In addition, EoF posters will be presented from 2:30 p.m. to 4 p.m., showcasing projects related to EoF Global [and some portuguese initiatives as well] that embody and promote a transformative economy, one that sustains life instead of destroying it, humanizes rather than dehumanizes, and nurtures creation rather than devastating it.
