Franciscan Mediterranean Network
The Franciscan Network of the Mediterranean is woven by men and women, lay and religious people of
the Franciscan family committed to the issues of migration and refuge, dialogue/peace, and young people.
May the Mediterranean stop being a place of death and become OIKOS,
space of life and welcome for all the people who pass through it.
