How putting customers’ needs first can change a workplace
If I had to give my own definition of unity, I would say it means to make a particular situation or environment friendly and welcoming to everyone, demonstrating a boundless, selfless love for each person and highlighting the good in others. I do my best to try and bring this idea of unity into my workplace every day.
I work with my parents in their Economy of Communion (EoC) pharmacy. EoC businesses strive to promote an economic culture imprinted with communion, gratuitousness and reciprocity. My parents remind me often that my biggest and most important job is to highlight the dignity of every customer and employee, and together with them, help create a loving and accepting environment for all.

With the help of about 30 countries, after a year of work and with the cooperation of hundreds of young people around the world, we collected more than 800 fragments of fraternity: concrete actions that aim at build bridges and to witness that live the Golden Rule transforms themselves, our society, changes our history.
The Atlas of fraternity summarizes the desire to explore the concept of universal fraternity, the desire to live the Golden Rule, highlights hundreds of fraternal activities. This first Atlas is a tool that we share with all!

A sharing of what the Youth for a United World (Y4UW) of Tacloban did for the first anniversary of Typhoon Haiyan. “This is why we sing, why we lift our voice, why we stand as one in harmony.”
With lit candles we sang our prayers as we walked out of the parish to the mass grave right outside it.
We brought the big bouquet of flowers from the stage through the procession to the memorial site at the middle of the mass grave where a choir welcomed us with solemn songs. The parish priest led a prayer after which we put our candles by the graves of the people we lost to the typhoon. This was how we ended our vigil concert.

For the first time the annual Youth-Fest which is held at the Citadel Lia in Argentina, had an encore, the show was repeated in front of a thousand people in a city 900 km. away, Mendoza.
Every year in September in the Citadel Lia, in Argentina, the Youth-Fest is held; this time it was entitled: “Let’s live this madness” which was expressed through a show wherein, in the midst of the celebration of Carnival, it showed how many people, by wearing masks, lose their identity, and become part of an unruly and faceless crowd.
