Our Vision of Europe
A united and multifaceted Europe with strong social cohesion in cultural diversity. Our diversity should no longer be a reason for fear or separation. We live for a Europe that does not suppress them, but rather rediscovers them as riches and develops and harmonises them.
A Europe animated by fraternity. To spread this Europe we offer the fruits of our Gospel-based love: sharing of goods and resources; equality and freedom for all; openness to those with other cultures and religious traditions. This lifestyle can be an inspiration for bolder choices in all fields.
A Europe that becomes itself a ‘message of peace’, a bridge between peoples. We build it by living as reconciled people in our daily lives and committing ourselves to promoting a culture of encounter.
A democratic, participatory Europe. The awareness that each of us is a unique and unrepeatable subject, with an irrepressible vocation for relations, makes each one a resource for building new forms of responsible democratic participation, for constructive relations between citizens and institutions.
A Europe aware of its responsibilities and open to the world.
