logo_edc_benvThe Economy of Communion (EOC) involves entrepreneurs, workers, managers, consumers and financial operators. It was launched by Chiara Lubich in May of 1991, in Sao Paolo, Brazil, with the aim of building and showing a human society where, following the example of the first Christian community in Jerusalem, "no one among them was in need".

The businesses are the pillar of the project. They freely commit themselves to put their profits in common, dividing them into three parts with the following corresponding goals:

point-color.gifSupport the development of persons and communities that find themselves in need, through shared projects based on reciprocity, subsidiarity and communion;
point-color.gifSpread the culture of giving and of reciprocity, a pre-condition to integral development and of an economy and  society characterized by fraternity and solidarity;
point-color.gifDevelopment of the business, creating jobs and wealth, orienting all internal and external business life towards the common good.

In addition, the EOC gives life to "industrial poles", or parks, in the small towns of the Focolare Movement, aiming at showing an industrial district at its origin, a living laboratory of an economy of communion.

What's new about the project?

The EoC:

  • Emanates from a spirituality of communion, an expression of the charism of unity in civil life;
  • Links effectiveness and fraternity;
  • Relies on the strength of the culture of giving to change economic behavior;
  • Does not consider the poor mainly as a problem, but as a precious resource for the Common Good.
