“Transit to a low-carbon energy system but with no one left behind”
“The Energy & Poverty Village has been debating a way of transit to a low-carbon energy system but with no one left behind. We believe and defend a Social Green Deal, a great amount of effort towards a cleaner and more inclusive energy system in harmony with our "Common Home" as defended by Pope Francis”.
The benefit from gratuitousness. A special mindset for performing management practices

“The greatest profit that can be made is the common good”
It does not matter if one analyzes this relationship of vocation from a person or a company; in any case, the important thing is to transcend. [...] It is to understand that from each vocation, the greatest profit that can be made is the common good.
Businesses should be at the service of society
Personally, being part of EoF has been an enriching experience, I believe it's the start of something bigger, meeting and debating with other youth around the globe that have the same worry and curiosity for our economy, placing people at the center and taking into account the environment.
