Observatory of Poverty - OPLA
"Leo Andringa" Observatory of Poverty (OPLA)
To keep Leo Andringa's memory alive, who was among the first ones to grasp the delicacy of the aid distribution process to the needy, the EoC has decided that the newly-formed "Leo Andringa Observatory of Poverty” (Osservatorio sulla povertà Leo Andringa; OPLA) with its headquarters at the Lionello Business Park (Polo Lionello Bonfanti) would be named after him..
OPLA has as its goal to collect the "best practices" (in and outside of the EoC) in fighting poverty, by developing an approach inspired by the values of communion and reciprocity.
Headquarters: Polo Lionello Bonfanti - Loc Burchio snc, 50064 Figline e Incisa Valdarno (FI)
