Focolare Movement

Culture(s) in dialogue

Jun 7, 2018

The first issue of a newsletter dedicated to dialogue, which the Focolare Movement has promoted in various areas of culture, has just come out. It features news, facts, meetings and projects, all from the perspective of unity.

Which culture? What unity? The idea of the newsletter is to tell the story of 12 areas of culture and their journey to seek, question and challenge one another toward a  horizon of unity, following Chiara Lubich’s charism. These are Art, Education, Law, Ecology, Sports, Economics, Sociology, Medicine, Architecture, Politics, Psychology and Communication. If our planet is going through a change of era, as Pope Francis recently declared, the point of view of unity opens up new ground for these areas of culture. For many this will be unexplored and fascinating. The first issue features a number of new initiatives and the most significant events occurring in each part of culture that is “in dialogue.” ________________________________________________________ For more information: Centro per il dialogo con la Cultura (Focolare Movement) centrodialogo.cultura@focolare.org tel. +39.06.945407201 – Via Piave, 15 – 00049 Grottaferrata (Roma – Italia) Key contacts:  Communion and Law    – info@comunionediritto.org Economy of Communion – info@edc-online.org Social-One – info@social-one.org Eco-One – luca.fiorani@gmail.com Dialogues in Architecture  – segr.architettura@focolare.org NetOne – netone@net-one.org Political Movement for Unity – info@mppu.org Psychology and Communion   info@psy-com.org Health Dialogue Culture – healthdialogueculture@gmail.com Clarté – clarte.international@gmail.com Sportmeet – info@sportmeet.org EDU – pedagogia@focolare.org –

With Pope Leo for Dialogue and Peace

“I am not a politician; I speak of the Gospel (…) and to the leaders of the world I say: no more wars.” Pope Leo XIV began his journey to Africa with these words, answering journalists aboard the plane en route to his first stop, Algeria. It is a tireless and courageous commitment to peace, one that the Focolare Movement wholeheartedly supports. Peace and interreligious dialogue were recurring themes in many of the testimonies presented to the Pope, including that of the Focolare community.

Lebanon: the Resistance of Solidarity

The war in Lebanon has caused more than a million people to be displaced, turning the emergency into a widespread and prolonged condition. The testimonies we share, speak of material losses, traumas and a hope that is steadily diminishing. However, a spontaneous network of solidarity is growing, planting ever more genuine seeds of humanity.
