On the basis of a questionnaire the Working Group on Economic Sustainability analysed the positions of a number of European churches with regard to the social and economic challenges in Europe.The results of this analysis are intended to support the churches in Europe in reflecting their respective positions and finding common responses to the crises. The purpose of the survey is to enable the churches to recognize common ground in spite of the different situations facing each country. They may then want to join forces in order to strengthen their impact.
