Eli Faghali

Eli Feghali is an Arab immigrant from Beirut, Lebanon whose parents, Romy and Bernard, fled their homeland when he was two to escape civil war. Eli organized in Tennessee in the migrant justice movement, then on the streets of Boston during the Occupy Wall Street uprising. It was on those streets that he was introduced to cooperatives and the idea of the solidarity economy. For more than a decade, Eli has worked with the New Economy Coalition (NEC), a network building the power of the solidarity economy movement in the US. Through his roles at NEC, Beautiful Solutions, and the board of YES! Magazine, Eli works to tell the story of another world under construction. Eli and Rachel live together in Cambridge, MA with their daughter Maya Silver.
