosa che possiamo contribuire a cambiare.

L’obiettivo del Forum, che avrà cadenza biennale, è quello di condividere le riflessioni, le azioni, i bisogni di accademici, manager e policy makers, sui temi del Purpose, avendo come riferimento soprattutto le imprese, ma anche le organizzazioni non profit.
L’evento intende approfondire e monitorare il grado di maturità e di “salute” del sistema italiano rispetto alla diffusione e all’integrazione del Purpose nel tessuto economico e sociale del Paese.
Il pomeriggio e la serata di giovedì saranno dedicati soprattutto ai giovani e alle associazioni, e lo stile sarà più informale e di condivisione laboratoriale. Il venerdì, in assemblea, accademici e manager faranno interventi snelli e incisivi, con possibilità di domande da parte dell’assemblea.

Laudato Si', Comunità energetiche solidali
2026-05-15 20:30 - 22:30 (Europe/Rome) | Oratorio Don Bosco di Pavia di Udine, Via Roma 16, Pavia di Udine, UDINE, 33050, Italy
Per un’energia che ci unisce e che genera valore
Gli organizzatori hanno scelto di dedicare un incontro al tema delle Comunità Energetiche Solidali per un duplice motivo: da un lato perché essi sono sono impegnati in azioni di animazione di comunità pensando l’Oratorio come una comunità educante, dall’altro il territorio di Pavia di Udine vive da più di un decennio una trasformazione paesaggistica importante con l’insediamento di molte infrastrutture energetiche (elettrodotto, stazione di trasformazione, centrale di accumulo, parchi fotovoltaici) che rendono quotidianamente evidente la questione della transizione energetica. Le CERS ci sembrano una proposta interessante per stare in questa realtà in modo consapevole, responsabile e propositivo.
Nello specifico il programma prevede degli interventi da parte di membri di Economy of Francesco (dott.ssa Francesca Di Tizio e dr. Arwen Emy Sfregola), CERS San Domenico di Udine, ass. Il Ponte e Circolo Laudato Si’ di Padova.
Target: giovani, educatori, esperti ed interessati al tema delle Comunità energetiche solidali

The gathering fosters collaboration across faiths, sectors, and cultures, bridging Catholics and non-Catholics, business and social impact practitioners, as well as Asia and the Western world. It serves as a platform for cross-cultural dialogue and experimentation in human-centered economic models led by women, with a focus on shared learning and co-creation.
Held in a nature-surrounded resort in Bandung, Indonesia, the program includes Healing & Wellness.
Target: Entrepreneurs & Visionaries: Founders, digital nomads, social workers & community leaders and remote professionals exploring new ways of working and living free. / Purpose Seekers: Women looking to hit pause, connect authentically with international peers, and redefine success on their own terms.
