The paper presents the acceptation of the idea of “eco-phenomenology” specific to the World Phenomenology Institute, an understanding developed in the course of 50 years of research in the phenomenology of life carried out by its founder, Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka. She brought about the maturation of Husserlian phenomenology from transcendental to eco-phenomenologic by taking a further phenomenological reduction than Husserl had. From such a reduction, which reaches the level of life and therefore enables deeper phenomenological descriptions, arises the vision of transcendental consciousness and related cogitative intentionality as rooted in the human-condition-within the unity-of-everything-that-lives. Starting from here, transcendental phenomenology, having evolved into phenomenology of life, has matured into eco-phenomenology, the genesis and development of which are explained by the ontopoietic logos of life.
