Along with communities leading their own development
Is working towards a United World a utopia? This is the question that the founders of AMU asked themselves well over thirty years ago, in a world completely different from the one we live in today. Now as then, the dream of unity was the goal to strive for in order to overcome the injustices and imbalances that afflict different peoples and nations – as well as classes or social strata within them – generating marginality and exclusion. What Pope Francis today calls the peripheries.
Hence the ideal of universal brotherhood that becomes an experience to embrace every human being and make us rediscover members of the one great human family, beyond all affiliations, beliefs, status.
How we work
We see each person as the custodian of enormous potential and talents, and at the same time as the bearer of needs to be satisfied in order to be fully realized and thus contribute to the human and social development of their community. For us, human development is a path of integral growth, which is accomplished when all dimensions of the person find fulfillment: physical, psychological, social and spiritual. The dimension of mutual giving is the key to this development process, in which each person can receive what they need and at the same time give in turn what they have: not benefactors and beneficiaries, but many sisters and brothers inserted in this “circuit of universal brotherhood”. We believe, in short, in a development of communion between people and peoples.
