Conclusion of the 8th National Festival of Civil Economy
Overview
The eighth National Festival of Civil Economy in Florence concluded on October 4, centered on the theme ‘EUconomia. L’economia che fa bene, il rumore della foresta che cresce’. The event brought together over 4,000 participants, including entrepreneurs, academics, and Nobel laureates such as Shirin Ebadi and Philippe Aghion, to discuss equitable and sustainable development.
Discussions emphasized integrating economic activity with social cohesion and the stewardship of common goods. Participants addressed modern challenges including inequality, inflation, wage poverty, and the climate crisis, highlighting the importance of relational intelligence, trust, and cooperation in creating shared value beyond traditional market exchanges.
The proceedings recognized excellence in community-driven governance through several awards. The ‘National Civil Economy Municipalities 2026 Award’ was presented to the municipalities of Melpignano and Capergnanica. The ‘Shared Administration Award’ honored projects including Roma Capitale’s ‘Dalla soglia all’abitare’ for its work with the homeless, Arpal’s ‘Camper del Lavoro’ in Puglia, and the ‘Radici’ project in the Marche region. The Red Cross in Bagni di Lucca was also recognized for its role in social welfare and public policy partnership.
