a papal encyclical, Fratelli Tutti is a reflection on Pope Francis' 'Fratelli Tutti' and its publication in 2020 in the midst of interrelated global crises. Including responses from a diversity of locations and perspectives, the scholars seek to model Francis's call to fraternity and sorority and embody a creative openness to the reciprocal gifts of others. Pope Francis' encyclical provided both a sobering assessment of the crises and a hopeful vision of solidarity and healing. Francis' vision is taken forward by the scholars in this volume, answering the invitation to continue talking, thinking, and acting in a climate of confidence and audacity and to promote social friendship among the people of the world.
