Details
Also available:  Español   Français 

This "Letter to Francis" is the document that the popular movements will present to the "Economy of Francis" event, scheduled for next November, as a proposal for alternative dialogue to the current "predatory system". It was presented at the World Meeting of People's Movements and the Vatican on October 24, 2020 by Marina Oliveira, Juliane Furno, Andrés Cappa and Jean Jores who stressed that "the socio-environmental crisis cannot be overcome within the framework of the current system that idolizes money."

Therefore, this alternative proposal basically involves placing "women, men and nature at the centre" of political decisions in the face of the idolatry and power of money that prevails. The popular movements, which recognise "the breadth of Francis' thought", propose "a vision that we consider to be in harmony with the radical nature of his teachings and the revolutionary nature of the Christian faith". A proposal based on five axes: Integral ecology and common goods; Economic democracy; Land, housing and work; Education, health, communication and technology; Sovereignty, human mobility and peace and which has as its origin "the documents elaborated in the three meetings of popular movements, the various national and regional meetings held by community organizations and the interventions of Pope Francis on various subjects.
