The 19th General Chapter adopted integral ecology as a fundamental axis of our mission that connects the pastoral, liturgical, formation, social, economic, political and environmental dimensions (AC ’22, 30). These are relatively new concepts and terminology, which might be off-putting to some. The difficulty lies in the fact that we are dealing with a complex reality, which cannot be reduced to simplifications and slogans. For this we refer to reading chapter IV of the encyclical Laudato si’, which gives an articulate restitution.
However, in order to facilitate an agile familiarisation with the reality of integral ecology, the General Secretariat of the Mission has produced 5 simple sheets to answer the most recurrent questions:

  1. Where does integral ecology come from?
  2. What is integral ecology?
  3. How does integral ecology work?
  4. What is ecological conversion?
  5. What does integral ecology have to do with mission?
