Nature and the Environment in the Compact on Education: Beauty Makes Man Good

At the Antonianum in Rome, from 14 to 16 January 2020, a three-day event will be held within the "Rebuilding the Global Compact on Education" initiative.
 
From January 14 to 16, 2020, the Pontifical Antonianum University, together with the Pontifical St. Bonaventure Seraphicum School of Theology, will be organizing an academic event entitled, Nature and the Environment in the Compact on Education: Beauty Makes Man Good, as part of the Rebuilding the Global Compact on Education initiative promoted by the Congregation for Catholic Education.

The event endorsed by the Franciscan University comes in the wake of the Holy Father Francis’ invitation "to dialogue on how we are shaping the future of our planet and the need to employ the talents of all, since all change requires an educational process aimed at developing a new universal solidarity and a more welcoming society". The aim is to investigate the meaning and value of education considering the pressures coming from the environmental crisis, to redefine our educational project in the light of integral ecology.
